12. Those are nice things.
But they are not a "loving god as he may express himself" blah blah blah. I don't remember the exact words, and they may be different in AA than in NA.

Anyway, that's the sticking point with a lot of atheists.

And since I don't lie to others or to myself in recovery, that's a really huge sticking point.

The program has god in it, and if one wants to work an honest program, god's part of the deal.

I don't really see a way around that.
