this post really speaks to my fears about AA--that it's a cult, that it pushes God/monotheism/religion on you, and that it replaces one form of pathology with another.

I'm also having problems with the 'slogans'...some of them seem very 1984 or Brave New World, in that they really don't make a whole hell of a lot of sense without the brainwashing/indoctrination/whatever. They are not really complete thoughts, ya know?


First Things First
Live and Let Live
Easy Does It
Let Go and Let God
One Day at a Time
Listen and Learn
How Important Is It?
Keep an Open Mind


Anyway...I'm not completely done with exploring Alanon. I'll try the 6 meetings and then make up my mind. (Assuming I still have a mind to make up at that point...)
