Unlike "Rational Recovery"--which is a "hate AA" program, or what was that, "moderation" deal in the '90's? The founder got drunk and ended up in prison as I recall.

It seems to use solid psychotherapy techniques and if I remember my models of change follows prochaska's stages of change.

Like others here I'm agnostic, don't pray and am perfectly happy and sober in AA. But whatever works is good.
