Definition
A religious sect is a term used to refer to a certain religious group, which considered it more proper for itself to separate from the main religious movement to which it belonged before and to practice religious doctrine, interpreting it in its own way; it is also possible that the sect has the so-called “founder” of the doctrine — the person who leads this sect is the author of its worldview concept, canon, ritual component, and so on.
