'Religion' is a synonym for 'cult'
Nope.
Ya.
Still wrong.
...
Certain traits tend to be involved with so-called Cult movements, which might include secrecy, a charasmatic authoritarian leader, intense indoctrination, and dificulty leaving the cult, but none of these are present in every 'cult'like situation.
So it's not a pearl of wisdom. It's just a slur.
(About the bolded section) This can be used to define a Cult or a Religion.
My belief is that they are the same, only thought of differently.
....On a parallel line of thinking, I have equally odd/controversial POV's on Sex, and Politics (But I'm not gonna post in the politics thread...EVER*).
