A truth which has motivated countless attempts to unite mariage partners, families, faiths, peoples, countries and the world could be written so :
"But he, knowing their thoughts, said unto them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and a house divided against a house falleth." Matt 12:17
There are many other versions to be found in the writ of the sages and religions of the world.
Many rulers have striven to unite their people through many means. Contantine used Chritianity, a phenomenon which was already uniting peoples across his empire and he merely adopted it and changed it to suit his needs.
Taylor Caldwell, in his book "A Pillar of Iron" referenced Cicero as delivering the following address in 42 BC, which provides a little insight into the mechanisms involved in a "divide and conquer" strategy, the antithesis of Matt 12:17.
“A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and he carries his banners openly. But the traitor moves among those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not traitor, he speaks in the accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their garments, and he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of a city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to be feared.” – Cicero, 42 B.C.

These truths are what motivate the power elete to strive to unite Mankind through creating a single government (New World Order) which can crush any ideas which run counter to the aims of the ruling elete.
They use money and debt, media and indoctrination, false news and subtle concepts, inculcated through education to achieve a condition in which mankind will turn to them to deliver the world from the imminent destruction perceived by design through these methods.
They do this with the firm belief that Mankind and Earth cannot survive the unmanaged myriad of differing objectives which ultimately divide the people and effectively ignore the requirements essential for a future for our species and all others.
Aside from the fact that there will always be dissent and division at all upper levels, the primary problem with this approach is that it is Man's approach.
A close look at the teachings of the sacred text reveal that these are the priciples of the religions of the world but that Mankind is not free to choose an own variety but must follow the universal principles already established.
So the Bible teaches in Matt 7:21
"Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven."
Or in other words, my way or the highway.
The book of Mormon iterates the same verse in 3 Nephi 14:25
The Bagavas Gita puts it this way in Chapter 9:34 "Engage your mind always in thinking of Me, offer obeisances and worship Me. Being completely absorbed in Me, surely you will come to Me."
The Quran says it this way :
"Whoever innovates something into this affair of ours which does not belong to it will have it rejected." Source: Sahih Bukhari 2550, Grade: Sahih
The Svethasvatharopanishad says :
"Nature is ephemeral, but the soul is immotal: God rules over both. One who meditated on Him, surrendering to Him, will gradually become one with Him. Such a one becomes free from all the bonds; his sorrows disappear, with birth and death. After the decay of this body, he will give up all glories including the heaven and immerge in the absolute."
This contrast between whatever Man chooses and what the universal requirement is, is an impass which will skuttle our every effort until we choose to surrender our futile will to the will of the eternal.
"Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbour as thyself."

I don't understand your point, graviton. Maybe you're trying to tell us that we should all belong to the One-world religion that Pope Francis is pushing for? Cheers.
The message is that we need to return to the original plan and trust not the arm of flesh.
