<<I personally believe the "disease" characterization of alcoholism is misguided.>>

It's debateable. But like you I am a skeptic. My observations have been that the "victims" of the "disease" characterization use it as an enabler to stay victims. No doubt the programs have helped many. Many people "recover" without programs, and many "victims" die in and out of programs. The "disease" characterization releases the participants from responsibility.
