(Courtesy)We throw the word addiction around a bit too casually, like a man keeping tabs on every football march or a woman who obsessively shops. Addiction is a state of psychological or physical dependence on substances and some behaviours. And we are striving to escape this garden of asphalt and thorns, we are all seeking salvation through money, fame, power, indulgence and yes, religion. When a person gives or ‘tithes’ to the extent they go bankrupt or are unable to cater for essentials could be dealing with religious addiction. Be a mirror, show don’t tell, show them how their addiction is ruining their lives.
