Being a cult doesn't preclude it's being an actual religion.  There are true believers and charlatans in every religion, I have no doubt about that at all.
Good point, but they might as well be worshiping C-47s.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

My political philosophy:

1) I'm not bothering anybody.
2) It's none of your business.
3) Leave me alone!
