You may want to up your fact checking skills.

  1. Guccifer has absolutely no insight in the Hillary Clinton
  2. The guy who jokes about sacrificing a chicken hates Hillary Clinton. And he is joking about supersititons.
  3. Did you even look up Owl Minerva rule? https://www.reference.com/art-literature/owl-minerva-1ce1487913e986e
  4. Do you think penance involves being in a cult? For one the first defintion in your image shows you can use it outside of a religious context. Because I don't think Catholics are in a cult.

You don't think Catholics are a cult? Why? Because they're more of a military or...?

cult (kŭlt) n. A religion or religious sect generally considered to be extremist or false, with its followers often living in an unconventional manner under the guidance of an authoritarian, charismatic leader. n. The followers of such a religion or sect. n. A system or community of religious worship and ritual.

If you think Catholicism meets that first definition, you have never really spent any time with Catholics.

I think a lot of people are desensitized to how extreme the implications of Christianity... and the level of ritual that's involved in Catholicism specifically. They have a figurehead that is recognized as such. They chant chants in dead languages. The romanticize cannibalism. It exists on the importance and power of secrecy (the apostles being the elites and given insight, the common folk being shown "miracles" and told "riddles" to insight faith), and the idea that going against the leaders is seen as prideful and merits being cast out of heaven (God> Satan> Man relationship).

Very extreme, cult-y, brainwashing.

If you want to call Clinton a cultist, because she is Christian, have at it. It's not what most folks, including probably OP.
