	The Great Schism of Jainism
		The history of Jaina religion is full of references to the various schisms that had taken place from time to time, and some of these schisms contributed to the rise of sects and sub-sects in Jaina religion.
		Among these schisms, the eighth schism was more important as it ultimately split the Jaina religion into two distinct sects of Digambara Jainas and Svetambara Jainas.
		According to the account of the eighth schism, known as the great schism, which is corroborated by historical evidence, the process of the split continued from the third century B.C. up to the first century of the Christian Era.

	Schism by Tool Songfacts
		In ?Schism?, Maynard Keenan, the singer/lyricist, is talking about divisions inside the Church, which pushes man further away from God and he is also saying that to maintain any sort of relationship between two people there has to be good communication.

		And this song Schism is pure genious, it's just awesome and I don't know if I will ever be able to fathom of all those awesome songs but I embrace them.

	Church of the SubGenius - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Some of these clenches even position themselves as their own religion; this is encouraged by the Church, and is officially known as a "schism".
		This belief is probably why the Church is seen as an elaborate joke, an arguably postmodern mockery of organized religion, and a parody of controversial religious groups and cults.
		The organization is widely seen as a satire that mocks organized religion, or as the church describes itself, "a cynisacreligion."

		The excesses of the papacy at Avignon, and even more the spectacle of the schism, caused many thoughtful Christians to lose faith not in their religion, but in the priesthood.

		Which means that from 0:00 - 3:14 the song can be counted 1-2-3-1-2-3-1-2-3-, but at 3:14 the song enters 7/8 timing, meaning the song is then counted 1-2-3-1-2-3-1 1-2-3-1-2-3-1, and continues in this timing until 5:03 when the song enters 5/8 timing, counted 1-2-3-1-2 1-2-3-1-2.
