Well let me think if any Christians will say "Christianity is a Cult" LOL
Christianity is a belief system that's been around for 2000 years, it's not a "fad" as someone else stated otherwise it wouldnt last more than a couple decades at best. It's not a CULT because cults are messured by how far they stray from Christianity orJudaism.

There are MANY different forms of Christianity; and some may be cults; but to label all Christians in such a way is unfair.

Much as some of us may see it that way, Christianity is too much part of the main stream to really be termed a cult.
You could certainly argue on the brainwashing of children, the requirement of the followers being uneducated, etc...but you'd likely be shot down at an abortion clinic by its followers somewhere were you to try and prove your point.

Christianity is the only true religion,a faith in God and Jesus.
The non-Christian Catholic church is a cult that does not follow God's Word.
The Catholic church says Mary was without sin, but God's Word says ALL have sinned, and that includes Mary.

Probably when it originally started it was considered both of those things, but it's gotten old enough now that those words are rarely used.

Neither. It's faith in the one true God, and salvation thru His Son, Jesus.
Thanks for asking.
