Ugh. Where to start. I was once married to a gal that converted to the JWs. All I can say about that is if I had majored in psychology I could have written a thesis on her loosing her mind. I now refer to her as PB (psychobi***).

Here are some of the things you get to look forward to from your sister.

1. No more holidays. The only holiday they celebrate is call something like Niacin (or some other vitamin) 17. Which is supposed to be Jesus' resurrection. The holiday consists of going to the Kingdom Hall and being bored for 2 hours.

2. No smoking, but alcohol is ok since Jesus turned water into wine. PB could go through a case a day...and so could her mother now that I think about it.

3. If your sister is injured in such a way that only a blood transfusion will save her, then make preparations for her funeral. Blood transfusions are verboten.

4. Dont expect to be able to get ahold of her on Saturday. She will be out on Service. This is the door-to-door propagandizing that makes the Mormon's look lazy.

5. Dont even bring up religion around them unless you want a copy of the Watchtower showing up in your mail every freaking week.

That's just for starters. I have worked pretty hard to remove any memory of PB so I'm having trouble remembering other details. On the plus side, she did get psychotic enough that I was able to have the police cuff her and remove her from my house.

Good luck with you sister, I'm sorry to hear that she is getting sucked in by this cult.

My ex sister in law joined the JW cult. She is out now but a total basket case. She is on some heavy duty physco drugs. She is unrecognizable as the person she used to be. I'd say the people who are telling you the JW are ok have no personal dealings with them. No offence to anyone.

That is too funny. We have both in our area. They both hit our housing plan on a regular basis. A late model, nondescript American made sedan pulls to the curb...if the modestly dressed (though incredibly well ironed) occupants are under 25 and male...they are Morman; middle aged and female...JW. Sometimes both in one day!!! I have joked that I will don a burka (save on sunblock) to do yard work in so as not be interrupted by the 'faithful.' I figure if they saw me in that get up they would just consider me a lost cause...
