    I appreciate this post!

    I’ve never been to a meeting, but I’ve always heard the only way through AA is with God. And as a lifelong atheist, I don’t think that would work for me. I’d just be lying to get them to shut up lol (which would not be doing myself the real service I would need at that point).

    I’m surprised there isn’t a more secular AA program. I can see the appeal of AA meetings without the 12 steps piece.

    What’s the point of accepting a higher power? Is it so that we can just put the blame on them? Or accept our place in this grand equation? I think we can already do the latter without a god.

    I’d love to read more if you do end up making a separate post!
