I have a number of priest friends. Some are Jesuits. The Jesuits that I know are appalled that their order has the progressive element, and they don't like what they are seeing from Frankie.

To paint all Jesuits with the same brush stroke is unfair and really stupid.

I’ve known some wonderful Jesuits, as well as some awful ones. One of my best friends and my Adviser for some years was Fr. Francis X. Weiser, S.J. He taught at Boston College while I was at Harvard, and I asked him over a number of times to speak to members of the Harvard Catholic Club, which was being misled and abandoned by the remaining priests at the college. He was a good friend of my Aunt, and we used to have monthly gatherings with a circle of friends to discuss the True Faith.

Anyway, he was a saint, in my opinion, if not officially. You can look up the books he wrote on Amazon. Some of the best things you could read in those dismal times.
