Exposing Jesuit Influence, Past and Present

The Jesuits have a long history of involvement with governments and politics, all the way back to their very beginning.  But before we dive into this history, as a quick refresher, the previous Jesuit article looked at the current role of a Jesuit Catholic as the US House Chaplain.  He opens meetings with a prayer, conducts ceremonies and provides guidance to the members of the House.  The government purports a separation of church and state.  All the while, they fund a Jesuit to a full-time government job.  He is fully integrated into the day to day activities of the House.  This is not the first time the Jesuits have inserted themselves into the inner workings of government.  They have been expelled from multiple countries for doing so, even by the Vatican itself!

Jesuit Chaplain – Guilty by Association

Patick Conroy Jesuit House ChaplainPatrick Conroy, a Jesuit Catholic, has been sworn back into office this week as the US House Chaplain after a couple of turbulent weeks.  Paul  Ryan met significant criticism from the Catholic members of Congress after asking for Conroy’s resignation in April.  Initially, Conroy conceded and he turned in a resignation letter.  Conroy rescinded his letter last week after receiving significant support from Nancy Pelosi and others.  His on-again, off-again position in this role has brought the House Chaplain role to the front pages.  What is this role all about and who is Patrick Conroy?  The findings are alarming and full of hypocrisy!
