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
