Amy Coney Barrett Holds Press Conference In Handmaid's Tale Costume Just To Mess With Liberals
". . . Barrett walked out in the red cloak and white bonnet, causing most of the reporters gathered to pass out instantly.
"If selected to serve on the Supreme Court, I look forward to forcing women to have babies and ushering in a Catholic theocracy," she said, holding back laughter. "In fact, the first decision I want to hand down is that women who don't have at least seven babies will be executed."
"All hail the Pope! All hail the Pope! All hail the Pope!"
"When you're getting accused of being a theocratic fascist, sometimes you just have to play along," she said afterward as she took off her red robe, revealing her normal black robe underneath. "It's fun to watch them freak out a bit."
There is some truth to that. After all, Amy does belong to a CULT.
Its name is “People of Praise,” and it’s complicated.

I get pretty tired of radical left wing atheists and humanists calling her a member of a "cult." She is a member of a church group. The Catholic Church is NOT a cult.
Let's look at the hallmarks of a "cult," since you seem to be completely ignorant of them, shall we?
. . . if you can identify the . . . ahm, cult leader? Maybe you might sound, well, rational. But you know you are not. You think this Lent guy is a "cult" leader when he is so open and willing to answer questions?
a: preoccupation with bringing in new members and making money
b: discouragement or punishment for any doubt or questioning of authority
c: a polarized “us vs. them” mindset
d: leadership is not accountable to any authority, either financially or morally
e: belief that “the ends justify the means” and readiness to use unethical means to achieve their goals
f: requiring members to socialize only with members of the cult
g: in more extreme cases, requiring members to cut ties completely with family or the outside community
Or, if you prefer one of your secularist "cult" publications for reference;
There isn't a single group that would ever admit to or advertise as being a cult. And why would they? The word 'cult' is explosive, loaded with connotations of brainwashing, lunatics, and mass suicide.

As you can see, she is not in any cult, so stop with your hyperbole already. Even your own article makes it obvious they are as much of a cult as the Amish are.
They are a communitarian and living co-op organization that believes in god. When the hippies of the sixities are considered a cult now, then, ya, I suppose you might be on point.
Stop already, you are embarrassing yourself.
