Cult checklist  

 1. A movement that separates itself from society, either geographically or socially;
   2. Adherents who become increasingly dependent on the movement for their view on reality;
   3. Important decisions in the lives of the adherents are made by others;
   4. Making sharp distinctions between us and them, divine and satanic, good and evil, etc. that are not open for discussion;
   5. Leaders who claim divine authority for their deeds and for their orders to their followers;
   6. Leaders and movements who are unequivocally focused on achieving a certain goal.

Smugs:
Isaac Hayes shows his self to be a hypocrite, all the years the show has been around not once did he say anything about other religions and beliefs being mocked but when his beliefs gets the South Park treatment he chucks his toys out of the pram.

maximusotter:
Islam, Christianity, and Judaism can all devolve into cults around personalities. Thats what mainstream Christianity has done in the states with these mega-churches and huckster ministers.

Its also the style of quite a few imams who manipulate folks to do their bidding.

Then you have Madonna and all those red string wearin idjuts...
