The meetings that I've been to don't usually talk about religion. It's a spiritual program, not a religious one. And there are people who do say that they choose to call their Higher Power "God," but that's a personal choice and if that's what works for them, it's fine with me - whatever works. One thing I learned early on was to "take what you want and leave the rest."
At one of my first meetings I told a long-timer who highlighted parts of my Big Book that referred to God that I wasn't religious. And I was asked if I was "open minded," which I try to be - and I also take into account that many of the writings are from the 1930s when organized religion played a much bigger part in society. They also talk about Model Ts and WWII, as well - and I appreciate the times in which they were written.
When I first started going to AA meetings in 2008, the discussions were strictly limited to alcohol. But that's changed, as well. So many these days say that "drugs are a part of my story," and I don't have an issue with that, either. Many now identify as "addicts," but if the rooms of AA - as opposed to NA - are working for them, I certainly don't judge.
