I pose this question to the Gulch as there is a widespread debate in another online I currently belong to. I will clarify, what I mean by Cult is a religious movement that has a great deal of influence and power over their members, often to the detriment of the member's mental and physical well being. Members will refuse certain medical treatments for themselves and their children which could lead to unnecessary death for example. There are laws against murder, but what about cults that drive people to suicide by manipulation? I'm curious as to what Gulch members have to say about this...
