I suggest you quit drugs and marry a nice girl. Maybe get into NA or something for the drugs.

- rosser 10y agoWhile I assume you mean well, the heteronormativity of your comment alone is just ... wow. Frankly, this reads, to me, like telling a homeless person to get a job.
- CamperBob2 10y agoIsn't NA basically a Scientology front? That said, it's interesting to note that for most of recorded history, the #1 recommendation to someone in cubano's position would be to join the locally-favored religion. Without that option -- as objectively bogus as it is -- the chances of getting his/her life back on track may be lower than they historically have been.
- DigitalJack 10y ago"Isn't NA basically a Scientology front?" What? I haven't heard that one before.
- nyolfen 10y agoNarconon[1] is a Scientology front. Not to be confused with Narcotics Anonymous [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Narcanon https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Narcanon
- late2part 10y agoI've never heard or read anyone say or suggest that Scientology runs NA besides you.
- CamperBob2 10y agoI think nyolfen's right, Narcotics Anonymous and Narcanon are two different orgs.
- atsaloli 10y agoI think you are confusing Narcotics Anonymous www.na.org with Narcanon (the name comes from Narco Non - as in, no drugs) http://www.narconon.org/about-narconon/ http://www.narconon.org/about-narconon/ which is based on the works of L. Ron Hubbard. I have a relative that completed the Narconon program in Melbourne.
