schism, n.Definitions

A Schism (n.) may ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠express the unrecognized polarity of the God-image itself: the Church's split four centuries ago, the world's two hostile camps today.

A Schism (n.) can ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠exist only in matters of faith, Jung wrote in 1912 of his differences with Freud, whereas psychoanalysis deals with knowledge and its ever-changing formulations.

A Schism (n.) follows ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠the slightest deviation from an assertion held indisputable, since one cannot think about such an object, only assert it; so the religion of brotherly love offers the sad spectacle of one great and many small schisms.
