Jesuit Quotes

• Los jesuitas son una organización MILITAR, no una orden religiosa. Su jefe es un general de un ejército, no el simple padre abad de un monasterio. Y el objetivo de esta organización es el poder - el poder en su ejercicio más despótico - el poder absoluto, el poder universal, el poder de controlar el mundo por la voluntad de un solo hombre. El jesuitismo es el más absoluto de los despotismos - y al mismo tiempo el mayor y más enorme de los abusos.

• Jesuits make a vow of obedience to the Pope. But if the Pope is a Jesuit, perhaps he has to make a vow of obedience to the General of the Jesuits! I don’t know how to resolve this … I feel a Jesuit in my spirituality; in the spirituality of the Exercises, the spirituality deep in my heart.

• Mi Historia de los Jesuitas está en cuatro volúmenes.... Esta sociedad ha sido una calamidad mayor para la humanidad que la Revolución Francesa, o el despotismo o la ideología de Napoleón. Ha obstruido el progreso de la reforma y la mejora de la mente humana en la sociedad mucho más tiempo y de forma más fatal.

• The Illuminati Order was preceded in the 1500's in Spain by the 'Alumbrados', a Christian heresy started by crypto Jews called 'Marranos'. The founder of the Jesuit Order, Ignatius of Loyola, was a Marrano / Alumbrado. Thus when people today argue whether it is the Jesuits or Zionists or Illuminati who are responsible for our troubles, they are really talking about the same beast.

• No me gusta la resurrección tardía de los jesuitas. . . . Si alguna vez una congregación de hombres pudo merecer la perdición eterna en la tierra, y en el infierno, según estos historiadores, aunque, como Pascal, verdaderos católicos, es esta compañía de Loyolas.

• Mi historia de los jesuitas no está escrita con elegancia, pero está apoyada por autoridades incuestionables, es muy particular y muy horrible. Su restauración es, en efecto, "un paso hacia las tinieblas", la crueldad, la perfidia, el despotismo, la muerte y ojalá estuviéramos fuera del peligro del fanatismo y del jesuitismo.

• No me gusta la reaparición de los jesuitas.... ¿No tendremos aquí enjambres regulares de ellos, en tantos disfraces como sólo un rey de los gitanos puede asumir, vestidos como impresores, editores, escritores y maestros de escuela? Si alguna vez hubo un cuerpo de hombres que mereciera la condenación en la tierra y en el infierno, es esta sociedad de Loyola. Sin embargo, nuestro sistema de tolerancia religiosa nos obliga a ofrecerles asilo.

• The Thirty Years' War, 1618-1648, was a series of conflicts that became the last great struggle of religious wars in Europe. It was fought almost exclusively on German soil...but before the war ended, it involved most of the nations of Europe. The underlying cause of the war was the deep-seated hostility between the German Protestants and German Catholics - with the Jesuits and Cardinal Richelieu, who was the real ruler of France, fanning the fires to accomplish their ends.

• In the agreement to rescue Rome [i.e., the Roman Catholic Church's hierarchy] from the predicament of losing its world control to Protestantism, and to preserve the spiritual and temporal supremacy which the popes [had] 'usurped' during the Middle Ages, Rome now 'sold' the [Roman Catholic] Church to the Society of Jesus [i.e., the Jesuits]; in essence the popes surrendered themselves into their hands.

• A Jesuit once wrote a note to Father Arrupe, his superior general, asking him about the relative value of communism, socialism and capitalism. Father Arrupe gave him a lovely reply. He said, "A system is about as good or as bad as the people who use it." People with golden hearts would make capitalism or communism or socialism work beautifully.

• It was served of the Jesuits, that they constantly inculcated a thorough contempt of worldly things in their doctrines, but eagerly grasped at them in their lives. They were wise in their generation; for they cried down worldly things because they wanted to obtain them, and cried up spiritual things, because they wanted to dispose of them.

• The Jesuits were good educators, exceptional teachers. In an era and in a society where freedom of speech was not held in high regard, of course, that the discourse be focused on what they were teaching, but we were able to go beyond this framework without incurring too great a risk.
