KINGOFNOOBS,
WHAT IS A CULT?I am saying Jesus shared the same traits and characteristics like other every cult leader. You need to read the link carefully.
Keep in mind, the term of cult doesn't mean a bad thing - just that christianity happened to fit the description of cult whether u like it or not.
Yea all of these links indicate that Christianity do fit the description of cult but christians dont like the connotation comes with 'cult' - thinking cult is bad thing which it isn't.
But they think it is ok to call other religions cults. Isnt that a form of egoism?

FYI, that isn't a form of egoism. Cult means a false doctrine and that it don't follow the Bible what Jesus taught. I don't THINK it is ok to call other false doctrine a cult. I do KNOW it that they are cults.
For authoritative British usage, the Compact Oxford English Dictionary of Current English definitions of "cult" and "sect" are:
cult[2]
1 a system of religious worship directed towards a particular figure or object.
2 a small religious group regarded as strange or as imposing excessive control over members.
3 something popular or fashionable among a particular section of society.
Noobs, can you please have a civilized discussion without calling people crack addicts? You'd get more mileage out of it.
You are contradictin' Jesus' teachin'. You came to cross His Words to penknife His Truth.
What's YOUR definition of a cult ? And, for your information - I don't smoke crack pipe. I am straight and clean.

Figuratively, literally, schmiguratively! It's all the same: An insult; a put-down showing an inability to discuss with civilty.
No results found for schmiguratively.
Did you mean (Sarah) Margaret Fuller (in dictionary) or Sarah Margaret Fuller (in encyclopedia)?
Huh? I am not diminishing jesus' teaching. I am merely point out that Christianity is cult like other religion groups.
ok let me make this simple for you to understand.
Cult itself is not BAD thing and it is just a "term" of defining a group who worship something constantly , in your case, God/Jesus.
I.e drug itself is not bad but it is just a term which means that it simulate or affect ur body/mind. it can be either good or bad depends on pp's perspective.
Dont take it too literally when I said "put down crack pipe".
Cult = to reject Jesus or to make Him out of someone's life. Cult is a BAD thing - IMHO/POV.
That CULT can not mix with what Jesus taught since He is the Truth. You need to study the Bible some more to understand the definition of what a " cult " means. The Bible will tell you. You can't depend on the website for its interpretation or definition.
1 John 1:1 to 1 John 2:12 said:In this Gospel John provides clear evidence that Jesus is the Son of God and that by believing in him we may have eternal life. John also provides unique material about Jesus' birth. He did not come into being when he was born, because He is eternal!
