No. Alcoholics Anonymous is a Spiritual Fellowship of alcoholics with the Primary Purpose of staying sober and helping other alcoholics achieve freedom from alcohol (sobriety) and recover from Alcoholism through the teaching and practicing of the Twelve Steps - which is a Program designed to bring about a spiritual awakening in the person practicing it thereby solving all of their problems - including alcoholism. The success rate of the fellowship is very low since very few members actually qualify as alcoholics under AA' "description of the alcoholic" detailed in first forty three pages of the book, "Alcoholics Anonymous" - the volume after which the AA Fellowship was named - while the success rate of those who practice and teach the Twelve Steps to other alcoholics is nearly one hundred percent. The reason why the success rate is low is because of the nature of the illness of alcoholism the individuals' recovery requires that the individual actually puts into practice the suggestions that AA suggests and the problem being that the suffering alcoholic decides to stop getting help and drifts away into the hell of alcohol abuse again if someone is willing to go to vertually any length to stay sober they will but the leg work has to be put in by them. Nobody gets anything out of life for doing nothing after all.

Yes, "Alcoholics Anonymous" is a cult. It is a splinter sect a cult that called themselves "The Oxford Group", then "Moral-Re-armament" (actor Glenn Close was raised in that cult by her parents), then "Initiatives of Change.
"Alcoholics Anonymous, like most cults, recruits followers by promising some kind of salvation- in this case, pretending to be a "treatment" for "alcoholism". That promise is a bait-and-switch. For proof, check out their "12 steps", and ask which of them requires not drinking.
