a religious group which promotes worship of a human leader and devotion of one's life to a specific purpose.

Some have members practice certain rituals or follow a set of principle rules. The group usually believes its way is the only correct way to live life, and all non-members are doomed to some horrible fate if they cannot be persuaded to join.

Most christians and/or other religious beleif systems are offended by cults.
cult member: dude i just joined a cult!
Christain: what the fuck, why?
Cult member: because it seemed cool, and they'd kill me if i didn't join.
Christain:hmm, that kindof reminds me of a gang.
