I've seen other asks, I'm a system and ex sda as well, do you think Seventh Day Adventists do programming and ritual abuse, intentionally or otherwise? Never thought to frame it like that but I was severely traumatized by that church growing up,developed severe scrupulosity ocd :/

The Seventh Day Adventists are considered a cult. They use methods of indoctrination and spiritual control.

There are some concerns about what occurs in the church.

“Unfortunately, violence against women is also prominent and an issue in the Church. The Seventh-day Adventist Church may be, both especially prone to domestic violence cases and yet have a protective measure at the same time. This is explained by the fact that domestic violence is said to be more common in small, theologically conservative religious groups. At the same time, domestic violence is twice as likely in families where the spouses belong to different religions. Given the low rate of Adventists marrying outside of their faith, this is likely a protective barrier. However, a random sample study conducted in 2006 of 1,431 Seventh-day Adventists from 70 churches across a five state region, found that 46% of survey participants reported that they experienced common couple violence, 29% reported experiencing sexual violence, while 10% reported severe physical violence. Though Dr. Williams shared several statistical figures, he emphatically declared, “the bottom line is [that] sexual harassment is common.” Source
