Episode 25: The Anatomy Of A Cult

When you hear the definition of what a cult is, you start to realize it sounds awfully similar to definitions of other groups of people, philosophies, and ideas. We hear about the big cults, the ones that end in tragedy or gather the most followers, but what separates them from religions, and what about the smaller ones that can happen right under our noses? In this Planet Fear episode, we take a look at what makes a cult, a cult.

Informative

I've known what cults were, but never put any thought into there being different categories and definitions of cults. Growing up around the walnut bend area, callisburg, Gainesville TX. I have had an experience with a few friends back in the 80's accidentally walking upon what was called devil worshipers at night by the old toll bridge. We never went back down there again to camp lol. One of a few of the scariest moments in my life. This episode opened my eyes about the several types of cults I never even thought existed, guess I shouldn't have been surprised with the way this world is going.
