About the Book

How does society influence and mold us? Is our social moral fabric nothing more than a thin curtain of denial behind which we are actually promoting drugs and alcohol to ourselves? Or is addiction an odd peculiarity within an otherwise moral and sane culture? Could society itself be, in its fundamental nature, addictive? If our Western, American, Judeo-Christian society were a person, could it be medically diagnosed as an addict? Leaving the question of individual addiction aside, are we all living in an overall collective addictive environment? If the whole of society could, like a patient, be taken to the doctor’s office, what symptoms might be observed? If we could put the entirety of western civilization on the psychiatrist’s couch as one large collective patient, might it result in a diagnosis of addiction?


About the Author

Will King is a pastor who lives in the Florida Keys. His spiritual ministry welcomes everyone. For over 35 years he has helped alcoholics and addicts awaken to recovery. The secret is understanding the distinction between energetic spirituality and the synthetic intellect. This is the keystone to building a happy, and more importantly, a powerful life. Opening our hearts to God is as simple as becoming joyous. We bring our happiness and love to the alter, and in return God blesses us with His power. To paraphrase the song, perhaps love really does make the world go round. Love is more than a nice feeling. It may be the greatest force of all.
