When the Bishop/Pope of Rome claimed supremacy over the entire Church because of St. Peter's founding of the Church there, and the Bishop/Patriarch of Constantinople kindly disagreed...so the Eastern and Western Churches pretty much went their own way, and do so to this day.Originally Posted by SoonerProphet
This too is called the Great Schism, just as the dual Papacy is.

so one might say there was a Schism Schism.
Didn't Pope Clement V, in fact, move the papacy to Avignon? Under the auspices of the then King of France, Phillip IV, he authorized the suppression arrest, and torture of the Knights Templar in October 1307.

don't forget the Baptist and Methodist schisms.
They occurred in the 1850's in the US when the Baptist denomination split over the issue of human chattel slavery. Northern Baptists were abolition-friendly which the southern members of the denomination found reprehensible.
Today's Southern Baptist Convention resulted from the pro-slavery folks jumping ship and setting up their own branch.
Same dealio with Methodists. The Southern Methodist (a/k/a Methodist Episcopal Church, South) denomination resulted precisely the same way.
