I can imagine that it's a psychological advantage for AA members (or others in other types of therapy) to imagine that there is a force outside themselves that is assisting ... since they have themselves been such miserable failures at assisting themselves.


I think, for the most part, that's a fantasy. But so what? If it's a mental construct that works, I don't see the problem with it ... for those willing to indulge in it.




And for those who truly believe in an aiding spiritual force, and are not just adopting that belief on a temporary basis to help with their little problem ... well, they're completely right. There is.
