Oh, almost forgot...
I did attend a few meetings also before I decided it wasn't for me. I do believe not all meetings are the same, and some are much better than others.
I do believe in God, so that wasn't the reason I decided it wasn't for me. One of the things I wasn't crazy about ( and no, this didn't determine me not going back to the meetings, lol) was the holding eachother at the end.
To each his own though.
