You can discuss methodology in the alcoholism or substance abuse forums or in What is Recovery forum.If it's related to an article the News forum would be ok too
Someone posted something regarding AA in the secular forum and was redirected to the newcomers' forum.
If it's a recent thread where I directed them. you're misremembering
The secular forum is for the discussion of secular methods. The 12 step secular forum is for the discussion of AA/NA from a secular standpoint.
We set things up that way so that people can discuss their way of recovery without threads being routinely closed cos other people arc up etc.
Noones getting gagged
