From "Satanic Abuse Back on the Agenda" by SAFF

Devil Report is over-cooked and two years overdue!
On 5th October 1996, before the ink was dry on the Department of Health's cheque news of Valerie Sinason's and Dr Hale's Devil Report was leaked in front page headlines by the fundamentalist Christian magazine New Christian Herald. Before the study had even been concluded the NCH crowed  

The article went on to lambast Professor La Fontaine's report and claimed that Sinason's report ' will turn on its head the previous findings and is set to call for a U-turn in Government thinking'. The front page article, claimed to be an 'exclusive' was penned by Andrew Boyd.

Boyd is a fundamentalist Christian agitator who has played a key part in promoting the existence of the Satanic Ritual Abuse Myth for sectarian purposes. He is well known to the SAFF. He has a background of intense christian sectarian activity including publishing religious tracts and organising their distribution amongst the public. He was the producer and presenter of a documentary now known amongst satan-hunter watchers as the Bogus Devil Video Programme. Boyd claimed to present a film showing actual satanic ritual abuse in a Channel 4 Dispatches programme

The claims of the video's existence had believers in the myth rushing into print with 'told-you-so' articles and demands that the government act against Satanic Abuse - however they fell strangely silent when it was found that the 'satanic' video turned out to be a piece of performance art ! Obscure though the video may have been t, it had a film rating and anyone over 1 could walk into music shops in major cities and buy a copy.

When the people who made the video turned up on Right to Reply to challenge Boyd and he admitted that he DID know the true origins of the film, there were many people in the Establishment with egg on their faces, including Channel 4 TV who have still to this day not apologised for foisting what was essentially sectarian propaganda upon the British public. The Obscene Publications Squad carried out a raid on a South Coast address on the strength of Boyd's claims. That investigation simply proved the video was not what Boyd said and no prosecutions followed.

Boyd also networked with the star fundamentalist christian agitators involved in the 1988/89 scare some of whom were publicly disgraced by media exposes when their true sectarian intentions became known. Boyd has written books attacking the occult which are published and distributed by Christian publishing outfits. He was a leading member of an American based fundamentalist Christian outreach called Prophetic World Ministries which has as its declaration of intent enforced acceptance of the bible as the word of god. The Prophetic World Ministries magazine has in the past carried what we see as clearly racist (anti-muslim) and anti-semitic articles. Boyd used to edit an off-the-wall pull-out supplement to PWM's magazine called God's Word Now which he also supplied in bulk to fundamentalist activists for distribution on the streets. At the time of writing the above article Boyd was the acting editor of The New Christian Herald.

We do not doubt Mr Boyd's sincerity in his own beliefs, but there is absolutely no way that Mr Boyd can be described as anything other than a fundamentalist christian missionary agitator who spends the majority of his time promoting christianity at the expense of other beliefs.
