I disagree with LDS theology, I say without hestitation that it’s flat wrong.

Yet, the personal hands-on approach of counsel has commonalities both to cults AND to the orthodox/biblical Christian church. Read the biblical epistles and it’s inescapable that church fathers could get quite “nosey” into congregants’ affairs, if not a formal structure like this.

I disagree with it as well.

But those goofy kids with the ties and short sleeve shorts are not saying “Convert or die, infidel.”

Obama is WAY too cozy with the mooselimbs...and when they achieve significant numbers in the US, look out...

To me a cult differentiates itself from other religions not through theological beliefs - but via the adherence they insist upon from their members.

A cult wants 100% commitment of resources. If you own a van - the cult owns a van. If you own a 50 cal machine gun - the cult owns a 50 cal machine gun.

A religion usually only wants 10%.
