Italian priests join task force to counter Satanic cults Milan, Mar. 5, 2007 (CWNews.com) - Italian priests have joined with police detectives and psychologists in a task force created to respond to the activities of Satanic cults....The task force was put together to respond to a problem that is becoming increasingly prevalent in Italy. There are now an estimated 8,000 Satanic sects in the country, with more than 600,000 adherents.” _http://www.cwnews.com/news/viewstory.cfm?recnum=49656_ (http://www.cwnews.com/news/viewstory.cfm?recnum=49656) Mental abuse as traumatic as physical torture, study says Alan Zarembo, Los Angeles Times 3/6/07 "Degrading treatment and psychological manipulation cause as much emotional suffering and long-term mental damage as physical torture, researchers reported Monday. Psychiatric evaluations of 279 victims of torture and other abuses from the Balkan wars of the 1990s showed that both types of ill-treatment led to similarly high rates of depression and post-traumatic stress disorder. The victims themselves rated the psychological tactics on par with the physical abuses they suffered....What mattered most, Basoglu said, was the degree to which the victim felt a loss of control.” _http://sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2007/03/06/MNGT9OG3901.DTL_ (http://sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2007/03/06/MNGT9OG3901.DTL) <BR><BR><BR>**************************************<BR> AOL now offers free email to everyone.
