I know its already been said but I need to reiterate that this is incredibly offensive. Its not to say that I'm surprised or that I haven't heard things like this before. I seem to recall you making a similar offensive remark to me in a thread the other week. I'd ask you to have a more open mind about these kind of things but I feel that that appeal would fall on deaf ears.

In a sense you make AA look pretty bad with statements like these. If AA would only look attractive to an atheist after they've been made desperate through more drinking, that doesn't make much of an argument for its universal applicability. You also know for a fact that if a person rejects AA they need not just go away and die. There's plenty of alternative methods out there and many people are able to get it together on they're own.
