What prescriptions does singulartism give on how to live?

>None of those are required of a religion: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Religion

If you want to call the singularity culture a cult or religion, I'm not going to stop you. You can define things however you want. However, from what I see it has little in common with other things I would call cults, and other things I would call religions.

Now if you are honestly consistent, I will applaud you. So I am curious to ask. What are some other cults, aside from the ones I would agree to be cults (Scientology and such). What are some other religions aside from the ones I would agree to be religions (Islam, Christianity, Buddhism and such...).

I'm just basically curious what else you call a cult/religion aside from singularity + the stereotypical stuff.
