Some modern values, when applied universally, facilitate division. Churches reject these values and so have better natural survival rates. Those values are free inquiry and inclusion. In churches, there are large sets of beliefs that are axiomatic. If you don't believe them, you're not allowed in. If you openly question them, you are expelled.
You can arrange a secular org around any set of beliefs you want, but it's accepted what might serve the needs of the group could change, and at any rate you have a right to question it. Questioning is easier, and the inclusionary imperative is stronger.
