Logically that would make sense, but she really believes that I need to be fixed. Her particular religion is such that only it is correct etc... that seems to give her the authority to ... educate me.
I really am wording this poorly because although she comes across as rude (and she does) I truly believe her motives are pure. It's very frustrating and kind of strange, the spiritual side of hubby's family is "left to the women". Grandma went to church every single day but Grandpa went only to weddings and funerals. There were several incidents (of a non-sexual nature) that caused my mother-in-law (again I am trying to edit) and my husband to stop attending services on a regular basis when hubby was 16. Her daughters are devout, and hubby's brother's wife is EXTREMELY devout (but non-judgemental).
Now that I think of it, perhaps if disregard the message and look at the intent, perhaps this is a compliment of sorts that I am finally 'worthy' (?) to join that club. I will have to ponder that...
