Read how it works.And working with other alcoholics,may be helpful.
Back to topic,athiests in AA?.
sure,why not!!!!!
No, it doesn't promote any specific religion, but it does promote a 'Truth' that is based on and consistant with a type of religious/spiritual belief known as theism. There is a whole chapter devoted to the conversion of those who's belief system falls outside of this genre. If this wasn't true, atheists would have no issue, and this thread wouldn't exist.
