    Lots of them are good people in my experience. The religion can go off the rails with treating women as 2nd class (many religions unfortunately do that) and can be somewhat judgy depending on who they are (again, can be common in religion) but many would do anything to help their fellow people.

    Legalized abortion results in lower crime rates every time. Abortion bans result in higher crime rates and lower economic output every time. Everywhere it has been tried.

    And you would be wrong about abortion being child abuse. The constitution doesn't even recognize citizens until they are born according to the 14th ammendment.

    Technically, I view Mormonism as a cult.

    There are distinct differences in coffee beans as well ....you can Google that. A cult would be a group of people who blindly follow a leader who makes them promises....you should be familiar with that on several levels by now.

    Not necessarily. Another example of a cult would be Jehovah Witness.

    That's what religions are.

    Definition of cult:
    a system of religious veneration and devotion directed toward a particular figure or object.

    I'm not into religion(s). I have a personal relationship with Christ.

    you are an example so I can see why you have a hard time recognizing it. Being a MAGA cult member is much more dangerous than a religious doctrine.

    That's fine with me, as long as you don't try to control others based on that personal relationship.

    Once you do that it is no longer about you personally, and it become very personal to those you're trying to control.

    If you're supporting politicians who are perceived to be using religion to control people, and pointing to your religious convictions as the reason why you are supporting said politicians, then you will understandably be perceived to be using religion to control people.
