A religious group claiming their doctrine is undisputed fact sounds like divine arrogance on their part.

If your group has a doctrine and someone within it wants to branch off, the doctrine should not change if based on facts.

If it does that means that something went wrong and it brings the validity of the doctrines into question.

Who would humble themselves and admit they were wrong?

Or the conundrum of one branch faith against another branch of faith rooted from the same faith.

With religion you also have influence, land, and money added into the equation.

Establishing a consensus seems very complicated at this point.
