Is taking someones book away considered spiritual abuse?
Taking someone's book away by itself is not inherently considered spiritual abuse. However, whether it constitutes spiritual abuse or not depends on the context and intent behind the action. Spiritual abuse typically involves the misuse of spiritual or religious beliefs to manipulate, control, or harm someone emotionally, psychologically, or physically. 

If taking someone's book away is done with the intent to control their access to certain beliefs, ideas, or knowledge, and is accompanied by coercive or manipulative tactics to enforce a particular spiritual or religious perspective, then it may be considered a form of spiritual abuse. On the other hand, if taking someone's book away is done for reasons unrelated to their spiritual or religious beliefs, such as concerns about the content being inappropriate or harmful in a different way, it may not be classified as spiritual abuse. Therefore, the classification of taking someone's book away as spiritual abuse or not depends on the specific circumstances surrounding the action.
