Even just by the definition you posted, literally every single religion is generally considered extremist or false by every other religion and by folks who aren't superstitious, and therefore every single religion is a cult.

And you call my take edgy?

But even if we turn the focus to just Christianity, there's no biblical basis for establishing a pope or shit like purgatory - at some point we just decided to pin some dude with the title of Boss Christian and sprinkle in some other shit that isn't even part of Christian mythology.

The only difference between that and David Koresh is scale, so again even through the lens of Christianity, yeah it's a fucking cult.
