you sure use a lot of words to say so little... let's see if i can condense it for you...
basically what you are saying is that AA is a bunch of mumbo jumbo that doesn't work... and that you the great world reknown scientist/biologist promote the use of kudzu and/or different herbs/chemicals/drugs to overcome alcoholism right... well... what you are promoting still comes under the heading of chemical dependence...
and what happens when the time arrives that you find yourself out in the middle of nowhere without your kudzu/herbs/drugs to save you... what then... because real alcoholics of my type will be obsessed with the urge to drink for a very long time and it is something that just doesn't go away by itself...
personally you seem to me to be like so many others that so all fired anxious to voice their opinion regardless of their lack of experience... even if it kills someone... the thing about real alcoholics is that they share "experience... strength and hope"... and not merely opinions...
if i seem to be coming on strong it is because i feel strongly that you are wrong and would wish that in the future you would take your posts to the forum that deals with "alternative methods for the treatment of alcoholism"...
thank you and have a wonderful day...
