Just sharing my experience, saw it happen many, many times. I have seen people just rely on religion and cut back on meetings and stopped doing the steps, and relapse.

Seriously ???

so why deprive someone else of their understanding.

No one said they were depriving them of their understanding..no where was that said.
I do believe jumping to conclusions is not real good physical exercise. lol

Tho the question is..how do you really and truly know..honestly KNOW persons were in fact relying only on religion? I was told that several times..weeks maybe months later they came back to make amends because it was an untruth. They were looking for any excuse to run out the door and bash AA to say it wasn't working

Can anyone honestly say what another says is the gospel truth...We can only share our very own ESH and what works for us individually. And all we can do for others is give suggestions and pray for them.

As for me and my house...as the BIBLE says.."I will serve the Lord" and still attend meetings and serve God by working with others.
