| | Satan's Silence, an investigation co-authored by a journalist and an attorney, discusses the nationwide panic regarding ritualistic abuse at daycare centers. | | | At that point the country was swept by an epidemic of allegations that murders, sexual or ritual abuse of children, and ritual sacrifice of animals were commonplace activities among satanists. | | | On Geraldo, Geraldo ceased being a journalist, despite his claim that many of shows represented "special investigative reports." The opposition point of view, when presented at all, was typically given to leaders of established Satanic churches like the Church of Satan or the Temple of Set rather than to nay-saying journalists or scholars. |

| | Undocumented allegations of ritual abuse, Satanic or otherwise, are often built solely on what therapists call "recovered memories," but which critics refer to as "false memories"- therapy-induced fantasies masquerading as memories that seem very real to the person being treated. | | | Ritual abuse is the abuse of a child, weaker adult, or animal in a ritual setting or manner. | | | Because professionals disagree about what constitutes "ritual abuse," and no mechanisms are in place at the local, state, or national levels to track reports of ritual abuse or to investigate the validity of ritual elements, no reliable data are available about its prevalence. |

| | Memories of Satanic ritual abuse may be at least partially unconsciously created "screen memories." A screen memory is a memory that we create -- as a screen -- to protect us from the horror of a real memory. | | | These memories are usually "recovered memories"-- memories that emerge later in life, although some abuse survivors report continuous memories of Satanic ritual abuse -- memories which they have always had. | | | It is hypothesized that stories of Satanic rituals were implanted as screen memories in case these subjects began to remember being programmed. |
