Christians have always been split. The Jesus Mystery Cult spread around the Mediterranean, and each cult centre had its own ways. For example we have 55 different gospels left today, so there must have been hundreds, ie each centre had its own version as well as some of the more popular ones. There was obvious dissent if you believe the account of Acts and the Pauline letters. Paul was beset by competitors bearing different versions (Appollos of Alexandria was his pet hate, so he must have been good), and in his letters he abjectly begs the recipients to follow his line, and calls his competitors who came after him 'dogs'. Yes, it was bitterly split from the beginning.

Roman Catholic AnswerThe only split possible for Christians is to "split" into heresy, apostasy, or schism. In the first case, they deny some aspect of the faith such as protestants, in the second case, they deny the faith entirely, such as modern pagans; and in the third case, they deny the supremacy of Peter, such as the Orthodox.

The Prophet Mohammed grew up in a cosmopolitan society where Jews, Christians and Pagans were all present. Mohammed's prophesy includes significant material the Jews and Christians recognize from their traditions, including the story of Abraham and the near sacrifice of his son.
