    Oh no, I never said that they are only separable by time.

    You may not have said it, but you typed it. Lets look at the replay.

    And you can equate religions and cults because the only difference between the two is time.

    It can’t only be time that transforms the one into the other

    I agree with you here.

    There is more difference than time. Cults require a charismatic, authoritarian leader, religions do not. One can be religious and autonomous in practice.

    Religions can be open source and decentralised, cults cannot.
