The Greatest Schism: between modern theology and asceticism?

Boniface, "The Greatest Schism" (Unam Sanctam Catholicam, December 15, 2013):
This post's title does not refer to the Greek schism, nor to the Great Western Schism of the 15th century, nor even to the tremendous modernist crisis within the Church today.

Interesting thesis.
