There are a variety of nonreligious, non 12 step programs that offer a more practical, secular approach to staying sober, some of which dispute the "disease" model of addiction.  Rational Recovery (RR) and SOS are two such organizations.  I was involved briefly with both of these organizations in the past, and I found them to be refreshing alternatives to AA, without the religious baggage.

Or you could view it as human anthropomorphic interpretation of animal behavior, when said behavior does not in fact map to the human behavior of 'smiling'. Much like, say, a religious interpretation of other natural phenomena as the expression of the will and emotion of an anthropomorphic god...  thinking

You may believe that you are responsible for what you do, but not for what you think. The truth is that you are responsible for what you think, because it is only at this level that you can exercise choice. What you do comes from what you think.

Son of Man said..... "With tens of thousands of Christian denominations, that means that at least 99.99% are wrong to some degree and I would imagine that this would be unsettling for a lot of Christians. 99.99% is very close to 100%.". I'm in the .01% crowd.

Well, it is hard to live effectively in today's world, if your morality is:  Love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your mind, and with all your soul; and Love your neighbor as yourself.

But we weren't called to live effectively.  Just to be obedient.  Things get messy sometimes, but it's still the best way to live, IMO.   smiley

If it cost $1 million to make a first loaf of bread, but every loaf of bread after that was close to free because you could just make a copy, how much should a loaf of bread cost, and why shouldn't everyone get fed?

If humans created God in their own image, it makes sense to talk about God's mind. I don't see otherwise, how we'd even assume that god would have a "mind" at all. Would an all powerfull being benefit from something as physicaly limited as a mind such as ours?
