A quote from Pope Francis:
“Discord between Christians is the greatest obstacle to evangelization. It favors the development of groups that exploit poverty and credulity to propose easy but illusory problems to the problems faced by the people. In a world afflicted by many ethnic, political and religious conflicts, communities must be ‘authentically fraternal and reconciled’ for their witness to be ‘luminous and attractive.’ God will give us the grace, if we know how to receive it, to render unity greater than conflict.”
-- Address to the bishops of the Episcopal Conference of Guinea, March 24, 2014
