the basic jist of it:
"She said a religious approach to treating addiction is the only solution.
"Law enforcement is helpless. They can't possibly bust every lab. They can't keep them in jail long enough for them to heal," Holley said. "Education is helpless. They lack the resources and the moral authority to change the situation."
Tennessee is among 14 states picked by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services to receive grants for expanded drug abuse treatment. Gov. Phil Bredesen, who plans to propose meth-battling initiatives in 2005, said much of the $17.8 million will be used for treatment.
Bredesen's meth task force has recommended using "faith-based and community-based treatment options."
"I don't see a lot of success with the secular programs," Holley said. "They have diluted God out of it. As they have diluted God out of it, they have diluted their effectiveness. Christian rehab centers that keep them for a full year have about 80 percent rate keeping them clean long term. Secular is 20 to 30 percent."
i think this is bullshit

| do the secular rehab centers keep them for a year ? This is not stated..
Personally I think going to any "christian" center for a whole year sounds more like joining a cult than going to rehab... I bet they teach them about how abortion is wrong too... |

| I think the positive affirmation and reinforcement spread from the morals and ethics from religion can be extremely powerful. We are not speaking of worshipping establishment, loving a being that sits upon a throne, but of an ideology to love one's self before one can maneuver its way out of hell.
I respect any program that is helpful to people in need. A shame you people find this amusing. |
