Wow...good question. I would think not, but maybe in the abuse forum instead?
I'll look for it...when it finds where it does belong (even if it is here.)

Yup, I'm also thinking the abuse forum might be a more appropriate place for such a topic... thanks.

Kittenkirk, toxic soteriology forms the leading cause of covert and undetected spiritual abuse in the United States of America alone, and other parts of the globe. But that bes Mal's experience ... it may take other forms ... basically it involves an abuse of trust particularly trust in authority in a spiritual setting, not necessarily sexual abuse though it can include that, certainly, in a context where that would be an inappropriate relationship (i.e. not solarphallic cults or other modern incarnations of Western 'tantrik' ceremonialism, etc. obviously). It can be an abuse of spirit primarily because the leader seeks to manipulate and even program the conscience(s) of the victim(s). It literally bes a rape of conscience, a molestation of innocence, an invasion, horrible terrible invasion what wreaks devastation and can precipitate complicated abreactions.

speaking TRUTH about them in public will cause them to launch low-level Cassandra complex counter-maneuvers. Paranoid, defensive, overpersonalizing tend to be among their most frequent volleys. it will even have to erase the rest of this post.... they cry conspiracy at every fancy merely to deflect attention off themselves.

sorry it bes dissociate a lot now. will be back when less pixellated & fractured.

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
