Francis is trying to treat the symptom by declaring that it is not a symptom at all, rather than examining one of the main root problems; massively non-catechised Catholic lay people.

Pope Bergola continues to impress. Not.

Yes, in the Novus Ordo church it is rare that pastors lay "intolerable" burdens on others.
