I just think that alcoholic is a very loosely used term, a lot of people are just too hard on themselves.

So that means alcoholism can be cured? I’m not exactly sure what you’re trying to get at

If you're addicted, you're an alcoholic

I guess it can’t be cured. For example, I have a drinking problem, I can’t just have 3-4 beers, I drink until I am completely blackout, and I’ve built up quite the tolerance, it usually takes me 22-35 beers to get good and gone, some have classified as me an alcoholic, some have said I have a drinking problem, what I’m getting at is where’s the line is draw. I didn’t mean to insult you.

What makes you think you can’t have both?

I’m not saying you can’t, I’m asking where is the line drawn.

Not genetically. Find me one person that has been.

According to Osteen I’m past the line. It just seems the classification of an alcoholic varies drastically.

Is alcoholism purely to blame on genetics?
