Because it is?

Oh, they can claim "spiritual, not religious" all they want, but in the Big Book chapter "Into Action", ir reads, "Our real purpose is to fit ourselves to be of maximum service to God…"

Cult members usually won’t admit to being in a cult, but some AA members are so far gone they say, "Well, if it’s a cult, I’m glad to be a cult member" and "Brainwashed? My brain needed a good washing".

I haven’t had a drink in about 3 years. If I went to an AA meeting, hearing all that religious crap and all those sad stories, makes me FEEL LIKE HAVING A DRINK!!!. So forget that. They must be avoided for me to stay sober.
P.S.. I tried clicking your link but the page wasn’t available.

People say that when they drink and won't admit that they could have a problem.

AA is a good program. It helped me sober up.

Because most of the 12 points of the Alcoholic Anonymous are related to enroll you in the faith. AA is like a Marine recruitement facility. It preys on the weak.
