Ritual Abuse of Children: Society's Dark Secret

in #informationwar6 years ago (edited)

Abuse


Source

There is physical abuse and psychological or emotional abuse. Sexual abuse is a form of physical abuse that can differ from non-sexual physical abuse. Psychological abuse is usually a component of physical types of abuse but can be done on its own, such as with verbal abuse. There is also a more prolonged and dark type called ritual abuse that includes physical, sexual and psychological abuse, and it's often associated with dark beliefs like Satanism to be called satanic ritual abuse.


Ritual Abuse

Abuses is usually conducted on young boys and girls who are smaller, weaker and can more easily be manipulated, but also on adult women more so than adult men. Abuse victims are made to believe they have no power by their victimizer, which keeps them silent and under control. Ritual abuse is called a ritual because it's repeated, as opposed to a single instance of abuse, but also because it is usually done by a group as a ritual that is repeated over and over.

Some key features that are common in accounts of ritual abuse are:

  • The abuse includes physical, sexual and psychological abuse;
  • The abuse constitutes a range of criminal acts;
  • It is systematic, can be ceremonial and often occurs within a group setting (usually more than one perpetrator at a time, but not always);
  • Like all abuse, ritual abuse is about power and control, but is designed to more expressly meet the needs of a group, with the specific purpose of indoctrination into that group’s belief system or ideology;
  • Mind control techniques or programming plays a significant part in keeping group members faithful to the group and its needs. Much of this programming is about engendering a sense of terror within group members, so that they will not leave the group or expose the group’s criminal practices to outsiders.

Ritual abuse keeps happening over time, which usually includes severe physical abuse in the form of torture. There is also sexual abuse that is painful and often humiliating. This acts to both physically and psychologically traumatize the victim. This control keeps victims silent as they keep the secrets of the their abuse. They often conform to the beliefs of the abuser or group, like a cult. Victims often blame themselves for what happened.


Obedience

Some forms of compliance are gained through brainwashing techniques like "psychic driving" where a victim is put into altered states of consciousness through drugs, electro-shock, sensory or sleep deprivation, or starvation. A taped message will be continuously played for hours to indoctrinate a person into accepting whatever message is played, or to break/fracture the mind into dissociation for mind control.

Terrorizing someone will get them to give up control and do whatever is asked of them in order for them to not have to experience something again. Battered women's syndrome and PTSD are forms of abuse that is experienced and damages the psychological structure of individuals. When a male aggressor abuses his spouse, the pain, trauma and fear promotes compliance an obedience to commands. The victim does what the abuser wants without internal moral or ethical review.

This is also how soldiers are made into obedient slaves to the chain of command obedience. They do what they are commanded to do. They are trained by being in a cult-like environment, isolated for long periods of time where they undergo psychological -- and sometimes physical -- abuse in order to break their internal will power and autonomy, and instead obey the will of their commanders to carry out orders regardless of it being right or wrong.

A soldier is a sol-dier, a "soul-dyer" who has their "soul", their "heart", their self, will, consciousness, conscience and morality die in order to carry out acts of violence at the command of another's will. Soldiers experience PTSD because they experience the acts of violence around them, either by seeing it, receiving it, or participating in and doing it themselves. The battlefield is a place where someone will do anything to survive in that awful position where they are pitted against others who do the same, ordered to do things they wouldn't normally want to do.


Human Sacrifice

When you think about, wars are a form of human sacrifice. People believe they re sacrificing themselves for a greater cause. But they are mostly being played as pawns in a game. Human sacrifice has been practiced throughout human history. It's a big drama being played out, with beliefs and symbolism tied into so-called "spiritual" practices as a means to an end. This can be referred to as "black-magic or "witchcraft", where certain rituals, objects or words are given special meaning in order to influence human or natural events through supernatural powers.

Blood sacrifices are offerings of an object, blood, to appease gods for them to restore or maintain some believed sacred order for crops to grow, fertility, or other good fortune to happen. Blood was viewed as the sacred life force. Cannibalism also shared this belief in obtaining powers and influence by ingesting the life force of blood.


Birthing Ritual

One ritual of abuse involves blood and sacrifice of another, and the placing of the victim inside the carcass of the dead human or non-human animal. This is to symbolize being born into the membership of the group, apparently to engender a deeper connection to the group.

Sometimes the birthing ritual is for the cult alone, and not for the "welcoming" and conditioning of the new member. One such event is described in the book "The Franklin Cover-Up" (pg. 213):

In discussing the C[aesarean]section, which was done here in Nebraska, the Triangle. When he was there the girl was fifteen, as he describes her two year old son had to have sex with her prior to her death, prior to the hysterotomy or C-section.... The two year old had sex with his mother. The mother was a believer, he states that she was not tied down, though she was drugged, and a lot of them had drugs. The baby was removed and the blood drained, the chalice passed, the high priest urinated in the chalice, in the blood. Because part of the way of the reverse Christian belief is to take the blood and defile it. But only the high priest may do it. And he knew it. ... The baby was dismembered .... The next thing that he said is that the child would not stop crying and so they eliminated that child as well. And ate the flesh. And the mother died and she was also eaten by the cult.


