Definición

  • There is no single agreed-upon academic definition for the word cult, although it typically refers to a minority religious group, possibly with a charismatic leader, whose beliefs and practices are at variance from those of the majority culture. In popular parlance, the word cult is used to refer to any minority religious group that provokes concern, anxiety, and fear. [Source: Encyclopedia of Death and the Human Experience; Cult Deaths]
