All I can say is this: We live in strange times when I find greater doctrinal fellowship among many Protestants than I do among far too many Catholic theologians!

Edward T. Oakes, S.J., teaches theology at the University of St. Mary of the Lake.


To be fair, I have met some rather orthodox Jesuits who were more comfortable talking to me than many of their fellows. But he was (I suspect) a rather small minority.

I have heard and seen more who would be very comfortable in the ECUSA.

I don't doubt they (orthodox Jesuits) exist...somewhere. They're certainly not hiding out in my family, though! :)
