Huh??????
Why wouldn't you attend A.A. meetings? I am completely lost at your
statement. You have stated you are a recovering drug user, alcohol is
a drug. You belong in A.A. if you choose. No you don't have to go.
What does being a Christian have to do with A.A. ?
Are you concerned about the Lord's Prayer at closing?
You know you don't have to say it. No where in the literature of A.A.
does it associate with any religion, infact it states the opposite.
The only requirement is a desire to be sober.
I belieev you need to do a little ground work with your recovery
or you might find your self somewhere where you don't want to be.
Btw, Yes I go to A.A. have been sober for over 6 years, short time
I have to say, but it is sober never the less. I used all drugs
available from a very young age up to my 30's so I do have extensive
experience with drugs. A.A. works for all.
