as long as people are tolerant and are not trying to kill each other and living peacefully, then i don't have a problem with different religions. of course i hope someday the whole world would come under one belief, humanism, but as long as someone doesn't get on my face, i like the diversity.

That choice is in the hands of the readers. Careful study of the work suggests the author clearly intended to create a series of barriers between the main character and the various secondary characters. The barrier between the Hebrew characters and the main one was generally relaxed somewhat. But, at times the author tightens and relaxes those main tensions in order to further the ebb and flow of the plotline in the first major book of the series.
But the intentions of the author regarding his readership is less clear.

Yes. Religion creates a barrier between the sheep and intelligence.

Yes-- some religions tell you that you aren't allowed to be friends with other people because of their race, religion, orientation, or a bunch of other things. It's a barrier in itself.

No, it is a way of preventing your soul from condemnation, and the eternal torments of Hell. It is not just fire and brimstone in the land of Abaddon, it is also having your body ripped asunder over and over, your worst fears coming true, being eaten by the worm that "never dieth", and much more all at once.

Of course it does. We are told in the Bible that our faith will separate even families......and most Christians have experienced this in some form. If one issue caused a civil war in America, think of all the issues that are argued in the name of religion.

No. To me its been all about building bridges. Im an introvert and one of the great things about church and faith in Christ is that it encourages me to open up and get involved more with ministries and with people.

I do, and I have thought about this a lot. Religion separates, Faith and Spirituality is where it is at Friend.
