Be careful what "higher power" you submit to. Christianity has been very helpful in my recovery from mental illness. I go to an Episcopalian Church. If you just want to socialize maybe a support group would be better for you. If you have no interest in the doctrine of the Church your needs would probably be served better somewhere else. I think it is foolish to go seeking this "higher power" with a devil may care attitude. Our Church is tolerant, well educated, and has a fairly structured approach to worship. You would be welcome at our Church but if you have no sincerity about seeking Christ you probably don't belong here. I know this is politically incorrect but Christianity does not acknowledge the validity of any other faith.
