   In one of his novels (in a series that begins with a trucker and a 
suicidal english teacher being abducted by a dimensional traveller called 
Throckmorton P. Ruddigore) Jack L. Chalker defined a religion as a cult that 
had attracted
more than 10% of the population.
   ...actually, he was making a point about the way religion is depicted in 
fantasy novels, but I still think it's one way to look at it.
