    American religion¹ is an apocalyptic death cult.

    1 — Not to be confused with christianity (or its offshoots), which is also a death cult, but generally less focused on the apocalypse, sports, money, greed as a virtue, malls, advertisements, and so on.

      Christianity was literally started as an apocalypse cult. Maybe it isn’t as focused on it now (though it isn’t a small part), but it is an apocalypse cult.
