Pittsburgh priest excommunicated

The Catholic Diocese of Pittsburgh today formally declared that a priest who has begun a breakaway church is excommunicated.

The Rev. William Hausen caused himself to be excommunicated when he conducted a service at his new Christ Hope church in Sewickley on Sunday, a statement from the diocese said.

This seems notably fast for an excommunication to occur...
