I think it's pretty safe to say that most religious divisions are "political", no matter which religion we're speaking of - political in that they are usually about power plays and the right to be the person or group directing others in the way they think they should go.

BH can you tell us about the Ismaili Muslims? How are their beliefs similar or different from yours?

I really do not know much about them to be honest, just that they are one of the Shia. Here is a link to wikipedia containing an article about them:

There is a web discussion board called ShiaChat you could register on and ask questions if you like.
