> My current sponsor’s higher power was once an imaginary vagina.
> It spoke to him and everything.
That made me laugh audibly, and next time I need to refer to a higher power in any sort of conversation, I fully plan to work that in.
If you ever have the occasion to tell your sponsor that this story inspired such a reaction from a random person on the internet, I hope it amuses him.
I shouldn't have to make up a higher power and do anything with that imaginary construct to make it through the steps of a sobriety program, though. The fact that I'd have to lie about it in the first place is the issue - it doesn't matter if other people's higher power is something non-christian or not. I cannot just be myself.
