"Manylaygroupshavebeenformedinrecentyearswiththeadmirablepurposeof(especially)imitatingourLord'spoverty.

Anti-clerical
"Now.weallknowthatthereareanumber ofclergywholiveinaworldlyfashion.Unfortunately,MnWaldoandhisfollowerturned theirperchingintoattacksontheclergy.
"WhenhisArchbishoporderedthemtostop preaching,MrWaldorepliedthattheyshould obeyGodratherthanmen.
"HeandhisfollowerswenttoRomeandappearedtoPopeAlexanderJed_ThePopere. ceivedthemkindlybutremindedthemthatlay peoplemaynotpreachwithoutthepriorpermissionoftheirbishop.. "Undeterred,thegroupcontinuedtopreach withoutpermission.Theirpreachingbecame moreanti-clerical,andtheycondemnedchurchesasunnecessarybuildings.
Doctrinesdenied
"Whatwasreallyserious,however,wastheir newapproachindenyingthosedoctrineswhich arenotexplicitlymentionedintheBible,e.g. PurgatoryandIndulgences.
"Eventually,theArchbishopofLyonsexpelledthemfromthedioceseanddenounced themtoRome."
