2025 SOAAR Ottawa Rick B on Steps 1, 2, 3 for Heathens

Rick B. loves his secular AA group; he's also a regular at one of the largest closed (AA members and people who think they have a problem with alcohol, only) discussion groups in the Ottawa area. There are many newcomers at this meeting. One breakout room is a "beginners group" focusing on Steps One, Two, and Three. As a scientist and educator, Rich offers an evidence-based, scientific method approach, which some atheists refer to as the "woo-woo" steps because of the religious language and ideas of Steps Two and Three.

Secular AA is AA sobriety that is neither religious nor irreligious, focusing on the practical, humanist tools of Alcoholics Anonymous and borrowed from the wider recovery community. Secular AA is a growing subculture within AA, offering 100 agnostic/atheist/freethinkers AA meetings every day + regional events and the International Conference of Secular AA (ICSAA).
