Operation Clambake present: What is Scientology?
You may also have heard of other destructive cults, such as David Koresh’s Branch Davidians, Shoko Asahara’s Aum Shinrikyo, or Sun Myung Moon’s Unification Church. Here the term ‘cult’ refers to a movement that claims to be a religion – and which may indeed have all the trappings of a religion – but which in reality is harmful to its followers and/or to others. Example 2 …while Mormons profess to be Christians, they are outside orthodox Christianity and the Mormon Church is considered to be, theologically, a cult of Christianity. Source: Mormon Church, Apologetics Index entry Here the term ‘cult’ is used to indicate that the group in question has separated itself from the mainstream religion it claims to represent. (In this case, given that the theology and practice of the Mormon Church violates essential Christian doctrines, Mormonism does not represent historical, Biblical Christianity, is not a Christian denomination, and is not in any way part of the Christian church.)
