        @SamHarrisOrg @gregmepstein I've attended several SMART meetings. It employs cognitive behavioural therapy. I found it useful and effective.

        @SamHarrisOrg @gregmepstein AA probably has an appallingly low success rate, although they don't keep any statistics of course.

        @SamHarrisOrg Plenty of atheists in AA. I don't think a "secular alternative" is necessary. AA may not work for all, but it does work.

        @SamHarrisOrg @gregmepstein AA and other "step programs" models are all wrong. They still put blame and responsibility on the addict.

        @SamHarrisOrg @gregmepstein Instead of working with genetic and psychological issues that land people in that position.

        @SamHarrisOrg @gregmepstein Regular AA is fine for recovery. DO WHATEVER WORKS 4 U. & substitute "higher power" with "@RichardDawkins " ;-)

        @SamHarrisOrg @gregmepstein AA dictates not what higher power can be. can be the wisdom in the universe or a tree. alternatives unnecessary.
