Pope Francis accuses young Catholic priests who like the Latin Mass of ‘mental imbalance’

Pope Francis has renewed his oft-repeated criticisms of young Catholics devoted to the Latin Mass, accusing them of practicing 'backwardism' and of 'sectarian worldliness' in his new wide-ranging memoir 'Hope' released Tuesday.

Perhaps bergoglio best take a look at himself and quit hurling his accusations of disgraceful name calling against young faithful priests who like the traditional latin mass.

As his office is supposed to provide a role model of mercy, compassion and piety, as the leader of the Catholic faithful......somethings terribly bizarre and amiss....

I always wonder, we who only speak English are relying on translations of anything he says. Could it be that mistranslation or deliberate deception is afoot?
Not in every case, of course. Some things are about things he's
done and not about what he has said. But in this case, would he actually say such a thing publicly? It seems such a foolish thing to do, no matter his opinion.
