Thank you very much for your contribution.
The deadline of completing all the work is the end of March which means that until this time I have to have all the work accepted. The interview is the last part of my work. I am just writing the preliminary conclusion.
I have read Deborah Davis book as I had mentioned before, there is the information about the tribes, Fred Jordan and Berg's mother.
Your hints about the culture are very valuable.
Thank you for them.
There are still some questions that were not answered or answered partially. I have also some additional questions that may help you in answering.
The story, legend or myth...(describe one or if you do not know any state that)
The posters - describe one that you remember the best.
What about celebrating Christmas Eve and Easter?
The clothes that women wear.
Did the members litnessing have any badge which would identify them?
Was there any rite of passage for the new member?
Did you wear a cross like some Christians do or
other sign of belonging to Christ or organziation?
Any characteristic gesture used by the members of the group.
Some scholars claim that music plays a special role in cults. It attracts the new members and evokes specific emotions. Was the music used to evoke the joy, repentance, etc. If so describe the situation.
I am looking forward to hearing form you
