The cult of Kalvin Korff?

Kalvin appears to have an obsession with cults or any other similar organization. In doing some research on Kalvin I have found he (laughably) went "undercover" at some new age flying saucer cult in Switzerland. Kalvin moved on to the flying saucer community and then on to terrorist groups.

Now, it may just be me, but it is odd that Kalvin is now the supposed figurehead for his own secret organization. Perhaps Kalvin may be jealous of the success of these other nutty cult and terror leaders and so desperately wants to be respected that he has started his own cult? Interesting.

Before exploring this possibility further, we should look at the definition of what a cult is.

cult (dictionary.com)
1.a particular system of religious worship, esp. with reference to its rites and ceremonies.
2.an instance of great veneration of a person, ideal, or thing, esp. as manifested by a body of admirers: the physical fitness cult.
3.the object of such devotion.
4.a group or sect bound together by veneration of the same thing, person, ideal, etc.
5.Sociology. a group having a sacred ideology and a set of rites centering around their sacred symbols.
6.a religion or sect considered to be false, unorthodox, or extremist, with members often living outside of conventional society under the direction of a charismatic leader.
7.the members of such a religion or sect.
8.any system for treating human sickness that originated by a person usually claiming to have sole insight into the nature of disease, and that employs methods regarded as unorthodox or unscientific.
9.of or pertaining to a cult.
10.of, for, or attracting a small group of devotees: a cult movie.

Any of the above sound familiar at all? In this case, it is my opinion that Kalvin's supposed organization may qualify as a cult.
