Vatican Officials Issue Ultimatum to Traditionalist Catholic Group: A long-standing dispute within the Catholic Church has reached a boiling point as the Vatican has issued a stern warning to a breakaway Catholic group, known for its adherence to the traditional Latin mass. The group, which has been at odds with the mainstream Catholic Church over its liturgical practices, plans to ordain new bishops without the approval of Pope Leo XIII, sparking concerns that the move could lead to a formal schism. The Vatican's intervention comes as the group, led by a prominent traditionalist cleric, continues to push for greater autonomy and resistance to modernizing reforms implemented by the Church. As tensions escalate, the fate of the group's future within the Catholic Church hangs in the balance.
The Vatican on Wednesday urged a breakaway Catholic group dedicated to the old Latin mass to cancel plans to ordain new bishops without consent from Pope Leo.
