Gaaahhhh, yeah. I'm not expressing this well. I know, a religion is a large popular cult. A cult is a small unpopular religion.
Ok, I'll try to avoid using words which are semantically vague.
Do me a favor. If you've not already, watch that documentary I posted the link to. I can tell you from first hand experience that at least some of that is quite true and its fucking scary. Its much more than just a kooky set of beliefs.
I would not describe Islam as a cult. Or hinduism, buddhism, satanism, bieberism, the jehovahs wittnesses (although they have a few tendencies that way) or the mormans. I'm using the word to describe something quite different to "stuff I don't believe in".
