Rebellion Dogs Radio takes you back to the year 2000 at the International Convention of Alcoholics Anonymous in Minneapolis. This episode features a unique panel discussion from the 'We Agnostic' group, chaired by Bob F. from New York City. The panel includes speakers Gwen G. from Miami, Fred C. from British Columbia, and Richard B. from Cleveland, each sharing their experiences and perspectives on staying sober without relying on traditional religious beliefs.
Gwen opens up about her journey as an atheist in AA, discussing how she found her path to sobriety amidst a community that often emphasises spirituality. Fred C., with 48 years of sobriety, brings a wealth of experience, while Richard B. shares his philosophical journey and struggles with faith and addiction. The episode offers a refreshing look at how individuals can maintain sobriety through secular means, emphasising the importance of community, support, and personal responsibility.
It's an enlightening discussion for anyone curious about alternative approaches to recovery within AA.
