Can these people do AA, and truly live according to the 12 steps even though they are greedy and dishonest??
No they cannot...the program of AA iswork the steps, get spiritual awakening and then go andlive a happy life...the sponsors job to guide a person through working the steps to get their spiritual awakening...thats it!

Can you go to meetings and hang off of them to stay sober whilst still being dishonest...some can...for a while...
