Problems unite us, Religion divides us

Problems do unite us but don't religion divide us.

Rather it depends on the person.

People tend to be hostile towards other religions since they are afraid of their own belief systems crumbling down or being questioned about their beliefs.

Also, there is a fear of being a minority. What I am trying to say is that people are afraid of being alone and want someone with the same beliefs and values, this is part of human nature. Other religions create a sense of being a minority and a fear of being dominated. This leads to hostility towards other religions as a defence mechanism.

Many believe that religions were just made to keep humans sane (not stating my personal view) and that religious laws or fear of punishment of sins would reduce inhuman crimes. But people have managed to commit violence in the name of religion that special laws had to be made regarding that matter beats the whole point of having religion.

Whatever your beliefs are you still got to respect others' beliefs.

1. Problem unite us:

Common challenges-when people face common difficulties or challenges such as natural disasters, economic crises or socil injustices, they often come together to find out its solution, in such situation race, nationality and religion take a back seat and people work together with a common goal.

Example- we all are come together to study and want to became an one of the good knowledge we came to this platform this is also common goal to fight with our on actions and thoughts toward the unity.

2. Religion divide us:

Religious differences-religious difference belief can sometimes create divisions, leading to create misunderstanding, conflict or discrimination, different religious may have contrasting views, rituals or ideologies that can cause tension between communities.

Example-religious conflicts such as those between different sects or between followers of different faiths, often lead to social divisions and violences.

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.

As a social being, Humans are designed to live as a community and to create an active environment Religious activities provide spiritual growth and enrichment of whole community as a whole but due to some interior factors and misguidance Religion lost its true purpose and acted as a tool to divide people nowadays. The problem is not with religious principles but people's intolerance to accept that other people also have the same rights as we do. Every religion's roots originated from this idea and it was manipulated in the due course of time. This will lead to a lot of problems.

Each problem leads to imbalance but it also provides an opportunity for individuals to fight against a common cause and help our fellow beings as we did during Chennai floods and storms. Religion gave us a way to overcome such problems and These problems enrich the minds of people to live in harmony and peace.

Topic: problem unite us, religion divides us.

I concur the first statement, but the second statement is not completely correct it's not religion which divides us; sometimes the preachers of the religion spread misinformation or hate against the other religion. If we read any of religious books we get to know humanity is the first religion and our motive should be to spread love, kindness, if we see in present scenario politicians rise the issues based on religion to divide people for their benefits we need to understand that religion is something that meets us to spirituality it is not a topic of war we should respect every religion and learn something new from each Just like in problems we forget that what religion we belong or what religion other or we came together and help each other to come out of that problem same like we should respect everyones personal beliefs.

Hi, everyone I am very greed that you give me this kind of opportunity you say about on the topic that 'Religion divides us, problem unite as'.

Friends as you should know that when we have any problem in our city or state or in our Nation then we unite to each other and help to all to fight against that problem as we take example of Independence of India we came to know that all religious people of all caste come together for the freedom so we can say that Problem unite us.

On other way we have religion divide us this may be wrong because there is enrollment of some politician for their votes to win the election that why they divide people on the basis of religion as we see the politics in Shree Ram Mandir of Ayodhya so this is wrong that religion divides us because I have also friend of different religion.

THANK you to all of you for giving me this kind opportunity.

Hi All,

I am totally agreed with the fact that "Problems unite us while Religion divides us".

Fist let me talk about religion as it is the utmost region because of that there are so much animosity among people of different religions. Had there been no religion in the world there would be only two type of people i.e. Right and wrong. In straight way most of the quarrels are the by-products of religions only. Most of the people who follows their respective religions are damm innocent and very good by hearts but at the same time because of their differences with other religions let them to become monsters.

On otherhand, yes. Diificulties or difficult time. Always teaches us humanities and let us to hold each other hand neglecting our religions, tribes, cats. And that's the beauty of problems as it teaches reality of life and lead us to be more open to everyone.

I believe India is a country where people don't look at religion or any culture when there is a problem. Problems are a situation in which we are all together there in no regional divide. It is not the religion that divides us rather it is the manipulation among the people that has divided people. Religion is a shared belief by a group of people in a divine existence, it has nothing to do with dividing people. It's the people who have created these barriers amongst themselves and for long fought about it. At the end of the day, we're all human and we all have to stand along with each other with any problem. We can look at the example of Covid 19 where the entire world was united by the hope and the spirit to rise above this problem. If they had bought the religious divide in this battle against covid 19 then there wouldn't have been a solution to this problem.

A concept is introduced when people feel that there is a need for it for a proper balance of society. "Religion" is a concept introduced by people living all across the world because it was needed to end the chaos of society. It sets some rules and obligations of every person to lead a peaceful life. But sometimes it can be seen that some people use this sacred word as a tool for their own needs and publicity. They try to show their religion superiority by insulting others religions. So it is not religion that divides us but it is the people with an urge to have power that divides us by manipulative comments.

Secondly, speaking of problems, they are part of life. We are blessed with beautiful relationships such as family, friends, and other close ones so that we can survive the toughest problems that life throws at us. Their very presence gives us strength.

According to my point of view, the main factor that unites us is the problem, while religion is also responsible for that up to some extent. Whenever human beings are in any problem then they are biased more towards the person facing the same problem which creates a bond of belief between them and this ultimately unite them.

But on the other hand when we talk about religion then the first thing come into mind is that certain rules and believes toward god, so the people who following the same set of beliefs and rules are considered in one type of religion, and the people who are fail to follow that rule or disobey them cause dispute between them. And some time political leaders also used religions as a weapon for acquiring more vote.

So the final conclusion is that we should stand together from all the religious group to save humanity and help each other.
