seriously totally not the christian God. The 12 step prayer may be BASED on a prayer to Jesus but they totally modified it and now it is religion neutral (it can be any God after all ... well provided it is a single male God). of course we also have the good old Lords prayer, another primary feature of 12 step meetings! Some straight up scientifically proven anti addiction medicine right there. There is NO OTHER CURE to addiction (ie: having used drugs ever). Nothing works at all except turning your life over to JEBUS HALLELUJAH AMEN LAWDY LAWDY. Of course there ARE competing ideas to cures for addiction, I have heard from reliable sources that turning your life over to THE CHURCH OF SCIENTOLOGY and paying them to audit away all of the frozen volcano alien souls implanted in you by LORD XENU (the one male alien supreme lord of the universe) to cause your addictive ways can also work, but I am not sure how many steps NARCONON has.
