Religion is something that has bridged humanities interactions stretching from some of our first records of human life all the way to the present day. It has been a way that people have united to group and classify themselves for a common good. But religious belief has not just been responsible for the bringing together of societies and nations. It has also taken the role as a divider. Varying belief systems stretching across lands has been a source of conflict. Physical boundaries have been drawn, social structures have been set, and even violent conflicts have occurred; all in the name of god.
