An Answer Without a Prayer
During my drinking days, I lived primarily by the principle expressed in the Herbert Spencer quote at the end of the second appendix to the Big Book on Spiritual Experience. For this reason I had an intense aversion to "organized religion," with which I equated spirituality, and was more or less convinced that I was an atheist. When I came into AA, the Second and Third Steps seemed an insurmountable obstacle to the rest of the Steps, and I became a "two-stepper."
