    AA relies on religion and finding god to treat a medical problem like addiction. I don’t think it’s the best example my dude.

      Well that’s not the part I’m talking about. I’m talking specifically about the leadership.

      I’m an atheist who attended AA for years and I never worked the steps. The old heads definitely start to put the pressure on you after awhile though. “Yer higher power could be the universe.” Well, yeah, but it specifically says god.
