The Secretariat for
Communication of the Holy See has blocked access to a website
where it it possible to sign a petition accusing Pope Francis of
heresy in his 2016 document Amoris Laetitia - The Joy of Love,
sources said Monday.
As a result it is not possible to access the page in any
language from computers inside the Vatican.
The page, www.correctiofilialis.org, can be reached outside
the Vatican.
The petition is linked to a 25-page letter by conservative
Catholics delivered to the pope in August last month issuing him
a "filial correction" - a measure they said was being using for
the first time since the 14th century - over the document, which
opens up the possibility of divorced and civilly remarried
Catholics receiving communion.
Among the signatories is Ettore Gotti Tedeschi, the former
president of the Vatican bank, the IOR.
The letter accuses the pope of seven "heretical positions
about marriage, the moral life, and the reception of the
sacraments, and has caused these heretical opinions to spread in
the Catholic Church".
