Do you disagree that Christians should “earnestly contend for the faith” once delivered unto the saints or should we all just sit back and let cults draw in unsuspecting souls because it doesn’t matter what anyone believes as long as they are “good” people?

Beautifully framed question, but it’s not what I’m talking about. You are clear in your assertion of backing for your faith while calling others cults.

What makes your faith superior and un-cultish?

I remember the first time I went to an evangelical church. I was appalled at the lack of seriousness. It went like this: Read some scripture to the crowd, listen to the leader. Say you’re sorry, take the sacrament, give your donation, claim you’re forgiven and smile.

What if all that is a spiritual scam? What if this is terribly wrong? Oh, let’s not think of that, let’s criticize others and call them names; yeah, that’s how to make it work.
