It's too bad you weren't at my meeting yesterday. We read from the Big Book chapter "We Agnostics" and everyone shared a bit about their approaches to spiritualism. Only a couple of people identified themselves as Christians.

Yeah, I know the prayers, some of the Big Book, and some of the meeting shares can make it seem like a Christian based program but it really is all-inclusive.

By the way, it took me three months of going to meetings (twice a week) before I finally felt at home in AA. Give it your best shot!

Best wishes.
