Disturbing

I read this book in 1993. It was so shocking I had to quit reading numerous times. This book is graphic in the darkest sense. I recently read about the scams this woman has perpetrated in her life. One thing that did disturb me was her description of ritual abuse and how these cults buy children. They either have a breeding house where they keep women in virtual slavery to have these kids or they put an ad in the paper. "Loving Christian Couple wanting to ADOPT without going through the adoption process." This ad is in every greensheet across the country. When I read that one afternoon after reading this book it sent shivers up my spine. I've seen these ads everywhere. Thats what is disturbing. What if it is true? What if these things are going on all over the country? The underground sex trade is all over. It is worldwide and evil. Thats a fact. All I know is I was mentally exhausted for months after reading this book. And horrified. Look in your greensheet the ad is there. Its been there for years. THAT is disturbing.

bogus book? bogus reviews.

Even if her story were fake, it's based on real such places. There's an underground satanic church here in my city. They call it "underworld." Not everyone knows of it, of course. But a friend of mine who used to be a member, but became christian while in jail informed me that people you'd least expect are members, and that they are involved in horrible acts. Like I said, if the story's fake, at least Lauren knows what she's talking about. And the Cornerstone review? I read it, but nowadays will you believe a "debunker" just because it's been christian-tagged? Come on, a similar signature means nothing! The article could have been issued as a plausible cover-up.

get closer to God

This book has tought me to get more closer to God,and I have learned more about the evil ways of satan.this book also teaches you how to ask God what you have to do before you do anything, for what God knows what is best for you.It also teaches that we can't be anything with out the glory of the Lord Jesus Christ, Our Savior.

A Must-read for survivors of SRA

Unfortunatly I myself have been were Lauren has been. Reading this book was so terrible but healing. Lauren is standing up. She is fighting for your childeren! One day I hope I will have the strength and courage she shows. One day I also hope to say that they didn't die for nothing. Lauren didn't suffer for nothing. She suffered to show me that there are more people like me and to show you that SRA does exist.

Excellent account of Satanic ritualistic abuse

I first read Lauren's book over 10 years ago. At that time, I had never heard of the kinds of things she describes in her book. The book was very moving to me, and shocking. I was stunned to hear that some dispute her book as a hoax, because many other people have come forward and described similar types of incidents. I met the woman at a church, and I feel that it is her true story. She is obviously a woman who has suffered great pain in her life. She is very closed-off, mysterious, and private. I called her from time to time at an answering service number, but it got connected and I lost track of her. After having met her, it is easy to believe that she suffered the things she describes. She definitely has the signs of someone who has been through hell and triumphed. She has the personality of someone who has suffered immensely. I have to wonder if the people who say she is lying don't believe in Satan, but I do.
