A 20-page letter, signed by a group of conservative Catholic priests and scholars, accuses Pope Francis of heresy. This is the latest of the long series of efforts of the conservatives to disgrace the pope who is trying to bring about reforms in the light of the Second Vatican Council and a new attitude of mercy and forgiveness in the Church.
The letter, addressed to all the Catholic bishops of the world, tries to "accuse Pope Francis of the canonical delict [a violation of the law] of heresy, and second, to request that you take the steps necessary to deal with the grave situation of a heretical pope."
The reaction to this accusation resulted in both some support for and opposition to the accusation of heresy.
