I think you wanted him to reaffirm to you that Mormonism is a cult and he wasn't willing to do that. That is okay. A lot of folks on here classify it as a cult and that helps them recover.
When all facts are put on the table it is a lot harder to definitively say. Not everybody, even experts, agree on the status of Mormonism. If you want to feel like it is a cult then stay here for reassurance because you might not find it guaranteed anywhere else.
You should send him a link to
http://packham.n4m.org/cult.htmI have some objections to many of the arguments Packham makes, but by far it is the most comprehensive and academically sound explanation as to why Mormonism is a cult. I would be interested to hear your professor's take on it.
