Hi Genie,
Just my thoughts... Yeah you can go to AA. You can go anywhere you want....lol. For real though, I am a firm believer in RR/AVRT. However, sometimes I will stop by a meeting and listen or share or whatever. I like meetings for the fellowship.
I personally am not an athiest however, I got to a point where I had to take control of my life and admit I am not powerless, I choose to drink. No-one in AA ever threw me out the door for not working steps or having a sponsor. I am quite open about the fact that I am a "meeting poacher" and no one seems to care. Sometimes I will get told "you should do steps or other blah blah blah" but, it is all just "suggested" so usually it is a quick conversation.
Jess
