I didn't read through the whole thread, but for me, it is a choice. Not a disease, not a sin per say, but a choice which is given to me. I didn't go the big book route, though I do go to a weekly meeting it is more for fellowship amongst those also in recovery. I went the AVRT route, and for me, alcohol is the monster that is trying to defeat me. I made the choice to fight the monster instead of continuing down the scary path it was taking me.
