It was not verbatim. You inserted your own words and claimed they were mine.
Originally posted by dj2becker So if I am free to think that I was not psychologically abused what have you been on about?
Like I said, I exert no power or any restrictions over you and you are free to think and say whatever you want. You are in denial and ignorant about psychological abuse. And that is what we are discussing. You are free to behave as you see fit on this forum. I hold no threats over you.

Again you are welcome to assume that since I was in an environment of psychological abuse I also suffered psychological abuse. You are welcome to assume this, even if you can not prove it.

We have your own 220 word testimony and the corroborating testimonies you suggested we read.

Ok you are also welcome to use my 220 words and judge them to by your own subjective opinions of what constitutes psychological abuse and reach whatever conclusions you deem fit.

I doubt you would find a professional psychiatrist or psychologist who would disagree with my take on it, aside, perhaps, from those on the payroll of your cult who might have been involved in covering up the violence and rapes that went on and acting as apologists in the media.

Huh? This is a non sequitur.
Look at page 50. Your comment was in reply to what I said, which was about the toll being in a cult seems to have taken on you (and still affecting you to this day), not about theology.

Again you are welcome to your subjective opinions that I was personally abused. And you are also welcome to think that every professional psychiatrist or psychologist will share your opinion.
Originally posted by dj2becker If by 'standard understanding' you are referring to your own personal opinion of what the 'standard understanding' is, then we are agreed.
No, I am referring to the standard understanding of professional psychologists.
Please explain why deprivation is not a form of abuse?

If I have opened your eyes to your ignorance (if you made up the story) or your denial (if you didn't make it up) then it will have been worth it.
