Cult

The word cult is defined as "a system of religious veneration and devotion directed toward a particular figure or object." The word "cult" was originally used not to describe a group of religionists, but for the act of worship or religious ceremony.

Religion use to be how you fulfilled your obligation to God to love your neighbor and therefore was the fulfillment of your obligation to care for your neighbor.

Borrowed via the French culte the word cult was first used in the early 17th century, It was originally from the Latin cultus which meant worship. The word worship was they what you did to fulfill that obligation of care for your fellowman. There were different ways to do that.

The adjective cultus could mean inhabited, cultivated, or worshiped in the sense of how you took care of the needy members of society. It was derived from the Latin verb colere meaning to care for or even to cultivate.

Able was a shepherd that cared for his sheep but Cain was a cultivator of the soil. He tilled the ground or what was called the adamah.

Genesis 4:2 And she again bare his brother Abel. And Abel was a keeper of sheep, but Cain was a tiller of the ground (adamah).

The word translated tiller is from the Hebrew word דבע , ‘abad which is a verb translated serve 227 times, do 15, till only 9 times and even worshippers 5 times but it also was translated servant, work, service, dress, labour, ear, and several other ways. While it is defined as "to work, serve" we also see it defined as "to labour" "to be worked" "to compel to labour or work, cause to labour, cause to serve" or even "to be led or enticed to serve".

Adamah is what God made Adam from.

Just as the word religion has changed or been changed, so also has the word cult come to mean "a misplaced or excessive admiration for a particular person or thing."

Are public welfare schemes simply a cult run by men who call themselves Benefactors but exercise authority over the people causing them to work and serve them like Cain in his first city State?
