Glad to see you've decided what you want to do with your time here, though..and that it;s nothing so tedious as anything to do with christ or gods or salvation.
Sure it is. That is why the OP states proof of the Creator in DNA.

It is not a cult. It is the ultimate reality.
All reality are equal. There is no such thing as ultimate reality.
When hucksters say “ultimate reality”, what they means is “I can’t profit from you to my own contentment through a discussion of reality, but you look like a moron and susceptible to whatever bullshit I push on you, so I am going to scare you by claiming I have access to something even bigger than reality”.

Psh, I have the super-ultimate reality, that encompasses all of the disparate ultimate realities.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Looks like you possess most/all of the traits of a cult to me.

According to some sources, the difference between a religion and a cult is that the figure of worship in a cult is a living human. Other than that, they're the same.

So Christianity doesn’t even rise to the status of a cult, but dearly wishes to ascend to the status of a cult by dreaming about their figure of worship becoming a living human again.

There's an easy way to remember the difference. Christianity is a religion. Each sect of christianity is a cult. The same is true of other faiths. Take egyptian religion (since it;s been in thread). Theres the total body of that faith..and then the cult of set, the cult of isis, etc.
This is why one protestant group may employ counter-cult ministries against other protestant sects..or catholicism. I think that it;s ironic, that everyone in every cult thinks that everyone else is in a cult...and they;re all completely right about that.

Good point. However, many of the empty, shallow and infantile posts are in response to the OP's empty, shallow and infantile posts.

The cults in Egyptian religion is unlike the sects of Christianity. The cults in Egyptian religion puts particular emphasis the seeking of particular favor from one demi-god or deity or another, but does not deny or minimize other dirties or Demi-gods in the pantheon. There is not necessarily any doctrinal conflict between sects. The might be compared to the cult of various saints in Roman Catholicism.
Christian sects are in doctrinal conflict with each other. The Egyptian counterpart might be the worship of Atan under Akanatan vs the worship of classical Egyptian pantheon including the likes of Horus, Ammon and Isis.
