What makes a cult a cult
Definition wise, a cult is merely a religion. Christianity is technically a cult.
Colloquially itโs a con to take control of people who join. If they try to keep you from talking to others outside the group, keep you somewhere without allowing you to leave, and/or gaslight you into thinking youโre better off with letting their leaders make decisions for you: itโs a cult.
