The term ''Great Schism'' refers to either of two splits in the history of Christianity: * Most commonly, it refers to the great East-West Schism, the event that separated Eastern Orthodoxy and Western Roman Catholicism in the 11th century (1054). * In the second schism within the Catholic Church, the Western Schism in the 14th century (1378), three (claimant) Pope were elected at the same time. nds:Grote Schisma
I thought the schism of 1054 was a schism between the western and eastern churches (as indicated by the section title), and not between the Roman and Orthodox churches. If anything, it was my impression that the split was between the Roman and Eastern Catholic/Eastern Rite churches. The Eastern Orthodox/Eastern Catholic history is a complicated one, but I think at the time of the schism, what we call today's Eastern Orthodox and Eastern Catholics were still one in the same, and therefore the split was between the Western and Eastern churches. : The split was actually between the Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox churches. The Eastern Catholic or Eastern Rite churches follow Eastern Orthodox rites, but acknowledge the supremacy of the Pontiff of Rome in theological matters, which the Eastern Orthodox do not. This is a later development, the result of some of the Eastern schismatics converting back partially the Roman church as a compromise of sorts. In the original Schism, the Eastern Churches rejected the supreme authority of the Pope; indeed this was one of the reasons for the Schism -- there were initially five Patriarchs, the one in Rome (the Pope) attempted to assert supremacy, which was rejected by the other four. -- User:Delirium 08:45 4 Jul 2003 (UTC) ------ "This is a later development, the result of some of the Eastern schismatics converting back partially the Roman church as a compromise of sorts.

It was not until after the Schism that the Patriarch of Constantinople claimed to be the Ecumenical Patriarch: with the other "equal" now gone from the Church, it was only then (after 1054) that the Patriarch of Constantinople was left as the only remaining "first among equals" from the original two.
