| Oct 3, 2018 at 22:11 | comment | added | Christian Geiselmann | There is a religious group in China (and spreading out to everywhere in the world including the West) called Falung Gong (other names are in use, too) that is using practitioners as the term for their followers (what other religions would call their believers, or their faithful or whatever). But then, they insist that they aren't a religion. Well, they are, of course. But the word practitioner is used inflationally whereever they appear. | |
