Jewish man gets evicted from "Christian House"

On July 7th I was evicted from a home in Stockertown, Pa by the manager of the "Christian House."The reasons for the eviction were not due to the normal reasons like failure to pay rent, etc. Stated on The eviction form were things like "not unlocking the door to let strangers view the room  during house showings" and "removing a FOR SALE sign."Keep in mind, the manager failed to give me 24 hours notice when the house was being shown. I was given 30 days notice to leave the house or a Marshal would evict me. Living in this house were other "Christians" who would report me if I had  done anything unChristian like. I broke the big rule of having my girlfriend spend the night. So the underlying reason for the eviction is being a sinner and being with a woman out of wedlock. I am 60 years old, not a 18 year old kid. I got invited to stay at this "Christian" house because in addition to going to Temple, I attend Church on Sunday. Why would a Jew go to Church? I want to learn about the New Testiment, and I am very interested in how Jesus Christ lived. He was a very religous Jew and practiced the laws of Kosher. In my opinion he was a Rabbi. So that is why I go to Church and Temple. I do not take Communion. 
I believe I was evicted due to prejudice from the manager of the house and I am taking the manager to Civil Court on July 30th in Nazarath. Presently living in the house is a man taking my place there so he can sleep with the managers mother. But again, these people are "Christian" so it is ok.
