I agree with that. And I also think the nature of spirituality is subjective. It's just never going to be easily defined. So while our spirituality can be unique, we are not unique as addicts and alcoholics. I mean, yes, there are differences there but we all have addiction in some form going on in the brain, right? Humans are arguably spiritual beings, but we (here on SR) are inarguably addicted to alcohol (or drugs, or X). That's how I see it anyway.
