Pope tells scandal-marred Legion they still haven't reformed

Pope Francis told the Legion of Christ religious order Saturday it still has a long road of reform ahead, making clear that 10 years of Vatican-mandated rehabilitation hadn't purged it of the toxic influences of its pedophile founder. In a prepared speech, Francis told the Legion’s new superiors a “very vast field” of work was needed to correct the Legion's problems and create a healthy order. “A change of mentality requires a lot of time to assimilate in individuals and in an institution, so it’s a continual conversion,” Francis said.
