I wonder how this works, socially, how it works in nations, spiritually, legally?

Let's say you open up a group, maybe shop or maybe its a hippie funky hall where people read poetry, dance and play some guitar and drum and read a song

It becomes party of a community

but legally
Do you have to let everyone in?

Even if they are trouble and looking to cause problems?

What if the Landlord believes islam is a cult or even Satanic? I do wonder sometimes if islam is a death cult, like Aum Shinrikyo, Jim Jones, some scammer Hindu India cult involved in criminality or the Koresh cult or the Order of the Solar Temple .... what makes a difference between 'cult' and mainstream.... is it only the number of followers?

Do you close the group like a yatch, golf club and call it members only

What if you more or less know, you feel like a certain group or faction is going to be a massive problem? You got guys like Aum Shinrikyo, if some Neo pagan guys started robbing and attacking people and praying to some Aztec pyramid god would it be a dangerous cult? The islamists are they a cult ... sometimes reading history the difference between religion and cult blurs, its a very fine line. Is most religion just a cult which became part of the mainstream and got political representation? Would some cults for example be incompatible with Democracy, Western Civilisation or the US Constitution?
