So, my mom was telling my sister these things about how "JFK died, this was misfortune" and a whole bunch of people "got cancer and died, and that was misfortune" and that was supposed to convince my sister to chant. I butted in and told her I understood her religion was important to her but to please respect my sister and I were atheists who didn't believe in religion.

She told me she was saying that because the camera that I'd bought arrived and it was all scratched up. I told her it was supposed to be scratched up because it was second-hand. She told me she refused to buy my a second hand camera and that I was a low-class person who brought misfortune to the family (she let me use her money to buy a gift on amazon). Then she took $100 in gift cards that my father had given me as a Christmas present. She's also threatening me to call the police...

Now she gave back the money after 5 minutes of silence...And took the camera saying that she had to make sure the camera I bought was good. I told her that I was working within a budget (my sister had a budget of 80 dollars for a artist's armature--turns out now that that wasn't the case).

Actually now she's saying that I should buy a different camera from amazon because she won't give me a cheap gift... Maybe that's her way, but I really hate going through it. Religion seems like a tool she's using, even though she believes in it. I don't really know what to think ><
