Atheists, agnostics, free-thinkers - any alcoholics or addicts looking for sobriety without religion - find Secular AA/recovery meetings here aasecular.org/online-meetings

@SamuelAAdams It’s available now in the U.S. free on demand on DirecTV with HBO

remember that bombshell documentary about the sexual assault allegations against Michael Jackson? You’d better, because it’s effectively gone for good, replaced by a truncated sequel that chronicles the influence of a movie you can no longer see. slate.com/culture/2025/0…

@XRPArmyNews1 @KanoleeKitty I mean, jack of all trades? I just want anyone who searches here for atheist AA to get a result showing how to find non-religious AA meetings. For free. So, jack of zero trades here, trying to spread awareness of secular AA because that would have helped me 6 years ago

@XRPArmyNews1 @KanoleeKitty Think you may have tagged the wrong account here, I have no idea who anyone is in this conversation or what you’re talking about

Love how expressing ones opinion gets so twisted on social media,and always by charmers with underhanded motives. The principles we learn through AA are next to impossible on SM where people are here for so many personal financial ventures but in #RecoveryPosse #Honesty

Five years sober thanks to the people in Secular AA meetings #oneyearatatime

@livmattock @imcbear @cancelproof Secular/non-religious AA meetings are available online & are different from traditional meetings - there’s less talk about the steps & working a program, more sharing of experiences. No judgment, no praying aasecular.org/online-meetings

@nynie96 @thesoberheathen That wasn’t me! This is just a small anonymous account in case atheists do a search about atheist/secular AA, to point them to meeting info. I have done no sobriety podcasts but will check yours out as a listener!

@thesoberheathen @HeathenSober thanks for speaking with me today. keep up the good work here. you're doing an awesome job with this platform. 👍🤘🤘

youtu.be/OeUyUnWCvP4 Latest episode!! Seems the universe has a message for me and the listeners! If you have been following my twitter and podcasts you will know what I mean when you listen! @nynie96 #RecoveryPosse #SoberSuccess

@mirihawk @1bravewave @annehelen Right. Group prayer in pretty much all traditional AA meetings (in the U.S. anyway) equals religion. So I’m just using this thread to mention secular AA meetings repeatedly - it is possible to get sober in AA without religion, and make atheist friends of all ages as a bonus.

@1bravewave @annehelen The Lord's Prayer as one of the standard prayers gives that the lie. Show me a 12 step group using a prayer from any other religious trad at all.

What's an organization that isn't religious or through your kid's school that has allowed you to build connections, however loose, with people who aren't your own age?

@karolgajda @annehelen Yes, traditional AA and their 12 steps are religious. But secular AA exists - alcoholic atheists, please Google secular AA meetings! They have god-free steps. Steps and a higher power are optional, just get sober. And niche answers are okay I think.

@meags @annehelen Many deny it but yes. Most traditional AA meetings have group prayer and are therefore religious even if the focus is sobriety. But, there are secular/non-religious meetings, which is where I have made close friends aged 25-80 the past few years. So my answer is secular AA.

@annehelen I thought AA was religious?

@MelbourneAa I only go to secular AA meetings so I don’t hear any god talk. There are plenty of secular meetings but virtually all of the anniversary coins still say god on the back, it’s frustrating. The coins with the responsibility pledge on the back are hard to find and expensive.

@HeathenSober There's a lot of Christian/deist stuff around AA and a lot of bad apologetics. The good thing is, if you're an alchie, you can stay sober, get help and have a much better life and just let that stuff go through to the keeper* #soberlife #recovery

Two years of whining about how the AA coins all say god on them have yielded results! The secretary of my home group found a secular 3 year coin for me!

@bessbell I go to AA meetings on zoom, I know a bunch of These Guys

If you do not know a Scott Frank, you are the Scott Frank.

@ToeBurgundy @atheist_bad You can do the secular parts without the religious parts. You have committed to yourself by admitting your addiction to alcohol. The steps next needed to be taken are going to be tough. Ask for your AA buddy to be an atheists from the group you join.

@ToeBurgundy You can be an Atheist in AA. Your higher power can be anything you want it to be. Whatever gives you peace and strength. It’s a great place to get a support system. Take what you need and leave the rest. Don’t box yourself into a corner.

@deepwithfuture @ToeBurgundy There are also secular/non-religious AA meetings - no prayers, and the steps, a sponsor, and a higher power are all optional. Not much talk about the program in meetings. There’s a spreadsheet of secular AA zoom meetings linked at omagod.org

@ToeBurgundy I'm sorry to keep talking at you. It's just really important for you to know. I don't believe in a creator and it's been immensely helpful to me. There's so much knowledge in the rooms.
