I agree AB, There is wisdom that comes from the many varied people in meetings as well as ( the less fun stuff for me ) recital of AA text. I go for the former and another important reason. I’m trying…and man-o-man am I trying, to get over my prejudges against AA. I like the fact that when a group of people support one and another under one cause great things happen. That happens in AA all the time. These past few days I have been looking inward and do not like what I see. I will remain a non-theist, but I will shed the anti-god mentality. If you know what I mean. I don’t want to continue to put down a program that server so many well.

Yea sure the BB and me have some problems. But if I understand this correctly: the meetings are intended to support members that want to add a spiritual dimension to their life as well as support for those who prefer to follow another direction. The only requirement………
