Spiritual Terrorism: Spiritual Abuse from the Womb to the Tomb Boyd C. Purcell Ph.d.

            Spiritual Terrorism is about the impact of fear-based religion on people's lives who have been spiritually abused by a negative conception of God through eternal hell-fire preaching and teaching.  The doctrine of eternal punishment in literal fire is at the heart of many forms of spiritual abuse and all forms of spiritual terrorism which is the most extreme form of spiritual abuse.  This book effectively explains the symbolic use of fire in the Holy Bible and other Holy Books.  The common misunderstanding of the metaphorical usage of fire is the primary cause of spiritual terrorism.

            Dr. Purcell clarifies the confusion over the Christian doctrine of salvation by grace and judgment which is based on the deeds of life-good or bad.  This allows readers to grasp the liberating truth that people are totally free to live their lives but are also totally accountable, at the end of life, for how they have lived their lives.  God will ultimately teach universal empathy and bring about perfect justice for all without violating anyone's free will.
