A cult is a small religion.
Religion is what you call a cult that got big, old and structured enough to make its members and non-members agree it's not a cult. A religion is simply a bunch of people collectively agreeing that Catholicism, Buddhism, _______ (place your preferred religion here) is not a cult. Take note, it's still a cult, albeit more persuasive, charming and mainstream enough...