Multi-Generational Ritual Abuse


Source

Multi-generational ritual abuse happens within families and starts at a young age, usually before the age of 6. This can include cult rituals, prostitution and child pornography. The family culture is one where the abuse of children and women is normalized as a daily reality. Parents lend their children like prostitutes to be sexually abused by their friends who belong to the same culture or cult of depravity. This behavior gets instilled as a standard of acceptable and normal behavior to be perpetuated over generations.

The abuse of children is done through various categories:

  • "organised abuse", which refers to the abuse and exploitation of children through organised crime (prostitution and pornography) and paedophile rings;
  • "institutional abuse", which refers to the abuse of persons within political and social institutions, such as within schools, orphanages and mental health facilities etc;
  • "organised sadistic abuse", which is often used as an umbrella term across these kinds of abuse, wherein ritual abuse features as a more extreme example.

Social Failure


Source

The abuse of adult women is recognized by much of society. In the home as well as in prostitution which often starts from childhood abuse or trauma. The abuse of children is more recognized now, but many cases have been ignored denied by family and society who didn't want to admit to this horrible reality.

Religions have been abusing children for a long time, but only near the end of the last century did society begin to expose the priests of the Catholic Church and their abuse. It happens in other religions as well. It's not only religions. Pedophile rings exist for the wealthy and political elite, mostly for men but women are also involved. Secret societies are also involved, where loyalty between members ensures a greater degree of protection.


Source

We have long had a culture of disbelief and denial about what has happened to our children in society. Just because the idea is so horrible that we don't want to accept it to be real, doesn't mean we can just ignore, deny or dismiss what children tell us. That is condoning the abuse and becoming victimizers ourselves, as the child reaches out for help to be saved, only to be made to feel like they are crazy or are to blame for what happened to them.

We need to be supporting, protecting and bringing justice for abuse victims, not denying what happened to them. Governments won't investigate themselves and their employees. The Pentagon employees were involved in child pornography a few years ago. Pedophile rings involving politicians have been uncovered but justice was never carried out. Abuse is being silenced in our society, and this further isolates victims from getting the support they need. We as a society, as a larger family, are letting ourselves down and failing to do what is right for the children.

@krnel- another well written post on a topic most would not dig into because it is such disturbing truth.

I grew up in what I would describe a cult, believe it or not, "within" the Catholic Church. I put quotes around within because the church did not start it (a small group of "well" intending people) and struggled with what to do with it. At one point they forced this group out of the local Catholic Church when the group leader tried to gain power at the local church. She did this first by creating a choir that seemed to have some talent. Then she pushed her influence to grow her power and the members. She then gathered a core group of families to start a small group who met weekly as a small community. This group grew into a larger one that seemed well intentioned. Eventually they were putting on retreats, created sizable "community", influenced and participated in conferences and at the same time gained increasing influence over people and their children. They attracted families who were weak or had social, financial or other issues. They created a prayer partner network in which children were required to meet weekly so they could be pushed to complete devotion to the leader and her leadership. People were not allowed to date. You could only marry someone within the community because they were the only one that were acceptable to God. Kids were not allowed to have friends but acquaintances at school. They created isolation and if you didn't do what the group said was God's will, you were shunned, pushed out and eventually lost all relationships to the only people you had had relationships with.

I will someday write about this experience in greater detail. Cults, societies, abusers come in many shapes and sizes. They all force conformity, many promote abuses of weaker people and often flagrant abuses of children. The topic needs to be written about such that people not write off those who have experienced it as being crazy, disturbed or otherwise social misfits.

As human beings we are flawed and many seek wealth and power so they can have unchecked influence over people's lives. May God have mercy on all those who are victims to these people.

Damn, that's a cult alright... it's easy for people to be manipulated.

I only learned about Donald Marshall recently, and his story is awful! I'm still torn between believing it (and not believing him (I'm having a hard time with the cloning thing..), although I know that much of what he says makes a lot of sense, and I now that these rituals and pedophile encounters among the powerful take place.

Have you heard of Marl Dutroux? That guy kidnapped children and abused them in Belgium. He was arrested in the late 80's, however his trial was so sloppy and they took so long to even arrest him (despite many witnesses coming forward) that it became clear that he was protected by politicians...it was a huge scandal in Belgium, but it shows that it's very difficult to go against those inn power.

No I didn't know about that person. Thank you for mentioning it. I dunno about DM either... but I can talk about related topics that are more demonstrable realities ;)

Alex Jones talks a lot about this and how the powers at be do this to control the population. It's very disturbing, but what can we do about it? Anarchy sounds good on paper, but once in place, people will start to deviate back to an oligarchy to maintain peace again. Someone always has to be in power and unfortunately, evil, greed...etc will always be apart of it.

This is sickening. How these people wouldn't be held back by their conscience is beyond me. Well I guess the answer is they don't have one and they're just evil. Thanks for sharing this.

Child abuse is the evil in society that acts as the glue that's holds together the corrupt and the power mongers...

its not easy putting together such wee written post on these types of subjects - as you do.
