Mexican archdiocese claims Pope was misinformed
MEXICO CITY (AP) — Mexico's main archdiocese has taken the unusual step of publicly saying Pope Francis had been badly advised when directed harsh words to local bishops during his visit in mid-February.
"The Mexican bishops have been accompanying the suffering, downtrodden people, devoting their lives to others and not living like 'princes,'" the editorial said.
During his half-hour of silent prayer, Francis later told reporters "I prayed for the Mexican people, and one thing I prayed for a lot for that priests be true priests, and sisters be true sisters and bishops be true bishops as the Lord wants."
