And while I do fully embrace that concept, it seems like again the book is kind of flip-flopping in this chapter on whether or not that's the truth, that the fact that it's telling this to a person who it has told should absolutely be making the assumption that their employee is an alcoholic needs to hear the messages of this book.
Imagine diving into a chapter of a book that feels like a relic from another era. In this episode of 'An Atheist Reads the Big Book of AA', Josh C takes on the chapter 'To Employers'. Known for its peculiar content and historical quirks, this chapter isn't just another section of the Big Book; it's a piece penned by Hank Parkhurst, not Bill Wilson. Josh unpacks why this chapter stands out, both for its oddities and its insights.
He doesn't shy away from pointing out the outdated views on alcoholism and employer-employee relationships, making you question how much of the Big Book still holds up today. If you're curious about how employers can genuinely support their employees struggling with alcoholism, this episode offers some food for thought. Josh's analysis is engaging, critical, and refreshingly honest, making it a must-listen for anyone interested in the evolving landscape of addiction recovery.
