Well at least we know these Anonymous folks come from upstanding, mature, and scholarly communities. Any word on if they've joined interweb forces with Ebaumsworld and YTMND.com to confront this grave threat to Democracy itself?!

Venen, you can't cherry-pick the definitions and then claim that only yours apply to the word. If you're going to make a definition part of the debate, you have to explain why your chosen definition(s) should be used and the others shouldn't. Of course your personal preference doesn't satisfy anyone else on that issue.
Did you actually read my posts? There was no cherry-picking involved, I went through each definition - several of them had the implication of religion, at least one was unrelated, and the other 2 were out of the context with the kind of cult we're referring to(as Fribur pointed out).
Even assuming I didn't "explain" why they should be used, which I already did, it's pretty self-explanatory when you have 2 contextually different definitions and one that is completely unrelated that you would choose the only definitions left that qualify. Unless you felt like creating a new definition out of thin air.
