Sects tend to be more exclusive and rigid in their beliefs and practices, often viewing themselves as the only true path to salvation. This can lead to intolerance toward other religions or even other branches of the same religion. Churches, on the other hand, tend to be more inclusive and accepting of different beliefs and practices, with a focus on community and broader social issues. Choices A and B are not particularly indicative of either sects or churches, and choice C could apply to both.
