Is AA/NA a cult?

I'm finding more and more, that both AA and NA are (perhaps) ... inadvertent cults.

Some people's views on this subject are laughable and have no foundation, however other people's points of view are interesting, and fit societies definition of a cult, perfectly.

Again, I don;t believe that these programs were ever disigned to be a cult. It's simply something that I believe..........is.

there is no room for "edit" regarding the big book or the NA literature. I must be accepted as 100 percent truth. Those who question, are not yet "learned".

...meetings, the traditions and the 12 steps are drilled into our heads, as the "ultimate" fullfilment of life, for the addict or alcoholic.

I've noticed that there are people who will sacrifice food and rent to go to a world meeting. .........wtf?

IT would be nothing but foolish to deny the help that AA/NA has done for the addict/alcoholic. Many people are living on this earth(as opposed to) being in a grave, because of aa/na.

But I wonder.......................


ps, this isn;t a case of the f-it's.
