Everything Happens for a Reason....or DOES IT!? Also: Religion, philosophy, quantum mechanics and Schrodinger’s cat AND MORE!

RMA-Episode 89 Show Notes:

 

RMA-Episode 89: Everything happens for a reason. Or does it? This week on RMA, Mike and Nat discuss this old bromide, how it pertains to recovery, and whether or not believing that there is a master plan for your life helps or hurts you stay sober. It’s a far ranging discussion that touches on religion, philosophy, quantum mechanics and Schrodinger’s cat, with a little Repo Man thrown in for good measure.

 

We also have a Monkster’s Speak, a new listener asks for some advice, and a rundown of summer vacations past and future. It’s two hours of RMA, coming straight into your earholes.

If you’re in trouble with substance abuse and need help, reach out. There are thousands of people who have put problems with addiction in their rear-view mirrors and you can be one of them. While we neither endorse nor condemn any particular program, the sheer number of available AA and NA meetings suggest that reaching out to those organizations would be a good first step on the road to recovery.
