Cults: Religions with fewer people.

I agree with you Davoarid, the majority will claim that the minority is a cult.  It may or may not be true, but the majority often makes the rules.

In early church history there were certain groups that believed in a christ figure or some messianic entity, but did not believe in Jesus as the Christ.  These are often refered to as "Christ cults" to differentiate them from Christianity.

Cults: Religions with fewer people. Grin
Not necessarily true. Cults are not defined by the number of adherents.
