One of the biggest Christian cults of all is the Roman Catholicism which worships Pope as God.

what a load of rubbish.....Pope is not God and never worshipped as one...
and cults are banned in Singapore....
get your facts right....
Got I seen before mormon missionaries. They wanted me to give me a free copy of book of mormon.
I decline.
any syncretic religion that combines elements of other religions is a cult
for example: T'ienTao (TianDao) or I-Kuan-Tao (Yiguandao) in Asia , Cao Dai in Vietnam and Ch'ondogyo in South Korea
they are considered a 'cult' to any religion which they have syncretized, therefore they can be considered Christian cult, Buddhist cult, Catholic cult, Taoism cult at the same time

Roman Catholicism is the original church and trace lineage from St Peter
in this aspect, Protestantism is the biggest cult

cults are not banned in singapore, simply because there isnt any definition for one
its only those that threatened secular rules and social order which got banned, ie, JW etc

As for vegetarian. In the bible before we humans are allowed to eat meat we eat plants . After the noah flood we are allowed eat meat.First humans in bible are vegetarian but now we can eat meat. God gave permission.
But bible is not against vegetarianism. U want eat vegetarian food it's ok. ( as long never sacrifice to idols)

Not sure. I am not from there. But vegetarianism is not important to Christians.
We can be vegetarians for health reasons.

so JW is a cult right? and they are banned.
maybe the definition of cults is simply one that threatened secular rules and social order which in itself cover a wide scoop...

but then Protestantism don't threatened secular rules and social order right? if they do, then surely kena banned by now.... so how do they fit in as cult? i am just borrowing your own definition of cults....
but having said that, maybe the mega churches may one day be banned juding from the shit they are dishing out....

It's another website dedicated to suckers only.
Q&A time.
SAB author Steve Wells : - Because so many people believe it to be the Word of God -- most of whom have never read it and are not familiar with its contents. I'd like people to look carefully at the Bible and decide if it is worthy of their belief. That's all. When, if ever, people stop believing in the Bible, I'll take my site down. "
Is his statement true? The website is still up in the internet? Then SAB has failed it's main purpose.

Isn't it clearly stated when people stop believing in the Bible, he'll take his site down by then. Since the site is not yet taken down, that means people is still believing the Bible at this point of time la.
He can't take down his site now, because now still got at least one person who believes in the Bible, and that person is YOU.

If that site can destroy 4 religions namely mormons,judaism,islam and christianality. The site would have closed down already.
Take note he also gt Koran,mormons and hebrew bible.
A religion that have been around for so long and have many followers can be so easily destroyed?
