NOTE: This thread isn't meant to be taken too seriously, this is just a thought experiment.
Humans are animals, right? So is it possible for other intelligent animals to create their own cult?
I believe that this could happen if:
1) The species in question is actually intelligent enough to form their own society of beliefs
2) The species' society is large and diverse enough for a splinter group to appear
3) The society in question doesn't need to be religious, it just has to have differences in opinion.
I mean, it's unlikely that a group of tree frogs would form a cult, but a group of gorillas or dolphins on the other hand...
Humans have formed animal worship cults in the past, so why not go full circle with a cult of animals worshipping humans? (And yes, I did try Googling "can animals form a cult", but all I got were stories of animal worship cults)
On a side note, I wonder just how dark a cult formed by animals could get...
