Abstract
The recent schism of the Serbian Orthodox Church in America provided a test situation for determining the causes of schism from field data. There were no differences in religious beliefs and practice between the two groups. However, differences between the feuding factions are evident in recency of migration, educational achievement, mobility in the U.S., and political party affiliation. Therefore, this schism appears to be a reflection of antagonisms of non-religious origin although expressed in religious division.
