Jesuit magazine demonstrates a special kind of cowardice on Kavanaugh
American Thinker ^ | 09/29/2017 | Monica Showalter

Posted on 09/29/2018 12:08:31 PM PDT by SeekAndFind

Here we have it: Brett Kavanaugh, product of a Jesuit education, academic overachiever, fine young man, Supreme Court nominee – and suddenly bad stuff to the Jesuits' main magazine based on a single unsubstantiated accusation from a leftist.  So that's why America magazine is now disavowing him.  Take a look at the pious overload:

Evaluating the credibility of these competing accounts is a question about which people of good will can and do disagree.  The editors of this review have no special insight into who is telling the truth.  If Dr. Blasey's allegation is true, the assault and Judge Kavanaugh's denial of it mean that he should not be seated on the U.S. Supreme Court.  But even if the credibility of the allegation has not been established beyond a reasonable doubt and even if further investigation is warranted to determine its validity or clear Judge Kavanaugh's name, we recognize that this nomination is no longer in the best interests [sic] of the country.  While we previously endorsed the nomination of Judge Kavanaugh on the basis of his legal credentials and his reputation as a committed textualist, it is now clear that the nomination should be withdrawn.

Can you say "cowardice"?  They threw him off the bus, even as a product of their own handiwork in education, all to maintain the good opinion of the left.  Instead of Jesuitically waiting for all the facts to come in and make a prudential decision based on principles of justice, and go for it with fortitude, and keeping it all temperate (this is my Jesuit education speaking here, because these are the cardinal virtues Jesuits teach), they threw that – and Kavanaugh – all overboard in the interest of keeping leftists happy.

Fortunately, no one listens to the Jesuits.

RE: Fortunately, no one listens to the Jesuits.

The man sitting in St. Peter’s Chair is a Jesuit.

Well then, perhaps Kavanaugh is not as ‘Jesuit’ as I first feared. Many belong to a group that do not ascribe to everything the group holds to.

The next thing you know, the Jesuits will come out in favor of unlimited abortion.

The Jesuits have become a cabal of boy-buggering sodomites and Marxists. And their so-called leader himself is king of the Marxists ... The Argentinian Peron-worshiping purveyor of sodomite scandal - the anti-Catholic Pope, “Frankie the Great.”

The Jesuits are about as popular as was the Edsel.

I spent years in a Jesuit school. Trust me, I’m no Jesuit. Not even Catholic. Did get a top tier education.

It’s consoling to believe they have no influence, just like it’s consoling to believe nobody takes our “fake news” media seriously. But it’s not true. The Jesuits control the education of a significant chunk of America’s upcoming elite, just as they once had Brett Kavanaugh in their classrooms. And through Pope Francis and his allies, they have their grips on the universal Church.

The jesuits, with their leader, left the Catholic Church long ago.

You mean “The man sitting in Simon the sorcerer’s chair is a Jesuit”.

The Jesuits have been known over the centuries as the Black Order, the COA of the Vatican. They have been tossed out of some countries due to their skillfuggery

It’s a choice between Kavanaugh and their true god—liberalism. Of course Kavanaugh gets thrown under the bus.

The Catholic Church, including Jesuits, have been taken over by the homosexual, leftists for a long time. They are just spewing the party line.
