I'll continue:
One good thing religion does that one cannot do for oneself? It teaches surrender to those who are helpless before their addictions and hatred.
Wanna take on all the 12-stepper's in the US? Myself, I wouldn't feel comfortable telling successfully recovered addicts that they are NOT recovered due to a HP but merely deluded by Big Corporate Brothers or what have you.
I don't believe the Bible is the Word of God--[i]however[i] I would never presume to tell people how to worship or what to worship--let alone give doubt to those who find comfort in the concept of a Higher Power.
Rip away, r. post bombs.
tell me how stupid and irrational I am. I look forward to it.

No one is helpless before their addictions and the medical community agrees with me.
Your will is what you need, not religion. The twelve steps do not work.
See Penn and Teller's Bullshit 12-Stepping.
I was told that I could not participate in AA because I was an atheist by a chapter head... real loving and helpful group there.
