| | A new religious movement or NRM is a religious, ethical, or spiritual grouping of fairly recent origin which is not part of an established religion and has not yet become recognised as a standard denomination, church, or religious body. | | | Some scholars, especially in sociology of religion, use the term "new religious movement" to refer to any non-mainstream religion, while others use "new religious movement" for the majority of benign alternative religions and reserve "cult" to label groups—whether religious, psychotherapeutic, political or commercial—they believe to be extremely manipulative and exploitative. | | | At the time of their foundation, many religions or religious traditions considered "established" or "mainstream" today were original seen as new religious movements, as it were, in their time. |
