The difference seems to be, (although not by the dictionary, more like peoples definition) that the word cult just automatically adds a negative stigma. For me at least it seems that when you line up the different cults/religions, that don't seem all that different.
I actually know the Westboro Baptist church goes by the bible probably 100%. They are true Christians really. Which makes them annoying and probably very dangerous.

Apparently this fool and his church hate Australia...YAY! Does that mean he and his groupies will leave us alone??
One can only hope
The more footage I watch of them the more my hatred grows for them. Its really sad that they are going to my hometown just because of a film. What a bunch of dumb asses.
That fire that the Westboro people had got (explained in that video) , should have burnt them all alive. Just saying.

"It is far better to grasp the universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring." Carl Sagan
It is true, that which I have revealed to you; there is no God, no universe, no human race, no earthly life, no heaven, no hell. It is all a dream—a grotesque and foolish dream. Nothing exists but you. And you are but a thought—a vagrant thought, a useless thought, a homeless thought, wandering forlorn among the empty eternities!

"Fables should be taught as fables, myths as myths, and miracles as poetic fancies. To teach superstitions as truths is a most terrible thing. The child-mind accepts and believes them, and only through great pain and perhaps tragedy can he be in after-years relieved of them. In fact, men will fight for a superstition quite as quickly as for a living truth - often more so, since a superstition is so intangible you can not get at it to refute it, but truth is a point of view, and so is changeable."
