It goes both ways. Christians feeling superior to each other is a smug little tendency that's old as dirt. Different traditions across denominations that aren't biblically mandated still manage to make people feel their church has got it right and the others don't. It just feels so good to fancy yourself the more evolved believer. Tale as old as time, song as old as rhyme, beauty and the beeeeeeast.

You need to broaden this out. ALL religions, not just Christian, are about being in the 'better' group. Any proclamations to the contrary are false modesty. Religion combines this with the need to be in A group as well as in THE group.
