We Agnostic Panel 1995 San Diego AA Convention

The AA World Convention is a quinquennial gathering to celebrate the anniversary of Alcoholics Anonymous.  

Since 1990, there has been a “We Agnostics Panel." At the time of posting, we are 80 days away from Vancouver 2025, July 3-6. AA World Convention with the theme “Language of the Heart.” 

2025's AA celebration will include a Secular AA Hospitality Suite, which you can find in your 2025 AA Vancouver program. We are open Thursday, Friday, and Saturday; come and visit. There will be another "We Agnostics" panel + all about being part of a secular AA group in another panel called "One Big Tent." Who knows what other panels of the 700 +/- speakers among our secular members will participate?  

Rebellion Dogs will share some of these previous recordings. In 1995, in San Diego, we celebrated 60 years since Bill W. met Dr. Bob, the birth of AA. There is no society of one person; therefore, two sober people equals the birth of this peer-to-peer society.  

The moderator was Jacques F, AAWS Director and freethinker from the Serendipity Group in Pointe-Claire, Quebec. Speakers included Merl E. from Hollywood We Agnostics group, Mel D from New York City and  Linda F from the Freedom Group Tuscon AZ who had a coming-out as a non-believer at the podium. 

Following the formal speakers, we heard from the crowd: Bill, Allan, Quad-A, Chicago, Pete, Matt, Norma Jean, Adrian, John, Katie, Carrie, We Agnostics of Passedina, CA, Elizabeth from Back to Basics in San Francisco and Melanie.
