    Religion, cults and sects are as concepts interconnected.

    Oh, for sure. These ideas are related, but to claim that they are only separable by time is disingenuous.

      Oh no, I never said that they are only separable by time but that one is the predecessor or root of the other and that religions can spawn new cults of their own.

      It can’t only be time that transforms the one into the other, because otherwise we would have 100th of religions right now from all the sects and cults that have existed in the past.

        You may not have said it, but you typed it. Lets look at the replay.

        And you can equate religions and cults because the only difference between the two is time.

        It can’t only be time that transforms the one into the other

        I agree with you here.

          Oh I see where this misunderstanding comes from. I am not IninewCrow, I just thing the general concept of this idea is interesting and gave it my own spin.

          So he/she said the thing with the time, I said everything in the posts below it :D
