Its not about whats a better or worse addiction or what depravities people get up to. Alcohol and heroin can both take people to the end of the line and will at the chronic stages. Usage patterns and behaviour may vary along the way

Both can cause depravity, my point is that I would never let someone who is an addict sponsor an alcoholic like me because I can't identify as well as an alcoholic. It's about experience. Likewise I wouldn't sponsor an non alcoholic/addict because he won't relate to me.
