Hmmm....seems to me that,
To ask a person in AA,
who clearly uses a HP in his/her recovery,
to sponsor you WITHOUT the use of a HP
is akin to asking a Jew to believe in Jesus as the Christ!
(Greek for savior, not a last name.)
Ain't gonna happen too soon.
And it's somewhat of an insult to expect them to give up THEIR beliefs to fit YOUR needs!

They belong to an organization that has a point of view.
If you don't believe in it, don't go!
Pretty simple to me.

Or, alternatively, start a program yourself.
This IS still a free country.
(If you're in the USA anyway.)

Shalom!
