Breakaway Cath. Group Says Pope Spreads Errors; St. Pius X Society Says Pope Pooh-Poohs Tradition

A breakaway traditionalist Catholic group accused Pope Francis yesterday of spreading confusion and errors about the faith, joining a chorus of conservative criticism over his perceived lax doctrine and emphasis on mercy at the expense of morals, the ABC News website reports today (June 30, 2016).

A statement from the schismatic Society of St. Pius X suggested that a new attempt at reconciliation with Rome had stalled.

The statement -- issued after a meeting of the society's superiors -- said its members were eager to return Catholic tradition to a church where "great and painful confusion" currently reigns.

It added errors had made their way into Catholic doctrine "that are unfortunately encouraged by a large number of pastors, including the pope himself."
