Considering the vast majority of people who have overcome addictions with the help of religion and a religious community, "completely baseless claims of wellness" is pretty exaggerated no?



Any citation on the vast majority of people who have overcome convictions have done it with religion? I don't think court ordered AA really counts.


This seems pretty interesting https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6759672/ . I didn't read the full paper, but based off the introduction it seems to be a study of how religion helps people overcome addition.


The study was done by someone from the Institute for Studies of Religion. I am not convinced.
