Q: What fills the God-shaped void?

The Steps.

The void is created by the illusion we're separate, self-created individuals, trapped in a body, rather than extensions of God.

Specifically, the void is maintained by:

- The concept of self as an individual
- Continuing harm to others
- Secrets
- Resentment
- Unamended past harm to others
- Living as the centre of the universe

The Steps address this by:

- Adopting the view that we are extensions of God
- Doing good not harm
- Confessing
- Forgiving
- Making amends
- Practising Steps Ten to Twelve.
