I think the difference between a cult and a religion is the number of followers. If Islam or Christianity were to have a few thousand members (a little minority) we would 100% consider them cults. And terrible/crazy/primitive ones for that matter.
Humans can be so brilliant, and yet so dumb....

So wait the Roman Empire adopted Christianity but the people living in Rome thought of Christianity as atheism and superstition? I don't get it :D - I have to read the sources :P

after a few hundred years Rome adopted Christianity. At first it didn't. That's where the Christian's getting fed to lions came from

in reply to Tio • • •Yeah religion is crazy but this is still incredibly sad man, those people didn't deserve to die 😔 As the effects of climate change worsen over time this is gonna affect more and more people's lives, not just because of heat but more frequent natural disasters and stuff like that.....
And speaking of religion, if this was any other place I'm sure it would've been shut off for safety reasons, but humans are stupid 😐
