Not sure what a schism is, but its a damn good song — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.210.87.171  (talk • contribs)  22:29, 9 December 2005‎ (UTC)

^ I agree, but go away. In other news, I say merge. There's very little actual information on the Antinomianism page, as most of it seems to be about the various squabbles among Christian sects in the religion's formative years and also during the Reformation/Counter-Reformation. Listing all the squabbles exhibiting antinomianism is not encyclopedic and not intelligent. However, some of the info here could elaborate on some of the schisms there. --Nursethisviper 06:06, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

Antinomianism and Legalism (theology) are not schisms. There are plenty of Christian schisms if your goal is to expand the schism article. Here would be a good place to start:

See also Antipope, Sedevacantist antipope, Donatist, Arianism, Monophysitism, Monothelitism, Oriental Orthodoxy, Acacian schism, Protestantism, Jansenism, Old Catholic Church, ... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.15.197.109 (talk • contribs) 19:17, 30 July 2006‎ (UTC)

Move?
Good idea to create a disambiguation page. Do you think it would be less surprising to readers to move the original article back here, and to make this Schism (disambiguation)? Will anyone dispute that Schism (religion) is the predominant usage of the word? --Hroðulf (or Hrothulf) (Talk) 20:41, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I haven't heard any response in a week. Shall we go ahead and move Schism (religion) back here, as it will probably make things easier for readers?  --Hroðulf (or Hrothulf) (Talk) 10:59, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Sounds a good idea. Note that I updated a lot of articles to change schism to schism (religion).  --Michael C. Price talk 11:03, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Yes, I noticed. That is why I noticed the new page.  It looks like you fixed about 80 links, and there about 200 that still link to Schism that will also need to be checked.  If we do a move, then we get an automatic redirect, but as well as fixing the double redirects, there will still be a lot of work to do on those pages that linked to Schism, as they will redirect to the proposed Schism (disambiguation). Is there a tool or a bot that can help us? --Hroðulf (or Hrothulf) (Talk) 11:19, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Probably not, since there are some non religous uses of schism that don't need fixing. I guess we'll just have to do the donkey work the hard way.  --Michael C. Price talk 23:04, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

I have placed Schism (religion) at the top of the disambig page if that allays any concerns. Alan Liefting 03:25, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

No one cares anymore about making Schism (religion) primary? Huh. —Tamfang (talk) 03:51, 3 July 2011 (UTC)

– Schism (religion) is the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. JFH (talk) 19:10, 15 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Schism → Schism (disambiguation)
 * Schism (religion) → Schism
 * On the face of it support - "schism" may be applied to a few political divisions (where it is usually an emphatic idiom suggesting religious level ideology) but there's nothing to be written about that as a generic subject, while Schism is a fundamental concept in religion, as the giant list of sub-articles shows. In ictu oculi (talk) 23:54, 15 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Support per nom. None of the individual events called a schism can hold a candle to the general concept. bd2412  T 02:53, 16 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Comment A schism (/ˈsɪzəm/, siz-əm) is a division between people. I would say we are missing an article on the generalized topic of division of people due to political dustups. The religious schisms are a form of political schism, since it is due to religious politics such as interpretation of religious aspects. -- 65.94.169.222 (talk) 05:34, 16 August 2014 (UTC)
