No, Patriarch Michael I still lead The Orthodox Church during the Great Schism.Pope Leo IX still led the Roman Catholic Church, but it was at this point when he tried to bring The Orthodox Church under his control.
Roman Catholic AnswerIn the Catholic Church, the "Great Schism" usually refers to the Western schism when there were two, sometimes, three claimants to the papal throne. The pope had moved to Avignon, in France; another Pope was elected in Rome. This went on from 1378 until 1417. The Schism of the East in 1054 was between the Catholic Church and what is now called the Orthodox Church, is sometimes now in popular cultures as "the Great Schism". But, as I said, it is confusing as that technically refers to the Schism of the West not the East.

How did Great Schism contribute to Protestant Reformation?
it divided the roman catholic church which lead to protestant churches
What was the great schism for the Christians about?
The Great Schism was in 1054 between the Roman (Latin) Church in Italy and the Byzantine (Greek) Church in modern Turkey today. The Christian Church split along doctrine, theology, language, politics, and geography. This would eventually lead to the development of the Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox churches. Another famous schism was in 1378 AD when there were 2 Popes - an Italian named Urban VI and a Frenchman named Clement the VII. It took 40 years to fix this split.
Did Clement VII lead Eastern Orthodox Church?
No, he did not.
Who lead the Greek orthodox church in the ad?
I don't know what you mean by "ad".I may be wrong, but I believe the Greek Orthodox Church's hierarch is Patriarch Bartholomew of Constantinople, Turkey, who is one of the patriarchs of the broader Orthodox Church.
How was the Reformation different from a schism or a heresy?
The Reformation was different from a schism or a heresy in that it was a religious and political movement that aimed to reform the existing Roman Catholic Church, rather than forming a separate church or promoting false doctrines. While it did lead to the formation of new Protestant denominations, the main goal of the Reformation was to address perceived corruptions and abuses within the Catholic Church.
Whose fault was the Great Schism?
A:The Great Schism of 1054, referred to by the Catholic Church as the Schism of the East, resulted in a permanent split in the Christian Church. The Catholic Church teaches that Patriarch Michael I was at fault, while the Orthodox Churches say that Pope Leo IX was at fault. Regardless of so-called fault, there is no real evidence that the Schism did long term harm to Christianity. The two parts of Catholic-Orthodox Christianity always had different ideas of Christian worship and even celebrated Easter at different times of the year. So we should not look for "fault" in the Great Schism, when it may have been inevitable.The underlying issue really concerned the relative authority of two very obstinate men. Because the Council of Nicaea decided that Christianity in the Roman Empire would be led by four senior bishops or Metropolitans representing Rome, Alexandria, Antioch and Jerusalem, with provision for Constantinople and Carthage (where Metropolitans were subsequently appointed), the mainly Greek-speaking eastern regions held that the bishop of Rome was one among equals. However, the bishop of Rome, designated in the West as the Pope, insisted that he had greater authority than the other Metropolitans. Gradually, differences built up until, in 1054, Pope Leo IX insisted on the right to make a change to the Nicene Creed, on his own and apart from an Ecumenical Council. The Great Schism resulted when legates from Pope Leo IX and Patriarch Michael I excommunicated each other.When Pope Leo IX authorised his emissaries to excommunicate Patriarch Michael I, he believed that his action would at long last establish the bishop of Rome as the supreme leader of the Church. Michael was only unable to excommunicate Leo because the western pontiff had already died, but when he excommunicated the emissaries, he did not realise that the two actions would lead to the Great Schism. Because neither side would compromise, the Church was set on the path to a permanent schism, known as the Great Schism..AnswerHistorically, in the Catholic Church, the Great Schism refers to the 15th century when there were up to three claimants to the Papal Throne, also known as the Schism of the West. Protestant and secular historians usually refer to the Schism of the East as the Great Schism, which occurred in the eleventh century. In both of the schisms, the fault lay in individual's sin, mostly the sin of pride. In the Western Schism, it was national pride of European nations, in the Eastern Schism, it was national pride of some Eastern patriarchs.

How did the Great Schism lead to the destruction of the Church?
Catholic AnswerThe Great Schism did not lead to the destruction of the Church, but it certainly led to the weakening of the papacy, which eventually resulted in the protestant revolt, which did a lot to deny large numbers of people to the Church and the sacraments which Christ established for people's salvation. The Great Schism, otherwise known as the Western Schism is not to be confused with the Schism of the East. The Schism of the East was when the Eastern Church broke into two factions, half staying with Rome, and half formed what is now called the Orthodox Church. Many contemporary, particularly protestant scholars seem to confuse the two. What is called the Great Schism in the Catholic Church was the Western Schism, which, even more confusing, was not really a schism in the sense that the Schism of the East was, but a time when the Church had more than one claimant to the Papal Throne, finally resulted in three, one pope and two antipopes.from Modern Catholic Dictionary by John A. Hardon, S.J. Doubleday & Co., Inc. Garden City, NY 1980The Great Schism, otherwise known as the Western Schism, 1378-1417, when there was controversy over the true succession to the papacy. It began with the writings of Marsilius of Padua c. 1275- 1342), who claimed that a pope is subject to a council of bishops, priests, and laymen. Urban VI was elected Pope on April 8, 1378, following the seventy-year Avignon residence of the papacy. He was a stern reformer and also harsh. The French cardinals in retaliation declared that Urban had not been validly elected and proceeded to elect Robert of Geneva as the antipope Clement VII (1378-94). Clement withdrew to Avignon and the Great Schism was in full swing. France, Scotland, and Spain gave their allegiance to Clement; England, Italy, Flanders, Hungary, Poland, and most of Germany followed Urban, who died in 1389. There followed a succession of lawful popes at Rome and antipopes at Avignon. The universities of Paris, Oxford, and Prague disputed how the impasse should be resolved. Finally pope and antipope were invited to a council at Pisa (1409); both decline and were declared deposed by the council, which proceeded to elect yet another antipope, Alexander V (1409-10). In desperation, Emperor Sigismund of Germany appealed to the antipope John XXIII of Pisa, to call a general council at Constance, a German city on the Rhine. John agreed, and the council, later legitimized, was convened in 1414. It lasted four years and finally resolved the schism. The Pisan antipope John XXIII abdicated. Gregory XII, the true Roman Pontiff, having formally convoked the Council of Constance, sent his representatives, and then, for the good of the Church, freely resigned his office. The claim of Benedict XIII of Avignon was no longer worthy of serious consideration. The chair of Peter, vacant at last was filled by the election, November 11, 1417, of Pope Martin V. The Great Schism was ended.
