Didn't God have Oneness "In the Beginning"?

[ButterflyWoman]

So the difference is that other people's religions can be called cults, but not one's own?

Actually, the term "cult" doesn't really apply to the beliefs. It's the way the group acts and treats its members. There are very clear and common patterns associated with cults, which are NOT limited to religious beliefs. You should do some research on the topic of cults and find out for yourself. BUT... I never mentioned anything about a cult. I quoted a joke from a comedy film.

This thread started out as an interesting discussion about philosophical interpretations of what God is and what all this 'oneness' and spirituality is all about, and I'm sorry it took 'the usual' turn.

Yes, it would seem so. I'm going to stop adding fuel.
