I have seen Buddhism is defined as a Pragmatic Philosophy and that's what it is for me.

When I state that there is nothing woo woo about Buddhism or the 12 Steps what I'm saying is that for me it's all very sensible and realistic in a way that is based on practical rather than theoretical considerations.

Coming from agnostic beliefs God to me is simply G.O.D. Good. Orderly. Direction. This something I did not have until I clean myself up and began working the 12 steps which included spirituality.
