Well, there might be other meetings more to your liking.....
I've actually never met a fanatic that I liked. Many claim a higher calling. And
I of course, consider that bullshit. I accept that not all thumpers are so ... I
've found, though that if you cross a fanatic, that serving attitude lies on a
very thin edge and can quickly become abusive hate including violence. ...

God NO!!! Not another side.
I am pointing out my observations about your style of argument. Sorry you can't
deal with it. Of course anyone who takes you to the task is 'incapable' Grace.
That's you level of argument and it speaks for your integrity. Don't cross a
fanatic like you, right? Garbaby Oh Waaaaaa! Grace.

Men & Depression Newsweek
I think he is a run of the mill fanatic, without ability to see more than one
side. You can write 'depression' is a post and it draws him like a fly to light.
LOL, we *all* have our favorites. But then tedw thinks there is no such thing as
alocholism, so I guess Virt thinking there is no such thing as depression, ...

Sponsor cult (Jim)
I am pretty well convinced that any fanatic (or borderline fanatic..heh) ,
whether it be AA or religious or political is a sick puppy. Mentally ill. I
think I was myself mentally ill, though not a fanatic, and that's why I drank
the way I did.....because I could not deal with reality in a way that I could
adjust as ...

believe is "The Program." They've heard others put down because of their
decision ...

Moral Superiority
Skyjumper is...@seecoast.com alt recovery aa Wow Gary! I'm not seeing anything
in Buddy's post to warrant that kind of reaction. I think he pretty much nailed
it on the head. When you read what people write, all of it, over a period of
time, it pretty much pieces together a profile of who they are and what they ...

1994 Changing Reposted
I find that too many of those who become fanatic or near fanatic about AA have
this funny little tendency to be "holier than thou", more right than thou. Some
are mean spirited and they are 'allowed' to stay that way...sad for AA. I don't
agree (didn't say like) with the one's who characterize their experience as ...

have no time for fanatics. Their minds are closed to beliefs or concepts other
