At the same time that Pythagoras was working out his theorem for a right angle triangle he created a religious cult known as the Pythagoreans
It was a religous cult founded by Pythagoras that thought everything depended on numbers, and math. They were divided into two groups, the mathematikoi and the akousmatikoi.
Pythagoras faced several failures throughout his life, including his inability to prove the irrationality of the square root of 2, which contradicted his belief in the perfection of mathematics. Additionally, his strict and secretive cult-like community led to internal conflicts and eventual dissolution of the Pythagorean society after his death. Pythagoras also failed in his political ambitions in Croton, where his followers were eventually overthrown and he had to flee for his life.
Pythagoras's group, often referred to as the Pythagorean Brotherhood, was described as cult-like due to its secretive nature, strict rules, and the strong sense of community among its members. Followers adhered to a lifestyle that included dietary restrictions, communal living, and rigorous philosophical and mathematical study, fostering an atmosphere of loyalty and exclusivity. Additionally, their beliefs about the mystical significance of numbers and the cosmos created a dogmatic framework that resembled religious devotion, further contributing to the cult-like perception.
I don't think Odd Future is an actual cult, but they seem to have gained a cult-like following; wouldn't classify them as a cult, still.
Pythagoras became famous for proving that Pythagoras' theorem was correct, making other famous Greeks like Plato and Aristotle inspired to be a mathematician.
