This list of new religious movements (NRMs) lists groups identified as new religious movements by scholars of religion.

Background

A new religious movement (NRM) is an intentional community, or ethical, spiritual, or philosophical group of recent origin. NRMs may be novel in origin or they may be part of a wider religion, such as Christianity, Hinduism, or Buddhism in which case they will be distinct from pre-existing denominations. Scholars studying the sociology of religion have almost unanimously adopted this term as a neutral alternative to the word "cult". They continue to try to reach agreement on definitions and boundaries.[1]
