Religious approaches to drug recovery and rehabilitation

Christian drug treatment centers exist for a very important reason. On one hand, there is this strictly material belief system (yes, it is a belief system too) that tries to explain drug addiction in terms of biological factors. On the other hand, there are evidence (both scientific and social) that addiction is caused by social factors.

The latter view became a very wide attention. So much that many contemporary drug rehab centers are based on the assumption that if the addicts social and psychological factors change, the addictive behavior will change accordingly.

In that extent, Christian drug rehabilitation centers play a major role on that. While it seems that they are only available for Christians, virtually anyone can attend to those centers for treatment.

It may sound odd or non-scientific, however drug and alcohol treatment centers pay attention to that concept, and they are successful on what they do too.
