Ok, sekta... Od čega se tačno New Age odvojio, pa ga nazivate sektom?![]()
Ne ulazeci u to da li je neka zajednica sekta ili nije, sad bas listam 'Klajna i Sipku' da vidim ima li nekih promena u odnosu na ono sto znam o etimologiji reci sekta i zapravo sve je po starom: termin 'sekta' dolazi od latinskog sequi, sto znaci, slediti, pratiti, a ne od, kako ti aludiras, latinskog glagola secare (odvojiti, otcepiti, odseci).
A i engleska Vikipedija, uz odgovarajuce reference, slicno pise:
The word sect comes from the Latin noun secta (a feminine form of a variant past participle of the verb sequi, to follow[2]), meaning "(beaten) path", and figuratively a (prescribed) way, mode, or manner, and hence metonymously, a discipline or school of thought as defined by a set of methods and doctrines. The present gamut of meanings of sect has been influenced by confusion with the homonymous (but etymologically unrelated) Latin word secta (the feminine form of the past participle of the verb secare, to cut), as sects were scissions cut away from the mainstream religion.[3] Note that speakers of some other languages use the same word for both the meaning sect and the meaning cult, for example in Italian: setta.
