To me, they are one and the same. It seems that people recognize a cult as a religion once the cult claims large numbers of followers.

Therefore, if popularity and number of devotees is what changes a cult into a religion...what is the magic number? 1 million? More? Less?

Is Islam a cult or a religion. Angola believes Islam is a death cult and therefore has banned Islam from Angola.

Is Christianity a cult or religion?

What about Mormonism?

What about Scientology?

What about College Football?

If the teachings are true then it's religion, if they're bullshite it's a cult. Pretty simple really, and that's why there's only one real religion.

Serious answer...Openness...the more open they are with their faith the less likely they are cult-ish. The more secretive, the MORE likely.

I don't feel like it and quite frankly I don't give a damn.

LOL.

This is my thread. This is my narrative. You are just a pawn in this thread.

Are you a WASP? If so, congrats you are a member of a religion.

If not, you are probably a cultist.

Well your narrative is about to get whacked off anyway so I'm not even gonna bother correcting your ignorance. Shitting on religion is fine, but reporting inaccurate news is unforgivable.
