    The document discusses the major splits and divisions within Christianity over history, including the Protestant Reformation which led to the emergence of new denominations.

    Some of the major splits discussed include the East-West Schism between the Catholic Church and Eastern Orthodox Church, and the Protestant Reformation which led to divisions from the Catholic Church in the 16th century.

    Some of the major differences discussed between Catholicism and Protestantism included views on communion (transubstantiation vs. consubstantiation), clerical celibacy, justification by faith alone vs. faith and works, the role of scripture and tradition, and the authority of the pope.
