Whats the difference between a cult and a religion?
#19
RE: Whats the difference between a cult and a religion?
Don't know if this is real helpful but would a cult have the majority of those in management being insincere and a religion having at least a majority of management as sincere ?

(sincerely wrong, of course)

And in the case of of Scientology, for instance, where there seems to never have ever been anyone in management in the 'sincere' category, that would be defined as a criminal enterprise. (and theoretically, OT here)
