“…The vertical relationship formed between the individual and the God becomes very powerful in directing behavior. Giordano, Prosek, Daly, Holm, Ramsey Abernathy, & Sender (2015); Giordano, Prosek, Loseu, Bevly, Stamman, Molina, Callahan, & Calzada (2016) support the findings of this research, religion being the way to solve the problem of drug abuse.
