| Jun 16, 2022 at 23:37 | comment | added | Omegacron | I feel the need to point out that "Bible-thumpers", as you refer to them, are actually just uptight people with control issues. Anyone who's actually read the Bible would know that it never prohibits drinking - it merely points out the dangers of drunkenness. | |

| Jun 15, 2022 at 14:49 | comment | added | Thomas Darcy Jackson | AA is a safe space for alcoholics. It's not for people who on one occasion realised they had too much to drink and stopped. Alcoholics, more-or-less by definition, can't do that. Any toxic-ness would be caused by the person who shouldn't be there, going. It would be the equivalent of a healthy person wasting a doctors time. | |

You could check with your closest colleage (out of which were present) if the other people were actually offended, if you were really out of line, etc. I can happen that people took your comments as funny, provocative in a good way, etc. | |
| Jun 15, 2022 at 10:09 | comment | added | Jasper | I hope at AA you don't actually get laughed out the door. That would be pretty toxic, and it's a place that basically has no reason to exist if it's not a safe space. | |
