If AA does not work for you, that's cool, find something that will work for you, check out secular connections here on this site, there are people who are sober and happy and share your sentiment. Focus on finding a solution that will work for you instead of wasting energy poking shots at a program you don't like.
Fair enough but you have to agree that some people are so far gone that they require very agressive interventions. I have a female cousin who had to be involuntarily committed by the crisis intervention team and a court order or she would have drank herself to death. Quoting nonsense like someone should drink until their done would not have helped her.
