>In a national survey of 2,709 clinical psychologists who were members of the American Psychological Association, the authors investigated the frequency of RA allegations made to psychologists. This study showed that within their sample of psychologists, 70% denied and 30% acknowledged seeing at least one case of “ritualistic or religion-related abuse since January 1, 1980” (Bottoms, Shaver, & Goodman, 1991, p. 6). The authors also found that among the psychologists who had worked with at least one individual with allegations of ritual abuse, 93% believed that the harm had actually occurred.
>There were 387 child RA cases, 674 adult RA survivor cases, 171 child religion-related cases, and 234 adult survivors of religion-related cases reported. The authors stated that the adult ritual abuse cases “were consistently the most extreme” (Goodman et al., 1994, p. 4). Of the adult ritual abuse cases, 33% reported cannibalism and 28% baby breeding for purposes of ritual sacrifice.
>The fourth study of children’s knowledge of ritual abuse showed that “children have relatively little knowledge of Satanic child abuse” (p. 10). Their fifth study considered 271 cases of religion-related abuse. They found that in 94% of the clergy abuse, 48% of the evil ridding cases, and 23% of medical neglect included allegations of sexual abuse.
>She collected data from these interviews, which she combined with her Fort Bragg data. Thus, she had a total of 11 cases. The following abuses and corroboration were reported:
>1. confinement in cage (n = 10);
>2. threats (n = 11);
>3. live burial in caskets, coffins, boxes (n = 6);
>4. water torture (n = 7); // CIA waterboarding programmed?
>5. threats with guns or knives (n = 10);
>6. drug injections (n = 10);
>7. filming and still photography (n = 11);
>8. bondage, locked in closets, hung by feet or wrists, spread-eagled over pentagrams;
>9. tied onto upside-down crosses (n = 7);
>10. abusers wearing masks and robes, carrying candles (n = 11);
>11. mock marriages (n = 6);
>12. defecation, urination, forcible ingestion of human wastes (n = 10);
>13. witnessing animals tortured and killed (n = 10);
>14. fake operations (n = 6);
>15. children’s descriptions of the torture and sexual assault of themselves or others (n = 10);
>16. evidential medical examinations: findings commensurate with sexual assault (n = 11);
>17. babies, small children killed, carved up, and parts eaten (n = 9);
>18. transportation elsewhere for abuse; various methods of transport (n = 10); and
>19. sexual assault and terrorizing in churches, graveyards, other day care centers (n = 10). [6]
These people really are SICK as Q said.
Anyone want to dig into this? Archive it, it was down before briefly. I am way too stoned to judge rationaly.
