Re: The \"disease\" of alcoholism.
[ QUOTE ]
"Cult" is probably too strong a term. Twelve step programs seem to be effective for some people, and as such should be given credit, but AA people tend to be annoyingly dogmatic, and many seem to believe that their way of dealing with alcoholism and other addictions is the only way, which is certainly not true.

Effective for some people, but grossly ineffective in general. Its not like there are significantly better alternatives, but AA has a dismal success rate.
