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.

Religion does not always divide us in a bad way. Instead, it gives us different ways to see the world, celebrate life, and connect with something greater than ourselves. People follow different religions, but all teach values like love, kindness, and peace.

These differences can help us learn from one another and grow together. Just like different flowers in a garden, different religions add beauty and meaning to our shared world. So, religion can unite us through respect, not divide us.

I would like to share my thoughts on the topic is "Problems unite us-religion divide us".

I strongly believe that problems unite us, because in many situations, people come together to help each other even people from different religions also, like in pandemic situations everyone helps each other by sharing food, water, shelter and also In recent Pahalgam attack, one of the Muslim guy come forward to help Hindus with his wholehearted. But unfortunately, he left us. So, I believe that problems unite any religion.

In my perspective, I would completely agree with the 1st statement problem unite us, but I can partially agree with the idea that religion divide us. There were lot of situations from pre independence to post independence, where problem united people such as farmers protest against farm bills, non-cooperative movement against British rule. However there is dual behaviour when it comes to religion, It may unite or divide. It is because of some people who wants to dominate through religion and rumor false claims regarding religion beliefs creating chaotic situations such as riots in west bengal where hindus were attacked and looted. Moreover, there were few situations where people from different religion come forward and stay untied ex. Pahalgham attack where muslims and hindus condemned the attack and stood against it and this same incident also divided people in the name of religion by blaming muslims for the terror attack.

To summarize the topic, I can say that at the time od crisis and scarcity people come and act collectively, however that s different scenario when it comes to religion, which has the potential to unite and also divide people.

Hi everyone,

I want to share my opinion on the topic "Problems unite us, Religion divides us" and I agree with the first half of the statement that is "Problem unite us" as our history itself is an evident to it, for instance "India’s first war of independence- 1857" and so on. But when it comes to the second half of the statement "Religion divides us" I disagree with it.

As, per my view, Religion is something which provide hope, motivation and teaches us to perform righteous deeds in any situations. It also sometimes provides a person's insight. But due some people's selfishness or overshadowing some incident or some other motives, they create friction between community which are the actual reason for disputes between community's disputes.

In conclusion, I wanted to address that it's not religion which is dividing us but the people with their selfish desire to gain anything irrespective of its consequence.

In my opinion, Religion distinguishes people but not their problems. As an Indian, there is no division between the rules, facilities, availability and decisions.

Everyone is free to communicate and judge.

Religion only differentiate between culture, devotion and beliefs.

@All.

Problems and Religion are tools of unification only if they are in the right hands, which according to me is the same with all the innovation and tools.

The Problem is an opportunity for innovation and if it concerns the public at large, they come together and try to add solutions irrespective of religion.

In my opinion, 'problem and religion' both are totally dependent on each other.

For ex: The politicians rises the religious matters on which the people divided to protect their religions. Which creates problems. In this situation the problem divides the the people into religion.

Problems unite us through poverty, climate change and social injustice whereas religion divides us by creating a barrier, fostering exclusive and perpetuating stereotypes.
To overcome all these challenges we must focus on shared values, practice empathy and understanding and celebrate diversity.

I agree with the topic "Problems unite us, Religion divides us".

The problem unites us.

When people face a problem, the only thing they search for is the solution to get out of that problem or situation.

For example, if a person is met with an accident and needs blood immediately then he will be required with the matching blood group but not whether the donor is from which religion. If he is thinking of religion or other then he will be at great risk.

In the same way, during covid also everyone came together irrespective of one's religion.

Religion divides us.

Religion divides because of different beliefs and thoughts. They might be in contrast to each other's beliefs which can raise differences when there is no understanding.
