I do believe that there has to be some agreement. Unity will not happen when there is such disagreement in things such as standards or other beliefs.
Where I diverge from some is that I do not believe that we must throw out standards simply because there is so much disunity over it. I believe that we will have to reach some concensus eventually, though I am not sure where that will be.
I will not oppose fellowshipping with those who hold a lesser standard than I or my wife, except where they use it to proselytize those around us. Unfortunately, there are some who will try to do that and it breeds division.
Psalm 133 states it well.
