Sigh. We humans are funny and stupid creatures. How does God put up with us? Consider this case. While cleaning the Church of the Nativity in Bethlehem (a church supposedly built over the stable where Jesus of Nazareth was born), Greek Orthodox and Armenian priests brawled over who got the right to clean what space. The church is apparently shared by many different Christian denominations/sects who jealously guard their part of the building.
What is worse, apparently this is not the first time this has happened. How can we expect people to see the Love of Christ if we are getting into fist-fights with each other? (For the record, I know I commit far worse sins for far worse reasons. Not putting myself above these people, but noting it as an example of how foolish we all are.)
