Are there any differences between having a religion and going to church, to a cult?

    Thank you for your reply.

    My experience has been the compete opposite. Despite being brought to church when young, at 8 I can remember wondering what on earth this was all about. My only inner voice is what I would call my mind, and is most definitely me.

    Oh, I had my fair share of wasted time at chruch as well! Perhaps you should try listening to the inner you?

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    Rather than being a distinct separate voice it is just the result of engaging with my own brain in a different way.

    The "higher self" I and many people access through techniques like meditation is for us merely the result that comes from changing the nature or structure of that conversation.

    Now that I can understand.

    My inner me (my mind) has great debates, that I can't but hear. ;)
