I've never been a meeting that pushed Christianity as the only way to dealing with addiction.

In fact, i rarely even hear it being talked about in meeting. I don't go very often anymore, if ever, but in all the meetings i've been to it almost never comes up, unless someone is talking about their own personal experience and mention that their higher power was jesus/god.
