Scripture Sunday 2 Nephi 26:28

No, I'm not naive. There are groups and cliques present in all churches and the LDS church is no different. Sadly, wherever there are humans gathering, there will be factions and groups. Part of our fallen condition is to seek out people who we think are like us, and sometimes we are very superficial when we are doing so. However there are several passages in the Book of Mormon that caution us about splitting up our church. 

"Behold I say unto you, Nay, but all men are privileged the one like unto the other and none are forbidden." I love this passage. Not only does it equalize all of us in the eyes of God, but it should equalize all of us in the eyes of the church. From the prophet to the newest member in church, spiritually and in the view of the Almighty all of us are the same.
