I hear you.
The gOD part of AA scares the shit out of me. Am I able to live with this in foreseeable future? I'm not wanting to start a religious debate here, I really respect people's faith, but there are few things in this world that triggers my anger more than almost anything related to religion and gOD.
What makes it possible for me is the fact that, although Norway is a very religious and godly country, most fellow AA-dudes (and a few ladies) doesn't really believe in gOD.
In USA gOD is a completely different beast.
Everything you say and do seem to be somewhat related to a gOD thing.
We in this local AA group uses the definition god as "something that drives us", wether it be Jesus, creativity (that's me) or something just bigger than us.
I have no problem imaging myself that god as a religious definition is something I couldn't have stand and lived with, if I were a US Citizen seeking AA help.
Still, I have to ask. Have you tried?
