Now that some of you have answered my first post about it (thank you all btw and I hope to hear more opinions) I have more questions....
What exactly are the differences between the denominations?
Why is there animosity among some denominations within the Christian religion?
Christianity is really big on "spreading the word" which is fine BUT where do YOU personally feel the line should be drawn? do you feel that there are limits as to how far you should go or push ppl etc?

Yes I get really quite annoyed when people tr to force their beliefs on me as I have mine. I politely tell them that there is no need to get pushy and sometimes downright nasty as to me they are showing a bad example of tolerance for all religions and denominations of such.

The differences between denominations are basically 'the way they walk to (what is ultimately) the same goal.'
The animosity arises when some people think that some denominations' doctrines take their walk too far past the goal to arrive the way they want to.
I personally think we shouldn't spread the word by 'repeating our favorite parts of it to unbelievers,' but rather by 'meditating over ALL OF IT (parts we like AND parts we don't) and letting its wisdom shine in our lives.'
