      Jesus was a hippy, who whipped scammers at a temple. Mohommed raped a nine year old and was a warlord.

              It’s better to just downvote, really. You are always running the risk that you’re helping a troll earn his paycheque. I’m sure this fellow is not being paid, he seems very dedicated to dunking on [women with mental illness] on a personal level.

              (edit for grammatical clarity; “mentally ill” is still often used pejoratively by people like the one you’re responding to…)

                  That’s cute.

              it’s not like apostasy is a requirement for the definition of a cult.

              depending on which of the dictionary definitions you’re going by, a cult could be anything from a religious system of veneration for a figure, to a group with extreme beliefs outside of that of an established religion.

              to me it seems like the only common denominator for all of the definitions is that the group is smaller than that of a religion.
