Schismatic is the word for a split of that kind — a group tearing into two over aims or belief, especially in the Christian church — or for a person who takes a side in it and will not come back. In church history, calling someone schismatic means you think they tore the church in two: not only disagreed, but walked away and made another group. As an adjective it means “causing that split” or “belonging to it.” It is a hard, often accusing word; the speaker usually sees the split as a wound. Though actually, each side may call the other schismatic. (There is a rare extra meaning in music theory, from a related Greek word about tiny differences in pitch. That is not this sense.)
