According to Mike Mudock, a great preacher, “the most fertile ground on earth is the burial ground” Why? “Many people have died in their prime with their dreams, goals and aspiration in life.”
When I remember these words, my heart skips a beat because, ordinarily, these people would not have died. Many people, particularly youths, have died for nothing while others have been maimed for life because of cult activities. Some are just a bundle of waste because, academically, they are no where. In fact, they are useless to themselves, there family and the society at large. They are perpetually in search of trouble and where there is none, they forment it. The most terrible aspect of the whole thing is that some parents know that their children and wards are involved in one cult or the other, but they turn their eyes to the other side. With the spate of cultism, one may be tempted to say that cultism is now institutionalized because both the young and old are now involved. In the past, we know that cultism was associated with undergraduates in higher institutions, but these days, we find pupils in primary school and students in secondary schools, what can we say. The world is in maze.
The Oxford Advanced Learners Dictionary defines a cult as a way of life, an attitude or idea which has become very popular. It is also a group of people who have extreme religious beliefs and who are not part of any established religion. So, a from-all indication, a cult is not an approved organization. It is practiced in the secret, therefore, it is illegal. From the word cult, we have “cultism” which is the act of engaging or involving oneself in a treacherous activity that can mar one’s destiny. It is a destiny destroyer.

Now that sounds familiar.Don't christians claim that christianity is a way of life?

The uni students grew up in a society split into two big cults namely, islam and christianity, and it has become a sort of acquired habit.
