Explanation:

1- A cult is an organization, usually religious, that departs from traditional or official doctrines and takes a secret nature for those who do not belong to it.

2- Cynicism is a philosophical doctrine founded by Antisthenes in the 5th century BC, which is characterized by the rejection of social conventions and morality commonly admitted.

3- A dynasty is a series of rulers of one or different States, related to each other, or all from the same family; especially in monarchies. Although the most usual is that hereditary succession within a dynasty occurs by filiation (from father to son), sometimes occurs by adoption (even among adults), notably in the case of the Roman Empire.

4- Skepticism is generally any attitude of doubt towards knowledge, be it facts, opinions or beliefs declared as facts, or doubts about claims that are taken by assumptions elsewhere.

5- Syncretism, in cultural anthropology and religion, is an attempt to reconcile different doctrines. It is commonly understood that these unions do not have a substantial coherence. It is also used in reference to culture or religion to highlight its character of fusion and assimilation of different elements.
