Like teh frawg said, AA doesn't sell Christ.
Here's a neat question though...
Do you suppose people who don't have a problem with alcohol have to ask if they have a problem with alcohol?

Here's my opinion, no better/worse than anyone elses. If you only drink on Friday and Saturday, you don't have a problem yet. However, if you drink every single Friday and Saturday you're cultivating a problem that will sneak up on you. The more you find tricks to avoid or recover from a hangover, the closer you are to a problem. If you don't know any tricks ... well, that's just sad.

They're the only ones that would ask.

Your score is 20%. According to the Office of Health Care Programs, Johns Hopkins University Hospital, developers of this screening quiz, if you answered 3 of these questions with a Yes it is a definite sign that your drinking patterns are harmful and possibly considered alcohol dependent or alcoholic. You may want to seek an evaluation by a healthcare professional." :D
