Feral Sheep David "Ransom" Backus

My name is David, and I am a religious addict. These words sounded strange to my own ears when I first uttered them. I turned them over and over in my mind, as one plays a strange food upon their tongue, trying to analyze the flavor and texture. Religious addiction, referred to as a process addiction, akin to that of gambling, is a real issue that plagues millions of people across the world. Feral Sheep: Confessions of A Religious Addict discusses the ongoing, long term psychological ramifications and major hurdles that victims of religious and spiritual abuse, and cult indoctrination face, from compounded mental health problems later in life, as well as addiction. Follow the author of Lost Sheep on an all new journey through Western Christian thought, with observations, insights, and autobiography exposing the core pillars of the broken system that is built on the sentiments of the human heart, keeping a repeat consumer business, and, much like a Casino, thriving off of a process addiction which has potentially untold, profound consequences on individual lives, families, and society as a whole.
