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.

I agree with the fact that religion divides us. It is in human nature to feel insecure about themselves, and their community. This insecurity leads the person to think that their community is in minority and the people adhering to other religions may impact their beliefs and cultures and thus knowingly or unknowingly religion tends to divide us. Whereas in case of any problem, different people come on board to provide their creative solutions to the problem and this coming together on a single stage leads to unity.

The respective statement can be interpreted in various ways, but it is not necessary for people to unify or split in both situations. In my opinion, it is the heart that matters.
For example, India is a country with a diverse culture, and we celebrate each and every religious festival, which unites our hearts in joy. The same can be understood in the case of problems or suffering, if we talk about globally then everyone has taken up the challenge to unite everyone's efforts for a sustainable future.
Although, if viewed from a different perspective then the entire situation could vary. As previously stated that it all depends on the heart of people or their genuine love and responsibility towards each other.

I agree with the statement "problem unites us "but not the statement religion divides us. Any religion teaches us how to behave with others how to live with others, and most importantly how to respect other religions. So I think that Religion doesn't divide us.
And if we see the First statement that That problem unites us let's take the example of our family if any big problem is there then our family comes with unite. And find a solution for that. So, I conclude that " Problems unite us, but not the Religion divides us. ".

Hi Everyone,
Today's topic is Problems unite us, Religion divides us.
In my opinion, the statement problems unite us Religion divides us highlights a very real aspect of human society when people face common challenges like natural disasters health crisis or national emergencies they often come together forgetting the differences in such moments humanity takes the front seat and religion caste of background becomes secondary we have seen this unity in situations like pandemics floods and social movements however religion which should be a source of peace and moral guidance unfortunately sometimes becomes a reason for division misinterpretation political misuse and lack of understanding often lead to conflicts between communities but I believe the real issue isn't religion itself but how it is used or manipulated if people focused on the core values that most religions share kindness compassion and respect then religion can actually unite us not divide us survival it is true that problems often remind us of our shared humanity we must also learn to rise above religious divides even when things are peaceful in the end it's not the religion but the mindset that needs to evolve.

To some extent, it is the harsh reality. Whenever we face problem especially if there are some disputes or differences from some other countries we stand united which is actually a good thing but where our unity vanishes while dealing with problems within our country.
Whenever some problems arise we don't give attention to that what was the reason behind it, why this happened what we want to know first is religion of that person or group due to which problem arose. And then we start blaming that oh he or they did so because he is from this religion and his religion does not teaches equality and respect or anything else.
This is very illogical thinking from people's side. How can anyone relate anyone's wrongdoing with his religion? No religion wants its follower to be rude or bad or commit a sin. Every religion has the same idea, all are same it's only the people who have created all difference.
Hence in order to maintain tranquillity and peace in our country and world, we must not fight in name of religion, we must stand together and face all problems unitedly.

According to me.
Religion is one of most problem to divided humanity. Every person believes to God and God says to live unit and any problem face to together. I think God is only one. Human is divided for own purpose.

So, I agree with this topic.
We have seen that during covid pandemic people from different religions helped everyone they can irrespective of their religion. They didn't see whether the person was of their own religion or not. This literally shows problems do unite us.
Religion divides us knowingly or unknowingly. In a very recent incident, we have seen how some Muslim people got beaten up because of entering Dandia night during Navratra. So somehow religion became the reason for that incident.

Hello everyone.
This is Barsha. I don't agree that religious divide us. Every religion have its own prosperctive even if in holy books there is clearly mentioned that all gods are same so problems unite us is true but religious does not divide us. However certain unsocialised people by the name of dharma different bad works done but it is not considerable.

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.
