Quote by Wendell Phillips

Difference of religion breeds more quarrels than difference of politics.

Difference of religion breeds more quarrels than difference

Summary

This quote suggests that the divisions created by religious differences often lead to more conflicts and disputes than differences in political beliefs. It implies that while political disagreements can still be contentious, the deep-seated nature of religious convictions can fuel even more intense disagreements, potentially resulting in a greater number of quarrels. This observation may indicate the deeply ingrained and emotional nature of religious beliefs that can sometimes contribute to heightened tensions and divisions among individuals and societies.
