A schism (/ˈsɪzəm/ SIZ-əm, /ˈskɪzəm/, SKIZ-əm or, less commonly, /ˈʃɪzəm/ SHIZ-əm) is a division between people, usually belonging to an organization, movement, or religious denomination.
The word is most frequently applied to a split in what had previously been a single religious body, such as the Great East–West Schism or the Western Schism.
It is also used of a split within a non-religious organization or movement or, more broadly, of a separation between two or more people, be it brothers, friends, lovers, etc.
A division into two groups caused by a disagreement about ideas, especially in a religious organization: a schism in/within the Church.
The Western Schism, also known as the Papal Schism, the Great Occidental Schism, or the Schism of 1378 (Latin: Magnum schisma occidentale, Ecclesiae occidentalis schisma),
was a split within the Catholic Church lasting from 20 September 1378 to 11 November 1417, in which bishops residing in Rome and Avignon both claimed to be the true pope, and were joined by a third line of Pisan claimants in 1409.
The schism was driven by personalities and political allegiances, with the Avignon Papacy being closely associated with the French monarchy.

– The teaching (false doctrine) of Nicolaitans, which intended to divide the people from follwing God’s truth (The law of Moses), so that they may follow Nicolus the Edomite’s doctrine to take lead in people’s lives.
A schismatic is a person who creates or incites schism in an organization or who is a member of a splinter group.
Schismatic as an adjective means pertaining to a schism or schisms, or to those ideas, policies, etc that are thought to lead towards or promote schism (divide and rule).
In religion, the charge of schism is distinguished from that of heresy, since the offence of schism concerns not differences of belief or doctrine but promotion of, or the state of division, especially among groups with differing pastoral jurisdictions and authority.
However, schisms frequently involve mutual accusations of heresy, and also that of the Great Apostasy.
In 325 AD;
The strategic methods of schism (divide and rule) which were conjured by the Council of Nicea (led by the Roman emperor called “Constantine”),
that resulted into the division (which divided) the Jewish Elder’s in Jerusalem from the Christian Church.
Being the schism that enabled the Romans to take Chriatianity from its Jewish (Hebraic roots, and apostolic leadership) having its base in Israel,
so that they may centralise it’s spiritual leadership in Rome (Vatican), where the Pope sits as the Supreme authority over the entire body of Christianity.
