My sense is that denominational distinctions amongst Protestants are not as important as they once used to be.

Since there’s more recognition of the unity we have in salvation by grace through faith in Christ alone, there’s more room for those things which are *disputable* (Romans 14)

Of course, it seems that certain factions would like to keep fueling the fires of denominationalism for their own ends, but I think that most folks just aren’t interested in being put at the throats of other believers.

Absolutely. There are still some problem areas, but for the essentials, there is generally unity. There are always distinctives; but if it doesn't impugn salvation by grace alone through faith alone, given to us by God and relying on no merit of our own, then we can always get along.
