What Is the Sin of Schism?

i really enjoyed the recent exchange i had with doctor ortland. He brings a very irenic quality and an academic rigor to his critiques of catholicism. And so all the sime, we're receive this. I just don't think it is. If what you believe that your authority is scripture. You can always end up saying, i i follow my pastor, except when he contradicts scripture. Or, i follow my church and its articles, except when it contradicts scripture.
