Quaestio: Were political and cultural differences between East and West the main cause of the Great Schism? Turn to page 171 in your textbook and answer the following… Nunc Agenda
Nunc Agenda (p 171) • Define Clergy • Define Diocese • Define Bishop • Which 5 Bishops became Patriarchs and why? • What title did the Bishops of Rome take, and what claim did they make about their position?
Five top bishops, called Patriarchs, were in Rome, Constantinople, Alexandria, Antioch, and Jerusalem By 661 CE, what happened to Antioch, Jerusalem, and Alexandria?

Causes of Schism • WEST: Bishop of Rome, called the Pope, claimed Papal Supremacy, that the Pope was supreme authority over all bishops AND all political leaders • EAST: Believed all Patriarchs were equal • Accepted Caesaropapism- political leader had power over the church, chose the Patriarch Pope Leo IX
Causes of Schism • Division between East and West Europe led to difference in religious practice… • Western Priests were celibate (could not marry) but Eastern could marry • Byzantine Emperor banned use of icons (religious images) in worship, Pope rejected the ban • Disagreed on type of bread for communion
“Filioque” controversy • 1014- Pope added words into the Nicene Creed (Christian declaration of faith) without permission from Patriarchs • Why did the Pope think that was OK? • How did the Eastern Patriarchs react? Pope Leo IX

Critical Thinking Questions Take a few minutes to discuss these questions with the person next to you. Then we will open up into a class-wide discussion. These questions require you to think deeply, not just look up an answer. Challenge yourself! • In the West, the Pope had more power than any political ruler. In the East, the Emperor had power over the Patriarch. What might have caused this difference? • How might a difference in language (Latin VS Greek) have made it difficult for the two sides to agree on their beliefs?
