Ever since 2000, when I was received into the Church, I noticed that Catholics in general rolled their eyes when it came to the Jesuits. Still, I know next to nothing about the Jesuits.
I was informed of their mostly intellectual acumen and the Order’s intense academic focus on theology, world religions and languages, Greek, Hebrew, etc.
Sounds great, but now this mess. Is it because Bergoglio is a Jesuit, or a South American socialist/Liberation geologist, or a cunning Apostate?
He does not even seem especially educated, certainly not intellectual.
Theologist, not geologist.
Even when the Jesuits were orthodox, they had the reputation of being too clever by half.
