I really firmly believe this is a disease, and you have it or you don't. So even though my parents didn't drink and so they didn't have any influence on that, it wouldn't have been their fault anyway, in my opinion. It wasn't just my immediate family, but my aunts, my uncles, everybody went to church. Even though they weren't the same churches, it was just a common thing. And I didn't even think about it. And it was kind of frowned upon if I didn't go. And so sometimes I would skip. I didn't know any of that. I didn't know any of that until I came to AA, in which, you know, a lot of people say that God brought me to AA and AA brought me to God, and I definitely feel that way.
