Noam, your question was what the characteristics of a cult are, right? So that’s really a question of semantics, and there’s no point debating it. I understand it as a question asking: after we know what a cult is, and assuming the characteristics are agreed upon by everyone, do the Haredim, on the factual level, meet those criteria? Is that what you meant? And if so, what made you think they do?
