Not at all B. I don't mind a decent debate. That's a big problem on message boards though, people get into a debate that escalates into an all out fight and get their feelings hurt. I'm more for agreeing to disagree and then moving on. I hate fighting. Ask.com says that:

Addiction is a dependence on a behavior or sub-stance that a person is powerless to stop. The term has been partially replaced by the word dependence for substance abuse. Addiction has been extended, however, to include mood-altering behaviors or activities. Some researchers speak of two types of addictions: substance addictions (for example, alcoholism, drug abuse, and smoking); and process addictions (for example, gambling, spending, shopping, eating, and sexual activity). There is a growing recognition that many addicts, such as polydrug abusers, are addicted to more than one sub-stance or process.

I guess my whole stance comes from believing that a person has complete power over their actions and that becoming psychologically dependent on anything is a form of mental weakness that can only be rectified by reclaiming your personal responsibility. Oh well, everyone probably has a different take on this subject. I definitely don't want to get into a complete circular argument as they are useless.
