I completely agree with the point. "Problems unite us, Religion divides us". I could see most of them are totally against the point 'Religion divides us'.

Although every religion joined together to get rid of the British we missed the point that only because of our separation through religion made it easy for the British to invade us. Still, we can sense the religious differences in many rural and undeveloped areas. Many people are being killed in the name of religious prestige. It's a bitter truth that religious differences are still placed in our country.

Hello everyone, Good Afternoon I am Vaibhav.

I would like to discuss on interesting topic "Problems unite us, Religion divides us".

I think it is true, when people face a common issue so they don't see religion in between. They come together and unite for issue fight for the issue.

The statement digs into the 2 dimensions of human nature.

We humans have a weird connection between us. We are born to love. Whenever there is any crisis, any issue or disaster, we consider this a collective problem. We often help strangers. This is where the diversity fades away and humanity takes the front seat.

But when we let religion enter the conversation, there is a sudden shift from collective thinking to individual identity. We start taking an attack on belief as an attack to personal identity. So, yes, Religion comes and creates a partition in humanity. But this is not fully correct. If every religion is understood and studied properly while because after all we are all children of god, then no one can divide us. Instead, we all will bloom together like different flowers in God's garden.

Yeah, I totally agree with this sentence that problems which are related to society unite us and religious factors divide us, and this is the point we should understand as an Indian citizen.

As citizens of this developing country, we should understand that we are the generation that can see things practically and allow a practical approach to solve issues instead of making unnecessary conflicts over unnecessary issues, which are totally irrelevant to mainstream topics, and that would be a bad sign to us. Hence, it is our responsibility to see things with respect to the nation's development and skip other irrelevant issues.

Hello, I am Disha.

Thank you for the opportunity to speak about an entirely true topic, and I completely agree.

I would like to agree on this topic by throwing some light on the recent protest at Delhi, Jantar Mantar, that united the whole student community together irrespective of any religion, caste and creed, etc demanding fairness in various examinations and accountability that the government should hold for the youth of our country. This incident strongly supports the first half of the statement that "Problems Unite Us".

Regarding the latter one, I think it is not religion or religious practices that separate us, but the people who sometimes forget that the relationship we all human beings hold among each other, and that is above any religion, is humanity. Everyone is free to follow any religion in this country, and it's the choice of every individual, but it should not be at the cost of disrespecting or discriminating against others for their own choices of following any religion.

So, I agree that various adverse situations unite us, but not truly believe that only the religion that divides us.

Hi guys,

I am Akash Nigam and I think this is life biggest truth. As we all know in any type of problem weather it is related to politics or natural catastrophe humanity will stand together face it as a united world, which is actually the work of the religion to make the world where people live in peace and unity. As I think what if we make the problem of our new religion and one who causes this problem will become our god because as of now in every religion god is just like art that is perfected by human day by day which is not gonna cause any good.

Hello everyone,

I agree with the statement, problems unite us while religion divides us. I would say covid 19 as the best example. Doctors and Nurses all over the world helped patients regardless of their religion.

Many people and organisations helped the poor with groceries, etc regardless of their religion. Thus, problems unite us.

Religion is a set of belief systems that varies from person to person belief and it expands (evolves) due to one's belief. Until these beliefs exist conflict is inevitable. However, if persons in religion realize that these beliefs are set by assumptions, religion is not a true representation of beliefs it should be understood by every human being then it leads to mitigating conflict.

And some fundamental human rights (equal justice, freedom, right to live anywhere, right to speak, etc), and some common problems like environmental issues will bring unite use. These fundamental issues also occur due to technological development and energy displacement in nature this problem always will exist throughout human life hence, it drives us to be united to fight against these common problems.

Problems unite us and religion divides, that's true that problems unite us in all problems there are friends, family and in natural disasters we all help each other and if we talk about religion gives us strength and teaches us how we can handle the situation, facing problems by following our religious idol god we all are equal only we need to respect each other religious it's just a govt who wants us to divide and rule in the name of religion.

Yes, I agree with this testimony that the problem unites us because in problem we know to each other who is helping us and we fight if we will not unite and not help each other we all can not be survive. We can see in covid situation, war like situation etc.

In problem we get chance to know one another. But religion divides thats not like this teaches us to be polite humble and care each other and to show humanity but politics and some hatred person make this topic trending.
