VATICAN CITY - Pope Francis told members of a disgraced religious order on Saturday they must renounce the legacy of their founder and acknowledge he was a con-man who sold the “illusion” of holiness while living a double life as a paedophile.

“A change of mentality in individuals and an institution takes a long time to sink in,” Francis said in the speech, which was released by the Vatican after a slight illness forced the pope to cancel the audience where he was to have read it. Although allegations were made against him as early as 1954, the Vatican and the order only began slowly acknowledging Maciel’s abuse in 2006, when Pope Benedict ordered him to retire to a life of “prayer and penitence”.

Last Wednesday, the order’s new leader, 51-year-old American priest John Conner, promised to turn a page as the group enacted new norms to protect children.
