| | Schism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The words schism and schismatic have found perhaps their heaviest usage in the history of Christianity, to denote splits within a church or religious body. | | | The Great Schism; either of two rifts within the Christian church. | | | More generally, especially outside of religion, the word schism may refer to the separation/split between two or more people, be it brothers, friends, lovers, etc. or any division of a formerly united movement in politics or any other field into two or more disagreeing groups. |

| | 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. | | | From 343 to 398, the Church was split over Arianism, a doctrine supported by many in the East, though rejected by the Pope in the West. |

| | Definition of Schism |
| | As schism in its definition and full sense is the practical denial of ecclesiastical unity, the explanation of the former requires a clear definition of the latter, and to prove the necessity of the latter is to establish the intrinsic malice of the former. | | | Schism (from the Greek schisma, rent, division) is, in the language of theology and canon law, the rupture of ecclesiastical union and unity, i. | | | (6) With the dawn of the fourth century Egypt was the scene of the schism of Meletius, Bishop of Lycopolis, in the Thebaid. |

| | Patron Saints Index: schism, schismatic |
| | Schism refers to a split in the Church, the act by which one or more of the faithful cuts the ties which bind him to the social organization of the Church; the state of dissociation or separation which is the result of that act. | | | One of the most infamous schisms was caused by a dispute over the primacy of the pope over the Universal Church, and resulted in the split between the East and West. | | | Generally speaking, the schismatic does not deny the Faith, just the Church. |

| | The term Great Schism is used to refer to two major events in the history of Christianity: the division between the Eastern (Orthodox) and Western (Roman) churches, and the period (1378 - 1417) during which the Western church had first two, and later three, lines of popes. | | | The schism between the Eastern and Western churches is traditionally dated to 1054, although the precise point at which the split became a fixed and lasting reality is difficult to determine. | | | Although the beliefs of the Roman Catholic Church are closer to the beliefs of the Orthodox Church than are those of any other churches, it is necessary to list a few of the innovations added by the Roman Church after the separation of the Western from the Eastern Church. |

| | Heresies and schisms (in the scriptural sense of those words) will, sooner or later, be the consequence; parties will be formed, on one and the other side, whereby the love of many will wax cold. | | | This will easily appear to any that calmly consider the several texts wherein the word "schism" occurs: from the whole tenor of which it is manifest, that it is not a separation from any Church, (whether general or particular, whether the Catholic, or any national Church) but a separation in a Church. | | | This, consequently, was not a separation from the Church or Christian society at Corinth but a separation in the Church; a disunion in mind and judgment, (perhaps also affection) among those who, notwithstanding this, continued outwardly united as before. |

| | Schism or heresy? - October 2001 |
| | An essential element of the nature of schism is articulated by the Oxford Dictionary of the Christian Church, which notes that “schism is distinguished from heresy in that the separation involved is not at basis doctrinal; whereas heresy is opposed to faith, schism is opposed to charity.” | | | By definition, schism does not tear apart the fabric of the faith. | | | This distinction is clearly seen in the Roman Catholic tradition, wherein a schismatic bishop legitimately may ordain priests and a schismatic priest may continue to celebrate the Eucharist. |

| | In other words, using a certain liturgical Missal to offer the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass is not the same action as consecrating bishops without permission of the Roman Pontiff; even if one consecrates bishops in order to provide a source of ordination for priests who will say the Tridentine liturgy. | | | Rather, the pope declared this dogma because the Church had come to know for certain Mary that was assumed into heaven. | | | If you’re a Catholic who’s faithful to the Church’s teaching Magisterium, you’ve probably met up with followers of Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre’s 1988 schism, known as the Society of St. Pius X (SSPX). |
