  12 Step Free is a discussion list for those who have left the AA groups or are seriously questioning the 12-step doctrine. Perhaps our most important function is to provide a place where many can dare be critical and not be accused by a "unanimous majority" of groupers of suffering from a "defect of character" for doing so.
