What is difference between Jesuit and other Catholic beliefs?

There is no such thing as a Jesuit or Dominican Catholic. They are all Catholics. A man who discerns a vocation to the Society of Jesus, started by St. Ignatius would become a Jesuit, he remains a Catholic. Likewise, a man (or woman) who discerns a vocation to the Dominicans would become a Dominican Friar (or Sister) but remain a Catholic. Jesuits and Dominicans are two religious Orders within the Church. Jesuits have two main vocations: to teach and to preach the faith to non-Catholics. Originally, the Order was founded to fight the protestant heresy. The Domicans were founded as an Order of Preachers, they were originally founded to fight the Arian heresy. Needless to say, the Dominicans have been a little bit more successful than the Jesuits, when was the last time you ran into an Arian vs. a protestant?

What is the religious belief of a Jesuit priest?

Jesuit's are Catholics. They initially started as a group of men who considered themselves God's enforcers, and were granted positions of priesthood after approaching the Pope. Eventually, the Jesuits started gaining influence over the church and took many of the measures that formed the Catholic institution we know today. So, the Jesuit Order's basic beliefs are roughly the same as a Catholic's.

Will a priest agree to perform a same-sex wedding ceremony?

A Roman Catholic priest is not likely to agree to such a thing, as he would face discipline from either the diocese or his order, since the Catholic church does not sanction same-sex marriage, even in places where it is legal. Catholic priests have been known to break ranks with church doctrine from time to time, but it does not happen often.

Can a Roman Catholic woman and a Roman Catholic man receive the sacrament of matrimony in a Ukrainian Catholic church?

I'm not familiar with the standing of a Ukrainian Catholic Church in relationship to the Roman Catholic Church. The Eastern Orthodox Church, which it may be, is currently in a 'schism' with the Church in Rome. This word, schism, is important. Any such church simply means that the Roman Catholic Church does not consider them preaching the same set of truths. When a Roman Catholic individual marries, they have a moral obligation to be married in the Catholic church. Thus, they should be married by a Roman Catholic priest who is in union with the Church. However, as you might have heard, exceptions can be granted. The best advice is really one that your pastor will answer. I urge you to pay him a visit and discuss this important topic. God bless you!


Do Jesuits support same-sex marriage?

Even if they did, their vow of obedience and the threat of sanctions would likely prevent them from saying so, since the Catholic Church does not permit same-sex marriage.Catholic AnswerAlthough there have been some Jesuits who have, individually, come out as supporting "same-sex marriage", this is an impossibility for the Jesuit Order as Catholic theology and natural law both teach that "same-sex marriage" is contrary to the natural law and a mortal sin. As Jesuits are priests of the Catholic Church and ordained to preach the truth to people, they are hardly in a position to support something so antithetical to the truth and to basic Christian teaching.
