Please creatively come up with a new word for us if that makes you feel better.

I don't like using it, unless it is defined, simply because of what I have said over and over....many tie unfavorable connotations to the word when the word originally meant any worshiper in a thing or person.
If you want to label a group "cult" that's your business. I think for clarity though when we refer to a group as a cult, we should specify why instead of just using the word cult. Mind Control cult, or Psychological cult. It doesn't necessarily have to be religious in nature. Followers of some "think positive" speaker can be in a mind control cult.
