There is a list of 10 statements on pages 45-46 (We know how he feels...... And who could comprehend a supreme being anyhow) regarding old ideas about God. For my 2nd step I changed each statement to a question regarding my own beliefs (How did I share his honest doubt and prejudice, etc) and wrote a notebook page on each question. It was quite enlightening! As my sponsor said "You have to be willing to give up your old ideas. Some of them might be good but you won't know which ones they are.".

By the way, you might want to save what you have written, it's likely to come in handy down the road.
