I have a question for those of you knowledgeable with AVRT. Please forgive me if it was covered in one of the previous threads, I just can't go through them all.

I've read some people who adopt AVRT dismiss alcohol as being immoral, thereby changing the way they inherently think about alcohol generally. If stealing is immoral, I'm just not going to do it. Same with lying or murder or any number of things. I understand the importance of this tactic.

However, as much as I identify with other features of AVRT, I can't identify with this one. If other people enjoy alcohol, I don't consider them immoral for it. Even those who become drunks or addicts, I don't consider them immoral people inherently for that fact alone.

From what I've read, though, coming to a place where alcohol is immoral, point blank, is a pretty important element of AVRT's success. At least from what I've taken away from other posters in these threads. Am I reading too much into this? Can anyone comment?
