Jesuits (The Society of Jesus)

The Knights of Columbus is a Catholic fraternal service organization that provides charitable services, promotes Catholic education, and supports the Church and its mission. The Jesuits, or the Society of Jesus, is a religious order within the Catholic Church known for its emphasis on education, social justice, and missionary work. While the two organizations have different structures and missions, both share a commitment to the Catholic faith and community service. The Jesuit influence can be seen in the values of education and social responsibility that resonate within the Knights of Columbus.

The Huron people had mixed feelings about the Jesuits' presence in their villages. While some viewed the missionaries with curiosity and saw potential benefits in their teachings, others were wary of their intentions and the disruption they brought to their traditional way of life. The Jesuits' efforts to convert the Huron to Christianity often clashed with their spiritual beliefs, leading to tension and resistance among certain groups. Overall, the relationship was complex, marked by both intrigue and skepticism.

Yes, there are Jesuit schools in the Reno, Nevada area. Notably, Bishop Manogue Catholic High School is a co-educational institution that is affiliated with the Jesuit tradition, emphasizing academic excellence and spiritual development. Jesuit education is characterized by a focus on social justice, service, and the formation of the whole person.

The Jesuits were effective because they preached the Holy Scripture and especially the Holy Gospel of Our Lord Jesus Christ, exhorting everyone to keep God's commandments. One of the two popes in the 1500s, Paul III, approved the Jesuit order.

From a Jesuit blog: According to a recent Jesuit Documentation, No. 81, published from Rome, as of January 2001, there were 21,063 Jesuits in the world - 14,852 priests, 3,997 scholastics, and 2,311 Brothers.

That figure was updated in 2009 to read about 17,000 total world-wide, but as of 2014, when I write this, there are still a good number of Jesuits alive and well.

Jesuits are members of the Society of Jesus, the largest religious Order in the Catholic Church. For the most part, they are priests who serve out in the world, they are not a monastic Order. Since the beginning of the Order, in the sixteenth century, the Society of Jesus as divided its time pretty much equally between mission work, and staffing Education Institutions, mostly on the college level. Individual Jesuits daily responsibilities are widely varied depending on where they are assigned. They have the duties of any priest: the Divine Office, and daily Mass, hearing confessions, spiritual direction, etc. Beyond that, they duties would depend on whether they were in a Mission, or a College, or wherever they may be assigned.

Jesuits opposed slavery at every opportunity they could. They even built entire villages of "freemen" to integrate into the empires. Every Pope denounced slavery, and even threatened ex-communication for having slaves. - Written for "Christianity Today" by Stark

Avery Cardinal Dulles makes the following observations about the Catholic Church and the institution of slavery

1. For many centuries the Church was part of a slave-holding society.

2. The popes themselves held slaves, including at times hundreds of Muslim captives to man their galleys.

3. Throughout Christian antiquity and the Middle Ages, theologians generally followed St. Augustine in holding that although slavery was not written into the natural moral law it was not absolutely forbidden by that law.

4. St. Thomas Aquinas, Luther, and Calvin were all Augustinian on this point. Although the subjection of one person to another was not part of the primary intention of the natural law, St. Thomas taught, it was appropriate and socially useful in a world impaired by original sin.

5. No Father or Doctor of the Church was an unqualified abolitionist.

6. No pope or council ever made a sweeping condemnation of slavery as such.

Protestant/hummanist/secularist version:

Jesuits were the only "monastical order" permitted to conduct "commercial trade" thus were the primary practitioners of the "slave trade", thus the term "the Jesuit slave trade". They were deeply involved with profiteering from it, and made large contributions of the wealth from these activities to the Vatican, who also had personal slaves (within the Vatican).

Jesuits owned and sold slaves, unavoidably profited from their transactions, and encouraged more human treatment of their conditions. - The Voice, Georgetown University

Hitler was a devout Roman Catholic, it has only been admitted recently, that he was NOT an "Atheist", as was promoted and claimed for nearly 40 years by people who knew this was a lie.

Whatever you wish to believe. That's the whole point of the disinformation. You'll have to "figure it out" on your own. The truth is probably all of the above, and a little bit that is too embarrassing to ever be admitted.

Only Pope Francis was a Jesuit who became pope.
