AA Thought for the Day
October 2, 2003
Realm of the Spirit
As soon as we admitted
the possible existence of a Creative Intelligence,
a Spirit of the Universe underlying the totality of things,
we began to be possessed
of a new sense of power and direction,
provided we took other simple steps.
We found that HP does not make too hard terms
with those who seek Him.
To us, the Realm of Spirit is broad,
roomy, all inclusive;
never exclusive or forbidding to those who earnestly seek.
It is open, we believe, to all men.

"Realm of the Spirit", "Creative Intelligence", "Spirit of the Universe
underlying the totality of things", "Him"

I think you'll need to change more than just the word god to stop this from
appearing to be religious

Naw, can't do that. We have some responsibility towards those who remain
sober by bitching at AA's religiousness.
