The correct answer is “Disagreements about the use of unleavened bread and the power of the pope”


The schism of 1054 was the event that separated the Eastern Christian Church from the Western Church.

One of the first problems was that Roman Catholic Church decided to insert some extra words - “and from the Son”. The Eastern Orthodox Church disagreed with the addition and called it non-canonical.

The Balkans territory also was a point of discussion because both Churches thought they had jurisdiction over the area.

The Power of the Pope was also a problem because the Patriarch of Constantinople was named ecumenical patriarch and the Roman Catholic Church disagreed with it naming it because they saw it as a universal patriarch and this would influence the power of The Pope over other patriarchs.

Disagreements about the Bible as the religious text and the use of icons contributed a lot to the Great Schism between the Eastern and Western Christian churches.

Further Explanations:

The Great Schism of 1504 was the conflict amid the Eastern Orthodox churches and the Roman Catholic that lasted till the end of the 11th century. One of the important problems of the Roman Catholic Church was the addition of the word “and from the son”, that was disagreed by the Eastern Orthodox Churches. They both also wanted authority over the Balkans territory so as to expand themselves. The Supreme authority “Pope” was also another hurdle for the Roman Catholic Churches as they considered it as a universal patriarch and influential over all other patriarchs.

It was the finale of political and theological differences among the Christian West and East. The prominent issues of the disagreement were the use of leavened bread by the Eucharist, the possession of the Holy Spirit and the universal jurisdiction of Bishop of Rome. The last emperor of Rome was dethroned in 476 and was then sent to Constantinople that marked the total separation of the Eastern Orthodox Church and the Roman Catholic Church.
