Are there any local secular sobriety groups or AA groups that are light on the religion?
I’m really not into religion, and imagine I would find the “higher power” stuff in AA to be off-putting enough to eventually push me away from going to meetings. I say “imagine” because I’ve never actually attended one. The AA website lists tons of groups, one of which is for specifically for atheists and agnostics, but it is also run by the Capitol Hill Alano Club, which is apparently a GLBT organization. While I certainly have no problems with the GLBT community, I’m straight and I’m not too sure that’s the right fit (assuming it’s not meant to be GLBT-only group, which I shouldn’t really assume). Clearly, I’ll have to look into that. Supposedly there’s a local Secular Organizations for Sobriety meeting, but I’m still waiting to hear back about that. So that said, can anyone suggest any secular sobriety groups or AA groups that don’t focus on religion? And yes, I do realize I’m putting a lot of constraints on this, but that’s just focused research — I’d like to believe I’ll be takin
