[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All AA is like that.  It is a crazy cult and it doesn't work.  Ask Google about it.[/quote]

+1 I predict this doesn't mix well with the atheist pov about reality - AA involves a LOT of magical thinking...kind of like alcoholism.  [/quote]

I will have to look into it more. What I've learned is he doesn't control how much he drinks. He doesn't currently have the self control to just stop drinking after 4 beers. He has to drink 12.

The pragmatist in me thinks it's completely unrealistic for someone our age to never drink again, with the weddings and vacations and social events we are attending all the time. He will be surrounded by it on a regular basis. I think one should focus more energy on retraining yourself to learn how to drink responsibly. Isn't that what they do in Europe? [/quote]

I suggest you do some reading about what happens to a person's brain when they reach the point of being an addict or alcoholic. Also, 4 drinks? What about limiting it to 1 to 2. Why do you believe that 4 is reasonable?[/quote]
