First off, I've said it before on this forum, and now I'll say it again-As an AA member it is not my job to convince anyone that AA is the right way. It is the right way for me, I do know that. I do have to agree that an alcoholic can touch another alcoholic in a way that most non-alcoholics can't.
But, to reiterate what I've said before, I'm for any method or approach that helps an alcoholic recover-follow your conscience or your heart, if you will.
And, IrishVirus, I don't believe that "having the brains," as you you say has much to do with an alcoholic's inability to stop, at least not on a level of pure reason. If being intelligent was enough, I'd have been sober long before my sobriety date.
Regards,
Jim
