Let’s see here.

The Merriam-Webster online dictionary lists five different meanings of the word “cult” 32.

1.Formal religious veneration
2.A system of religious beliefs and ritual; also: its body of adherents;
3.A religion regarded as unorthodox or spurious; also: its body of adherents;
4.A system for the cure of disease based on dogma set forth by its promulgator;
5.Great devotion to a person, idea, object, movement, or work (as a film or book).

The Random House Unabridged Dictionary definitions are:

1.A particular system of religious worship, esp. with reference to its rites and ceremonies;
2.An instance of great veneration of a person, ideal, or thing, esp. as manifested by a body of admirers;
3.The object of such devotion;
4.A group or sect bound together by veneration of the same thing, person, ideal, etc;
5.Group having a sacred ideology and a set of rites centering around their sacred symbols;
6.A religion or sect considered to be false, unorthodox, or extremist, with members often living outside of conventional society under the direction of a charismatic leader;
7.The members of such a religion or sect;
8.Any system for treating human sickness that originated by a person usually claiming to have sole insight into the nature of disease, and that employs methods regarded as unorthodox or unscientific.

Oh yea, I think some of the definitions apply.

😆 Another uniting factor of cults is that the leaders always manage to get money off their followers… 😆
