BURGOS, Spain - The Archbishop of Burgos in northern Spain on Monday demanded that 10 nuns who were excommunicated after a months-long standoff over a property dispute leave the convent where they live.The Poor Clare sisters from a 15th-century convent in the northern town of Belorado near Burgos were excommunicated after they failed to turn up for a meeting on Friday to discuss their position before a church tribunal.
"The stand-off began when the sisters announced in a May 13 letter posted on social media that they were breaking away from the Roman Catholic Church because it had blocked their attempt to buy another convent in the nearby northern Basque region.The nuns also accused the Vatican of "doctrinal chaos" and "contradictions" in positions on faith matters in the letter, which was signed by the order's Mother Superior, sister Isabel de la Trinidad.
