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.

Hai diz iz Devender Nayak. !

Here everyone knows that India is a land of "Unity in diversity". In India, we have one of the major problems is religion based discrimination especially in Hindus and Muslims, and racism between South Indians and North Indians. Because practically we are watching in our current society that people are still following untouchability in rural areas as well as few urban regions also, in fact easily we can find this kind of people in our contemporary society. At the conclusion, what I want to say is that fundamentally stop racisms, untouchability superstitions and discriminations automatically the unity comes true.

Yes, I do agree with this. In case of India, it is true that we as religious parties hate each other. We would throw taunts at each others try to demean each others and few even gets comative in nature due to these religious differences. In India the major differencein religious parties is between the hindus and the muslims. Howver you would find in the time of sports like cricket match both will support India, be it India vs Pakistan. Also, in time of surgical strikes muslims in our country were against Pakistan`s terrorist activities. These are the times when religious groups in India actually unite and talk on behalf of others. Thank you.

TRUE. As far as the east is from the west or Heaven is from hell. That's the division.

We are all living on earth now, and making the decision of where we want to spend eternity.

Neither of us is the result of a "big bang" and neither of us has Created one thing. But more real than the fact that we are HERE now. We have Created Beings and will BE, forever, somewhere (and don't confuse the physical body with WHO we truly ARE. ).

Everyone has "religion". It's WHO or what you BELIEVE/TRUST. That's your "religion. Everybody is "religious". So to say that religion divides is like saying your left hand and your right hand are "divided".

In my point of view, unity comes when a problem originates that affects people commonly. We have many events that happened recently the COVID-19, flood. Etc. But if someone has to face a problem that affects only that particular one no one comes and helps you to overcome it. So in that situation, we have to unite over mind, body, . Etc to jump over from it.

As everyone said, Religion is not a reason for the division of people. How we have to see religion is how we wear dresses, we wear those as per our wish and the purpose and use of all dresses are the same, The real aim of religion is building discipline, ethics, Etc.

Hi, This is Dhananjay.

I am totally agree with this statement. That problem unites us and religion divide us. We can take the current example of the rape and murder case of ASIFA. As we all know that, it's a case in which a girl child whose religion is Muslim, had been raped and murdered. In this situation, we can see that from all over India, people from different religion stand together for justice, although Asifa case is still pending. The gather ness shows us that maybe we are from different religion, but when it comes to RIGHT/JUSTICE, we have to fight together. May God give right justice to ASIFA.

Hi everyone. Here I agree with the point, Problems always unite us. Whenever we have problems whether it is related to the social issue or personal cause everybody is ready to help. Take the case of any disaster or any tsunami case. Everybody was ready to help them and to collect funds for them. Whenever there is problem everybody in spite of caste religion come together to help others. In Nirbhya's case, each and every person were prayed and tried to help her family. Religion case is secondary things humanity comes first. There are many who start violence at the point of religion. Everything is one.

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.

Problems are the same for all the people of various Religions, all top of it every single person have their own method to deal with the problems. I must say we shouldn't see a person by their religion, culture, race, or background. We must have to understand the human being nature with consciousness. Religion may be differ from each other but we cannot denied the existence of human being is the same. We must have to find out the truth of our existence rather than to follow our religious gurus/ self-styled icons. We are just more of dust and need to understand and respect ones culture and religion.

Hello Everyone,

Yes, I agree with this statement that "Problems unite us" But don't with statement "Religion divides us". Because, Religion teach us how to treat others, how to live, how to behave, how to speak in a positive way. So, Religion is not a problem, the main problem is negative people who are spreading negative things to the world and seeing everything as a religious issue which is impact other people who are not the part of negative things.

So, It's everyone's responsibility to understand the value of different religions which can built more unity and less fights.

Thank you!
