Pope warns against double-life 'scandal'

Pope Francis on Thursday warned Catholics against leading a double life during morning Mass at the Vatican guesthouse where he resides."What is scandal?" asked the pope.

"Scandal is saying one thing and doing another: it's leading a double life," he continued. 

"Double life in everything: I am very Catholic, I always go to Mass, I belong to this and that association, but I do not lead a Christian life, I don't pay my employees a fair wage, I exploit people, I have dirty business dealings, I engage in money laundering… Double life," Francis said.

"Many Catholics are like this" he concluded.
