Errors and redundancy
editThis article is totally unsourced. One glaring error is Osho Movement, listed as having been founded in 1989. Many movements do not have a precise date of founding. The overall list duplicates List of New Religious Movements, and there's no clear reason for sorting the list by date (as opposed to location, etc). That's why I prodded it.
