The late conservative Australian Cardinal George Pell was the author of an anonymous memo condemning Pope Francis' papacy as a "catastrophe" where political correctness held sway while global wrongs were ignored, says the journalist who published it.
Released last year under the pseudonym "Demos" - Greek for populace - the document accuses the pope of silence on moral issues, including the German Catholic Church's openness to the LGBTQ community, women priests and communion for the divorced.
