I guess in the loosest sense, if you LD you could be open to obsession, which might be seen as a form of posession.

I take it you are not religious like they are?
Much as it is ideal to be able to talk to loved ones about lucid dreaming, it sounds like they will be difficult to convince of the positive aspects.

Are they actually saying it's sinful?
I can't see why, until you start describing what you are doing while you LD. If God is all seeing, won't he see your dreams just as he sees your waking life (if you believe that)?
