Physical abuse is any nonconsensual physical harm: beating, punching, hitting, kicking, scratching, and slapping.
Ritualistic abuse is physical, sexual, or emotional abuse used in the context of a religious rite, such as raping someone as part of the rite, sacrifices etc.
Religious abuse is not just ritualistic abuse, but also such things as using religious tenets to excuse physical, sexual, or emotional abuse. Excusing one's physical abuse because the abuse victim is "evil", for instance, would in this author's opinion be religious abuse as well as physical abuse.
Financial abuse is controlling, someone's finances without their consent, including money for food, clothing, and shelter. An example would be, forcing someone to sign his or her check over to the perpetrator by beating the person.
On top of the things listed here, there's also "overusing something", e.g. abusing your power... or abusing your credit card. =) Mustn't forget substance abuse. Though I guess that's already been mentioned under a different name, "drug abuse"... And yet another name for it is "chemical abuse".

Sorry I have been gone for so long. I have too much shut going on. And if things continue the way they are, I'll end up where you were, or dead.
