You would not be baffled if you understood what schism is and how it happens.
By this statement you are presuming your are already correct. Once you make your thoughts known to us that you think it did occur, I will show you that you are mistaken. But hide if you will. Again, being "stubborn" is condemned in Scripture. It is not a good thing.
I have not presumed anything, I have posted the facts as CMRI itself dictates them on their own website, and posted those facts directly from their website - you think the CMRI doesn't mean what they say, yet you believe them to be honest and that they are not hiding anything - that is your first blunder, but that is the blunder you base your entire opinion on.
You believe their half truths to be the whole truth either because you do not know what schism is and how it happens, or, like Mryna, you don't want to know the whole truth and want others to accept half truths just as you accept them - for the sake of fellowship I guess.
Either way, if nothing else, they actually do come out and tell you right on their website enough information to throw up the red flag, to raise suspicion, to cast serious doubt and give reason to run from, not to them - *if* you know what schism is and how it happens, and if you care enough about it to actually look into it rather than simply blow it off while convincing yourself that they don't actually mean what they say.
