Sounds like they will regret their treatment of you and your Mom. We are all protective of our mothers.I doubt you'll like my thoughts about the bible. Especially with the impression you make that you are religious. Even the most of the atheists here I doubt they would understand my thoughts about it. My thoughts and feelings are way ahead of this era, so I'm not inclined to share my vision of the bible or the whole religion thing, if I'm not sure of the reaction I'll get. Most people mock at me but I don't care. The time will come when people will think the same way I think now.
I would like to hear your thoughts concerning the bible and how it correlates with this experience. Specifically, given your understanding of the bible, how do you feel this religious sects request for your Mom's property and subsequent threats and treatment of your family parallel with the message and instructions found within the scripture?
Also, I commend you on your command of the English language. You are well spoken and articulate in your posts. I appreciate and respect that, especially from people living outside the US.
As for the long question - there's nothing to think. It's an obvious violation of their own command. I'm quite sure that when their god said "do not kill" he also meant "do not threat other people's lives".
I started learning English when I was 6 and continued to do so until I turned 28. Somewhere on the way I grew to like the language because it's a lot easier than my own. Not to mention that sometimes things sound better in English than they do in Bulgarian. At some point I liked American English better than UK English which is why sometimes you can read American expressions and words in my writings. For this reason where most people would say "pavement", "underground" or "bus lane", I would say "sidewalk", "subway" or "granny lane". And US English also happens to be a lot easier than UK English. In US English, if you're not sure of the verb's tense, you can always put an "-ed" as a suffix and it won't be wrong.
