Too many American Jesuits have gone over to the Dark Side of Marxism. Drinan, Bourgeoise, Bill Davis, etc. Liberation Theology was their God, not the God of the bible.

Time for the Pope to clean house.

A disaster for the Jesuit. Especially so in that he's been a priest for 32 years and there's not many places he can go because of his age.

Hopefully, he has friends or relatives who know him and can take him in.

Stay tuned.

The dismissal also raises the specter of Pope Francis, the first head of the Catholic church to belong to the Jesuit order, having to confirm the dismissal of one of the order's members.

Given the little I know about Pope Francis, I'd predict his not comfirming the dismissal.

Stay tuned.

he should not have been dismissed....nor reeducated....various stances on various subjects should not be treated with such severity...there are limits, of course, on which subjects individuals can express their opinions.Abortion, nope, divinity of Christ, nope, assumption of Mary, nope, but American socialist opinions...of course not. Priests are human beings just like anyone else and they have various opinions...as long as they don’t oppose official Catholic teaching, I don’t care what they think.
