Dear Inky:
I am wondering… maybe you should not permit your son to associate with the boy next door… I think it might be reasonable to consider this. Or limit their associations, have the boy in your home and under your supervision. Or no contact at all. It may be wise as you don’t know if and when they may grab him in a moment of his weakness. It is hard for me to understand how a reasonable person can believe the fundamental tenets of living forever, young and healthy, so against nature, so unbelievable. But like you pointed out, just the COMMUNITY can lure a person away from sanity. Who knows the draw that might pull your son…

I am not surprised about the Juidism to JW move of your best friend’s sister. The ultra orthodox Jews also have everything spelled out for them and are even busier than the JWs- even the JWs with 9-5 door to door job. According to a book of rules for the Jewish orthodox one has to wipe one’s butt with the (oops) left hand, i think, not the right hand used to do the tefilin thing around the arm… I am not sure which hand (might be doing it all wrong… ha ha) In any case, the draw of perfect order.

What do you think about the no contact with the JWs rule for your son???

You can’t help their son- they have all rights to him legally- but you can help yours…?
