what would make a religion any different than a cult?
I think i hae a pretty good answer for this one: a cult is based mostly in unsubstantiated, non-provable evidence. Some religions, for the most part, like to believe they have been based on provable historical, scientific evidence that can be corroborated. I feel most religions in the world are mostly just cults in disguise, there are very few in the world that would stand up to any real scientific/historical scrutiny. However, there are some that could and do stand up under that type of scrutiny.
