Because people interpret things differently and want to believe it (what they believe) their way.

For example: Even when Paul the Apostle was still alive and preaching the word, he had to deal with this very problem.

Some said they were followers of Jesus, some said Paul, etc. He tried to explain there should be no confusion about this, he was not crucified for their sins. That the church should not become divided like this. Today, some people believe in the gifts of the Holy Spirit others do not, and it goes on and on.

I am sure this is what happen in many religions.

Division within a religion can occur due to various reasons such as differences in interpretation of religious texts, disagreements on doctrine or practices, cultural influences, historical events, and individual interpretations of spirituality and faith. These divisions can lead to the formation of different sects, denominations, or branches within a religion.

I believe that there are many divisions of a certain religion because people have just came up with the same basic story and just altered it to what they believe in. Then somehow other people began believing in it as well and it grew.
