Reiki you've explained it well. My grandfather was a reverend and died when he was 95 - in Brooklyn there are churches on every block (some have 2 or 3)-so I grew up hearing about all these stories. There is an old saying(well the old people around me used to say this)-differences in religion divides churches to multiply congregations....which means if you look at the history of different churches you will find that many congregations originally started at the same church under one leader and over time/and various issues-(over the leader/doctrines/etc.) congregations divided to become two different churches. However if you ask many members today they would have no idea that their church was EVER associated with another because of the vastly different interpretations.
