More food for thought:

"In Australia there is no AA (or other 12th step) meeting that I know of that would have the audacity to include the so called Christian "Lord's Prayer". Not only is it against the tradition of non-affiliation but it forces those members who are Catholic or Protestants to choose between the prayer's wording ('Who/Which, are/art...for thine is etc). It is divisive, discriminatory and is itself contrary to the rest of the AA program which stresses non-religious but rather "spiritual" nature of our program." Spiritual or Religious?
