One reason is that we are divided by history. We are so divided into sects that all outsiders see is that we are divided. Go to Jerusalem and one sees squabbling over the Church of the Holy Sepulcher, and evangelicals even found their own site to claim as the burial site.

.....Or even around Advent/Christmas seasons when it is focused on the Church of the Nativity in Bethelehiem and there is seen from time to time fights over WHO gets to sweep what part of the floor before the big Christmas liturgies.

But then again, at the Church of the Nativity, the fights there tend to take place among the Orthodox just before their Christmas. The Catholics have a seperate chapel.
