If you didn’t see our last blog, you missed the federal ruling which made it unconstitutional to require an atheist to complete a 12 step rehab program. I am all in favor of 12 step programs. Personally, I think they are a great way to stay clean and sober. The point is they are, in fact based on faith in a higher power. And for most, that is God. Non 12 step rehab programs understand that 12 step programs are not treatment. And the odds are a serious drug addict and or alcoholic does not want to hear that God is the answer, even it is true.
