Would an Atheist Drug Addict Have Issues With the NA or AA 12 Step Program?

Question by Diver Down: Would an atheist drug addict have issues with the NA or AA 12 step program?
part of the program to recovery is believing that a “higher power” will help you. But what if you don’t believe? and you want “recovery”?
One thing that is frowned upon in these programs is referring to a “God”, the word is just Higher Power, it is open to the individual to interpet. They didn’t pray either, we all just merely admitted that we had issues that we wanted resolved. Their is no religion in the program, if it is handle by the 12 step “book”.
Has anyone who answered ever been to a meeting?

We’re scientifically minded people. I doubt we’d ever become slaves to Alcohol or drugs. At least, no Atheist I’ve ever known would.
But instead of a higher-power, we’d have to look to the best in ourselves.
