The main split between the Orthodox Church and the Western Catholic Church was over the use of icons.
The Patriarch hated them while the Pope tolerated them.
But what if some time like - say in the 1200-1300 the Catholic Church goes through its own massive internal iconoclasm?
What could cause it? (Loss of Jerusalem? / Black Death?)
What would be the effect?
