My best friend went through AA, an atheist, it worked for him, but like he said its very different in various parts of North America, some heavily promoting religion, some like in Calgary were just using the idea of God as whatever you define it as.
The article is right, AA is not the one and only stop for help, there are plenty of programs that seem to have success, and that he fully agrees with. What might work for him, does not mean he's a fan of the program, he found many flaws within it, but said that the group meetings are the key as they ultimately help the most.
