Should you associate urself with any religious denomination because anything that divides will divide further?

Question

Positive Actions and Love carry has no boundries. But at the same time we are social creatures so we need to be part of a group too. The main purpose of all the religions was to create unity but lack of tolerance and compassion seems to be prevailent now. So how can we eleviate our thinking and rise above the religious bounds that make us narrow-minded and full of ego making us believe we are the Chosen Ones. What are the steps that you can suggest to clear our minds and see the human being, a part of ourself in all?

Answer 3

It is natural to flock to people with similar views and beliefs. Joining a sect or denomination fills a social need.

Answer 4

It's really just a question of community. And I think you attach too much importance to so-called "divisions". In my Father's house there are many mansions.

Answer 5

"I have not come to bring peace, but a sword." - Jesus Christ.

There can be no unity between love and hate, between truth and lies, between light and darkness.
Following God's word automatically creates enemies in Satan's followers.

Which way one goes might depend on whether people (self included) are willing to change to God's way.

Answer 7

"Religion seperates and segregates; spirituality enlightens, is tolerant, and unites." ...easy
