that is a religion

whereas when my uncle did that...

Hmm -

I would say the difference is that PROOF has been given and "felt by many" to the EXISTENCE of GOD / CHRIST.... where as there are usually only a small amount of people that follow other people claiming today that they are the TRUE CHRIST - and usually with out PROOF.

LoVe,
Rhapsody -

P.S.

It is like being YOU or ME.....
there can only be ONE of US and if any one else was to claim to ME or YOU, then they would be a FAKE, and if they pushed their claim as FACT and GAINED followers then it would become a CULT.
