Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Religious organizations that are led by a charismatic person and recruit members from only one segment of the stratification system are known as cults. These organizations are often characterized by authoritarian leadership and isolation from mainstream society. The term "sect" can also refer to such groups, but it is more commonly used to describe religious groups that have broken away from established denominations.
