RE: BACKWARDS WORLD: Today diversity instead means conformity...
Really CULT and RELIGION only have two differences.
- They become accepted by the culture/government.
- They are larger and that is likely why number 1 happened.
Otherwise, I see no distinct difference between the word CULT and RELIGION. In fact, virtually every religion I am aware of started out considered a CULT.
I see a cult as an interest followed with an exaggerated zeal. It can for be anything: both religious or not.
If you study history that actually describes the early days of virtually every religion. :) They actually were often called a CULT for some time.
