uvgt2bkdnme: Is there a difference between heresy and schism, and if so, what is it?
2089 Incredulity is the neglect of revealed truth or the willful refusal to assent to it.
“Heresy is the obstinate post-baptismal denial of some truth which must be believed with divine and catholic faith, or it is likewise an obstinate doubt concerning the same;
apostasy is the total repudiation of the Christian faith;
schism is the refusal of submission to the Roman Pontiff or of communion with the members of the Church subject to him.” [Code of Canon Law c.751]
So, if you refuse to listen to the Church, it’s a heresy, if you don’t listen to the Pope it’s a schism.
