What authority does the diocesan bishop have over a Jesuit facility? The head of the Jesuits used to be known as the "Black Pope" and was answerable only to Rome.
What's the situation now? Can the bishop rat this group out to Rome?
Even though the author of Windswept house was laicised - his story is compelling. The Jesuits are rotten apples at the bottom of the barrel and need to be exorcised.
I thought the bishop of a diocese still had sayso over what orders were allowed within the boundaries of his diocese?
Short of full suppression, B-16 can and should strip Kolvenbach and the society of its papal protections. Somehow, the Dominicans and Franciscans and Benedictines and other orders have survived without special status. Likewise, however, B-16 should stand prepared to punish anti-Catholic bishops. Subsidiarity is a cherished principle in Catholicism and in conservatism but it has its limits, Whether a religious order rebels or a bishop rebels, punishment should be sure and swift.
The good news is that, although the Jebbies have gone from "God's Marines" to Satan's in forty years, their numbers are now one third of what they were then and rapidly declining. Their leftist commitments may suppress themselves.
Religious orders exercise their ministries in a given diocese "at the pleasure of the bishop." If he feels that an egregious enough situation exists, he can order them out of his territory. It's an extremely rare event, though, and probably more of a PR nightmare and headache than even a modern-day St. Athanasius would want to bear.
