dragonwriter put it very well in terms of religion. Plus, I'm quite sure people of differing religions (even devote ones) can become friends. I do let people choose an age group and a category ('professional', 'creative', or 'blue collar') so you can be placed in a group of your peers. But I think having diversity in groups is very useful, and I'd hate to exacerbate social segregation. Krewe is not a Tinder or Match.com marketed for making friends. It's doesn't work anything like that, because making friends is not like finding dates. I think what makes churches, as well as stuff like schools, sports teams, fraternities, community service organizations, etc, so great at helping people form lasting, meaningful friendships and relationships (and why people love them so much) is that they really are just a group of people getting together often. You don't need to find the absolute best or most compatible people for you--you get to have multiple friends of varying closeness after all. You just need to have access to people who you can see frequently, build connections with, become involved in each other's lives, and create a culture of new, shared interests, inside jokes, traditions, etc. It's really how human society has worked since its very inception.
