Creed=A creed is a statement or confession of belief — usually religious belief — or faith. The word derives from the Latin credo for I believe. It is sometimes called symbol (Greek, συμβολον), signifying a "token" by which persons of like beliefs might recognize each other.
Cult=a cult is a cohesive group of people (sometimes a relatively small and recently founded religious movement, sometimes numbering in the hundreds of thousands) devoted to beliefs or practices that the surrounding culture or society considers to be far outside the mainstream, sometimes reaching the point of a taboo.
