Hold your horses there sharpshooter. One of the most pernicious and varied disagreements between sects is the issue of christology, and for a cult collective named "christianity"..... that would seem to be quite a disagreement.
Yall didn't start "agreeing" with each other until living memory, as a part of a political paradigm meant to stop the bleeding of authority. The various sectarian groups finally realized, after 300 years or so of infighting...that it was causing people to lose confidence in their ability to make normative proclamations at a broad social level, that it had a negative effect on their relevance, and perhaps more importantly..that it cost them members and thus resources. Better late than never, I guess.
