U.S. Cardinal: Pope's 'No Hell' Comments a 'Profound Scandal'

Commenting on the worldwide reaction to Pope Francis' interview with his longtime atheist friend, Eugenio Scalfari, in which the latter claimed the Pope said there is no Hell [1]and that the souls of the damned are not eternal, Cardinal Burke, an American who serves on the Vatican's highest court, said the situation was "beyond tolerable" and "a source of profound scandal."

Cardinal Burke also criticized the Vatican's response to the scandal as "strongly inadequate" because the Vatican did not say Pope Francis rejcts these "heretical ideas."
