What is italian christianity? Do you mean catholicism?
If you do then, no it doesnt have cult like behaviour. Lots of catholics, lutherans, calvinists, hugenots, zwinglinists and anglicans dont even get near cultish. If they wouldnt tell you, at none of their behaviours would you notice which religion if at all they are a part off. Its not an every day talk topic like with the free churches, prespetarians, mega churches, quakers aso in the US.
The church is getting constantly mocked in media. On good german media that had a focus on it is “Das kleine Arschloch” (the little asshole). Media that mocks church, jesus, or anything religiouse is often banned in america.
The catholic church is openly being critisised for their money hording, pedophilia, hiding CSAs and their priests owning CP occasionally.
Churches are empty.
A german joke is:
“How do you get rid of your local priest? Show up to church. Gives him a heart attack from someone suddenly being there”
As compared to Italian Christianity, which totally does not have cult like group rituals.
