I think the A&M Aggies are a cult, but I definitely dont think they are a religion.
I think Manchester soccer fans are a cult, but they are definitely not a religion.
Definitions of cult on the Web:
2. panaxanax likes to use the word, CULT, a lot.
3. THERFORE, he(?) must consider us ANTI-MORMONism folks to be a RELIGION, though false. (3 outta 4...)
You fail. 1st, panaxanax never attacked your religion (Wesleyan, I believe). So, you fail there. Maybe he considers you to be a cult in the 5th definition of Webster - great devotion to a person, idea, movement, or work. Maybe he believes you a cult of people devoted to an anti-Mormon movement. Your failure is in trying to know what his definition of cult is without asking him.
So yes, your logical jump fails.
Also, from Webster (not “Web definitions”), cult comes from the Latin cultus meaning care or adoration.
