What is italian christianity? Do you mean catholicism?
If you do then, no it doesnt have cult like behaviour. Lots of catholics, lutherans, calvinists, hugenots, zwinglinists and anglicans dont even get near cultish. If they wouldnt tell you, at none of their behaviours would you notice which religion if at all they are a part off. Its not an every day talk topic like with the free churches, prespetarians, mega churches, quakers aso in the US.
The church is getting constantly mocked in media. On good german media that had a focus on it is “Das kleine Arschloch” (the little asshole). Media that mocks church, jesus, or anything religiouse is often banned in america.
The catholic church is openly being critisised for their money hording, pedophilia, hiding CSAs and their priests owning CP occasionally.
Churches are empty.
A german joke is:
“How do you get rid of your local priest? Show up to church. Gives him a heart attack from someone suddenly being there”
The intolerance of narrow monotheism is written in letters of blood across the history of man from the time when first the tribes of Israel burst into the land of Canaan. The worshippers of the one jealous God are egged on to aggressive wars against people of alien [beliefs and cultures]. They invoke divine sanction for the cruelties inflicted on the conquered. The spirit of old Israel is inherited by Christianity and Islam, and it might not be unreasonable to suggest that it would have been better for Western civilization if Greece had moulded it on this question rather than Palestine."
American Christianity is weird to me. Cult like group rituals and yet it’s my fault for noticing.
As compared to Italian Christianity, which totally does not have cult like group rituals.

it IS weird, and mostly heretical.
What isn’t?
Eastern Orthodoxy

that’s not really relevant to what is and is not heretical.
It very much is.
You’re pretending like your religion isn’t hateful, stupid and full of contradictions.
It is.
I don’t care that you’re trolling.
