Randy, denominations might be dividing the church, but it's not as much the name as the doctrine that's doing the dividing, eh?
It's what the denominations represent. Which a lot of them, sadly, represent hypocrisy. Yet, they don't even realize it.

Well, zealousness does indeed get billed as brutality.

Ok, let me put it this way:
Zealousness does get misconstrued as brutality at times.

Yeah I get'cha. But having division because of doctrine is okay, as long as people aren't being horrid and judgemental. And I don't think hypocrisy is only from a couple denominations, I think it can be in all of them! We are fallible people. If there were no denominational guidelines, there would be mixture, and then there's a good chance that we'd all turn lukewarm. And from what God has said on the matter, lukewarmess is a very scary thing.

I had no intention of trying to say that brutality and zealousness is the same.
All that I tried to say was that people do indeed get zealousness confused with brutality.
