I think a brain washer would qualify as a spiritual rapist. I think the
person who used that term against someone on the MidiMag list liked to use
heavy artillery and did not really think of what he was saying. That's the
sadness when people blurt out immature things that have no foundation in
what was really being discussed. He was basically farting in the wind as far
as I'm concerned. Back to your urban definition, I'd say when someone is
placed in a situation where he is bombarded with one offensive idea without
any chance to recuperate, get his bearings, fight back, that would be
spiritual rape.
That's too long to put in the dictionary.
