Thanks for this post. We've got to figure out how best to help Father Fessio. Like many on these threads, I'm disgusted at the way today's Jesuits are disfiguring the Catholic Church beyond all recognition.

Once I was proud of being a Jesuit "product." That was then, this is now.

This might be one way. Have you added your name to this petition?

Cardinal Newman Society Petition for Fr. Fession

I wasn't sure whether signing it would help or make things worse for him. Then I looked through the signatures and saw that Dr. Ralph McInerny signed it. I trust his discernment.

That was probably when the Jesuits were still a proud and honorable order. Today they in large part just a bunch of liberals. The exceptions are men like Fr. Fessio and his friends who have tried to fight the growing tide of liberalism in the Jesuit order. But many of those middle aged Jesuits will die of AIDS soon as a result of their lifestyles, so maybe there will be a chance to reclaim the order.
