 | | Since its earliest days, the Church recognized the special positions of three bishops, who were known as patriarchs: the Bishop of Rome, the Bishop of Alexandria, and the Bishop of Antioch. |  | | Each takes the view that it is the "One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church", implying that the other group left the true church during the Schism. |  | | Although the Great Schism was still centuries away, its outlines were already perceptible. |

 | | Most commonly, "Great Schism" refers to the "great East-West schism", the split between the Eastern and Western churches in the eleventh century; the second schism, the "schism of the west" in the fourteenth century, refers to a time when three (claimant) popes were elected at the same time. |  | | With movement of the emperor and political authority from Rome to Constantinople, a division was caused in the religious climate of the empire. |  | | From this time forward in the Catholic church it was decreed explicitly that no Council had power over the Popes, and there is no way to undo a Papal election by anyone but the pope. |

| | The Great Schism of Jainism |
 | | The history of Jaina religion is full of references to the various schisms that had taken place from time to time, and some of these schisms contributed to the rise of sects and sub-sects in Jaina religion. |  | | It is maintained that there were eight schisms, of which the first was caused by Jamali during Tirthankara Mahavira's lifetime, and the eighth took place during the first century of the Christian Era, that is after the lapse of nearly six hundred years after the nirvana of Tirthankara Mahavira. |  | | Among these schisms, the eighth schism was more important as it ultimately split the Jaina religion into two distinct sects of Digambara Jainas and Svetambara Jainas. |

| | History |
 | | The Great Schism is the title given to separation between the Western Church (the Roman Catholic) and the Eastern Church, (the Orthodox), which took place in the eleventh century. |  | | The Teachings of Christianity were developed by great pastors and theologians who are known as the "Fathers" of the Church. |  | | The counciliar and collegial expression of Church life and authority which was manifest at the Ecumenical Councils and other synods of the early Church continue to be an important aspect of Orthodox Christianity. |

 | | So the Creed was changed by a local synod of bishops and the justification was that it both asserts the divinity of Christ (refuting Arianism) and the unity of the Trinity. |  | | The Great Schism of 1054 caused a split between the See of Rome (now the Roman Catholic Church) and the other Christian Patriarchates. |  | | As soon as the See of Rome endorsed the idea of the Filioque, there is a split between the true faith and a schismatic faith. |

 | | The "Great Schism" between the Catholic and the Orthodox Churches is surely one of the most unfortunate chapters in the history of the Church. |  | | The Great Schism separated the entire Christian West from the Christian East, creating a sense of isolation in both East and West, to each Church's detriment. |  | | At various times, it has led to a regrettably sectarian spirit in both Churches and it is this schism that representatives of each Church were trying to mend in their most recent meeting in Emmitsburg, Maryland in July 2000. |

 | | The church, in general, was unable or unwilling to end the Schism and essentially abdicated its prerogatives of power to determine its own destiny by granting that authority to secular institutions. |  | | The letter itself states that Clement's curialists were convinced they would "get great offices and fat benefices now that the church is in turmoil, which they rightly believe they could never get in a whole and united church." After some delay, and considerable difficulty, the letter was read before Charles VI on June 30, 1394. |  | | There was little doubt in anyone's mind at the time, of course, that the Schism posed a grave threat to the church and to the salvation of all its believers. |

 | | The excesses of the papacy at Avignon, and even more the spectacle of the schism, caused many thoughtful Christians to lose faith not in their religion, but in the priesthood. |  | | The most significant development was that of lay piety, movements all over Europe (but especially strong in the cities) in which laymen sought God not through the agency of their priest and the sacraments, but through Bible study and common prayer. |  | | The Council was called as much to address other issues as to settle the Schism, for by this time many people believed that reform of the Church was necessary to prevent another catastrophe like the Schism. |

 | | The great centers of the semi-eremitic life in Egypt were Nitria and Scetis, which by the end of the fourth century had produced many outstanding monks — Ammon the founder of Nitria, Macarius of Egypt and Macarius of Alexandria, Evagrius of Pontus, and Arsenius the Great. |  | | Nicholas was a great reforming Pope, with an exalted idea of the prerogatives of his see, and he had already done much to establish an absolute power over all bishops in the west. |  | | But they see in the period of the Councils the great age of theology; and, next to the Bible, it is the Seven Councils which the Orthodox Church takes as its standard and guide in seeking solutions to the new problems which arise in every generation. |
