Rapture incomplete definition


eye just looked up the definition and found what is generally given to be incomplete here is additional info on words from the same root with same context.

Rape is a crime where the victim is forced into activity, (sexual or non)
AGAINST HIS OR HER OWN WILL. The word originates from the Latin rapere: to seize or take by force. The Greek word for "abduct" is "harpazo," which also means "to rape/to abduct"

Originally, the word rape was akin to rapine, rapture, raptor, and rapacious, and referred to the more general violations, such as looting, destruction, and capture of citizens that are inflicted upon a town or country during war, eg. the Rape of Nanking. Today, some dictionaries still define rape to include any serious and destructive assault against a person or community. From Wikipedia
