if you can show me that aa is broken then i might reconsider but as it stands aa is as good now as its always been it saves people lives, its often the last place anyone will go to for help but that ok its still around and doing well,
Changing AA is not what the film is about, but I almost hesitate to tell you that, because you are so sure about your assumptions.
Asking you to consider that you might be closed minded, has everything to do with your judgement of something before you investigate it. Ya know the old "contempt prior to investigation" thing? My suggestion that you might be closed minded has nothing to do with the difference between our opinions.
The film is not saying that
AA people should be public about their
AA participation. Rather it's suggesting that they consider being public about being "
in recovery". If you saw the film you might understand that, but you already seem to know all about the film before seeing it. Who am I to argue?
