Why not give your old man some credit, Sack? He decided to stop the boozing himself. He did it. Yay.

Just because something has been around a while doesn't mean it works. Reiki and reflexology and any kind of "energy" work and psychics attest to that. Seventy years is nothing. Has AA helped people? Yes. But the fact remains that the success rate for sobriety is 5% with or without AA. It makes no difference.

And AA references God (capital "G") all the time. Don't tell me that it doesn't have any "affiliation", because in Step 3 of your non-affiliated group, you have to have, "Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God as we understood him." It's still religion, Sack.

I'm not your "dear fellow" and research is something you should not be lecturing me about, Mr. Plageriser. I've done mine, now bugger off.
