Legality of sentencing to Alcoholics Anonymous in Australia...?
|
I'm wondering if it's legal to sentence someone not of the Christian faith (or more explicitly, an atheist) to Alcoholics Anonymous for intoxication related offences, since AA is a largely Christian organisation and involved "submission to a higher power" as one of the 12 Steps.
I'm not an alcoholic, nor is anyone I know (thankfully). I'm just asking out of curiosity.

In the US, they make that a condition of your probation. If you don't go, your probation is revoked and you go back to jail for your original sentence.
I suspect it is similar in Australia. |
