an, a founder of the anti-nuclear 
Plowshares Movement.In Latin America, the Jesuit emphasis on helping the 
poorest peoples often drew the society into political upheaval, including 
the cause of liberation theology, a Latin American-inspired view that Jesus' 
teachings imbue followers with a duty to fight for social and economic 
justice. U.S. Jesuit James Carney was killed in 1983 serving as chaplain 
to a rebel column from Honduras.Pope John Paul II, hoping to re-direct 
the religious order, took the extraordinary step in 1981 of replacing the 
Jesuit's chosen leader with his own representative. The society encompasses 
a range of outlooks, including tradition-minded men. Still, conservative 
Catholics often view Jesuits as a band of disloyal liberals. The day 
after Francis was elected, George Weigel, a John Paul biographer, wrote 
in the conservative National Review magazine that the pope "just might take 
in hand the reform of the Jesuits" that Weigel argued was never 
finished.  (Smolich rejects any suggestion that the order isn't faithful 
to the church or its teachings.)It's too early to say how these 
past conflicts could influence Francis and his relationships with the society. 
He had disavowed liberation theology as a misguided strain of Catholic tenets, 
while still maintaining a focus on the economic failings of Western-style 
capitalism and the need to close the divide between rich and poor.Jesuits 
also worry that the religious order coul
March 19, 2013: Kansas state Rep. Tom Burroughs, left, consults with Rep. 
Julie Menghini, of Pittsburg, during the House's debate on anti-abortion 
legislation at the Statehouse in Topeka, Kan.APTOPEKA, Kan.  Kansas legislators 
gave final passage to a sweeping anti-abortion measure Friday night, sending 
Gov. Sam Brownback a bill that declares life begins "at fertilization" while 
blocking tax breaks for abortion providers and banning abortions performed 
solely because of the baby's sex.The House voted 90-30 for a compromise 
version of the bill reconciling differences between the two chambers, only 
hours after the Senate approved it, 28-10. The Republican governor is a 
strong abortion opponent, and supporters of the measure expect him to sign 
it into law so that the new restrictions take effect July 1.In 
addition to the bans on tax breaks and sex-selection abortions, the bill 
prohibits abortion providers from being involved in public school sex education 
classes and spells out in more detail what information doctors must provide 
to patients seeking abortions.The measure's language that life begins "at 
fertilization" had some abortion-rights supporters worrying that it could 
be used to legally harass providers. Abortion opponents call it a statement 
of principle and not an outright ban on terminating pregnancies."The human 
is a magnificent piece of work at all stages of development, wondrous 
in every regard, from the microscopic until full de
