Hi I am Deepika.

It is true that problems unite us because when problem arise we all come together and fight with the problems. I think first priority should be for humanity because we are humans. When we take birth we are human and we get the name of religion later on.

Religion never divides us because we are living in a society where all people of different religions are are living. We take help when we need and we give help also. So I don't think religion divide us because I have many friends of different religions and all are same for me. We only see the behavior and nature of person, not religion.

It is politics which divide us. Because the politicians use the people for their own benefits. They always see their benefits, not about the country. If they get something by making fights between two religion's people they can do anything. Because of the fight between the political parties they use common people. It makes the politics dirty and also the reason of fighting between religion. They only try to use the emotion of the people for their own purpose.

So I think problem and religion both unite us. It is only the dirty politics which trying to divide people in the name of religion.

Thank you.

I can't agree with this statement " Problems unite us, Religion divides us". We can't understand the religion. How many of us read and clear understanding of any religious scriptures? Without reading, we can't make any judgement about religion. Today's generation only remembers the name of religion and misinterpret religion using their own perception. Politics use religion as a tool to divide us and take advantage of vote bank politics. We have an only imagination about religion means follow the only dress code or certain rituals. That's not all. Religion exists for enlightenment and peace. Without these two things we can't solve any problem in the world.

Hi.

Problems unite us is true and it shows the humanity is alive inside us. People come forward to help each other and at that time religion is not considered. At the need of time its our unity which gives help and strength to the needy.

Religion is not for dividing, its a way of living and each and every religion should be respected. In all the religious books we learn the same lesson and it teaches us that we all are child of one god and therefore we should never discriminate on basis of religion.

My opinon about the topic is, that it's never a religion that divides us but it is the mentality and thinking that divides us religious title our country as a nation with diversity in peoples faith and culture customs and traditions which distinguish us from any other nation in the world. Speaking about problems when it occurs it's the humanity within us which makes us forget that people in need belong to which religion or given the country.

Hi.

According to me, when problem comes on mankind the whole mankind units to find out a solution of a particular problem. But when a problem arises relating to a religion at that time each religion stand to protect their own religion.

For instance, in flood people forget their religion and help each other. But on the matter of prevention of cow slathering Hindu and Muslims stands adversely.

Yes, it's true that problems unite us and religion divides us.

The better example of it is the massive floods of Kerala. There, people belonging to Muslims had attended their Eid namaz in a temple and Hindus had slept in Madarsa for few days.

So, I can conclude that if any problem came then only our eyes will be opened and become blind while in daily life.

Hello everyone, according to me, problem unites us but religion divides us is completely wrong. Lets take the incident of Pulwama attack where 44 soldiers has been killed by Jaish e Mohammed who was Muslim but inspite of that Indian Muslim are also against him and protesting Pakistan they said they are Indian first and all Hindu Muslim come together and they pray for the families who were lost their husband, son, brother in Pulwama attack.

This is one of the best topics for a group discussion.

Generally, a religion is important for every individual in the aspect of worshipping their own gods. This will pave way for faith and confidence in every individual. But this religion should be concerned only to an individual's personal feelings. If we want to expose this to the world, then the problem of superiority arises between the people.

The best example for the unity of the religions is the INDIAN army. In the border, there is no religion and language barriers, they all fight for the country.

Yes, definitely problems unite us. But religion divides us as there are many clashes on religious issues between community like ram mandir and babri masjid case, but when it comes to national issues like women empowerment and safety and provision of clean drinking water and electricity everywhere, then everyone no matter belonging to which religion, will come up and take proper necessary actions. And most important political parties are including communal issues like ram mandir case in their propaganda to gain votes of particular sect or community which shows that the country is divided by religion.

Yes, I accept to the statement that problem unites us and religion divide us. Peoples are separated by religions. Those days people so much sticky to their religion. So they do not talk to other religious people. But nowadays youths of the nation understood that there is no religion among the people. All people have the same blood but differ in religion that is not a matter. According to Mahakavi Bharathiyar, there is no religion among people. Youth understood this very well. In work places, colleges, school etc, they talk and maintain friendship to everyone. Friendship are not based on caste or religion. All are same. Problems unite us, Example like, in Jallikattu protest everyone joined their hands together, all Muslim, Hindu, Christian, Islam etc joined hands together. That showed their uniformity. But old people are addicted to religion, even in love marriages also caste plays a major role. Love marriages must be encouraged. Every people has their own wish to marry the person he/she loves. With parents support, they can lead a happy married life. Caste, religion is not their people. All are same. Thank you.
