That's 12 step. Not all AA is 12 step.

    Almost All... But yes in recent years AA has tried to distance itself from the higher power ( God) rhetoric.

    AA is somewhat decentralized, and you will have splinter groups.

    Also to clarify, 12 step is a process created by the founders of AA. It's not a separate thing.

    The process still involves relinquishing your will power and deferring to an higher/outside power. Incredibly cult like behavior. You should be raising a person's will power. Hyping the hell out of them.
