					<description>Hello:

I agree with you Alan.  Much of it is more evidence of past division than current.  The evangelical community seems to be moving closer and closer together on a lot of issues.

If we can get passed the issues that divide us in the Restoration Movement, I think we will have a much better chance of promoting the truths that are obvious to us but aren't obvious enough to the rest of the conservative churches out there such as the importance of baptism and the observance of the Lord's Supper.

					<description>Hi TechSun,

I guess you could say the existence of denominations is evidence of division that occurred sometime in the past. My impression is that the heated rhetoric between denominations has cooled substantially compared to 100, 200, or more years ago.  I don't think the same thing could be said about the RM.  Of course those are just my impressions.

					<description>Isn't the existence of denominations divisive?  If you have differences, leave and start a denomination, its ok, but if you stay and have differences you contribute to divisiveness?</description>
