✣ Leaked letter restarts ‘Amoris wars’
What happened?
The debate over Amoris Laetitia has reopened after a letter written by Pope Francis was leaked. The Pope wrote to Buenos Aires bishops about their proposed guidelines for priests. These said that if the “responsibility and culpability” of a remarried person are “diminished”, then “Amoris Laetitia opens up the possibility of access to ... Reconciliation and the Eucharist”. The Pope’s letter said the document “completely explains the meaning” of Amoris Laetitia’s chapter eight – the most controversial.
