Answer:stolen chicks I think refer to people who are immature in faith

Explanation:these people are usual taken as servants to serve a certain God or Goddess without their own concert or will and they are usual forced to worship these gods but when they become aware of what they choose to believe in they usual will flee and leave the place of worship in order to follow their own path in life.

Mostly these are women who are forced into these issues of faith against their will.
