For my pharmacology class, I had to attend multiple AA sessions. From my experience, in two separate regions, AA replaces the addiction with an addiction to social responsibility and moral responsibility (through a deity). In my honest opinion, judges are prescribing religion (or Kohlberg?) as a replacement addiction. My outside observation was cult behaviors with a climbable hierarchy of social power and control.
