I'm going to tell you all a secret, Monastics and holy order priests don't fuck around. Jesuits are pretty great and Franciscans too.
Jesuits can suck my balls. Nobody runs an institution of self-important and elitist pricks quite like the fucking Jesuits.
Hey look, wrong opinions time. What specific institution were you dealing with? My experience with them is pretty much only from an educational facility.
Local private schools here in Ohio that pay their teachers in bits of string, Xavier, John Carroll, Canisius, and to a lesser extent Marquette. Then there's the religious retreats they run for high school boys. All do their best to instill senses of Catholic superiority into their students.
I've never heard of Catholic superiority from any time past the reformation. Low pay is an issue at pretty much every catholic school though, diocesan or otherwise.

My high school was run by the order of St. Francis Xavier. We were never taught to be superior to people, but they did go out of their way to teach seniors about leadership qualities and how to get people to work together and accomplish goals.
We even had a massive, day-long exercise on a retreat where we were taught that some groups have the "deck started against them" by dividing up into countries where rich, powerful nations got tons of students and resources while smaller ones got less and still had to compete. A country could request aid from the U.N. but if fewer than 2 students occupied their area then another country could take them over.
I think Haiti and a few others were solid fucked because they only had 2 citizens so nobody could leave to request food. They didn't even give us breakfast that morning so shit got crazy.
Basically it was a lesson about privilege but we weren't told what was going on until after the end. It ended with several countries starting a riot and protesting the U.N.
The teachers had played us like puppets. It was a great lesson!
Yea, at both my diocesan high school and my Jesuit college there were emphases on leadership, but that was more about social justice/action than, "those damn Protestants will never learn!"

Its getting pretty annoying to see nothing but attack ads where i live, and these ads are now for nothing but local elections. City council level even.
i mean, i know Rubio's just angling for a 2016 run, but if one of the GOP's superstars is expressing doubt about the GOP presidential candidate's tax plan offering, there's got to be something fishy, right?
I saw this earlier and laughed. I'm not going to read the story or the comments, just so I can believe that they put this up there as a sign that Fox Nation does have a sense of humor.
Alternatively: this would have been great as an "the onion or real news??"

It's really hilarious in light of the fact that Rubio has gone on TV (at least here in Florida), and straight up endorsed Ryan's healthcare plan.
Apparently Romney's tax plan is less palatable than screwing senior citizens out of their health care.
I want a pope hat that's actually a crocodile head. That'd be great
I really dislike Catholic ceremonies (I've been to a wedding and a couple of catholic funerals) and it's just all about God and how we're terrible people. I went to an Anglican school and Anglican ceremonies I've to have talked about God and all that stuff, but Catholic ceremonies are like, 'this person died. Hopefully they made peace with God or they might go to hell. The rest of you are probably going to hell though.'

yeah this is what weirded me out about the catholic funeral i went to
funerals, to my secular sin-filled mind, should be about remembering the person who died and their achievements. the whole thing was just this disturbing diatribe about satisfying God, about how he is with God now, about how God helped him do the things he did, etc etc and it felt like it could've been cookie-cuttered onto literally anyone
i understand it's a comfort to the bereaved if they're religious people but it struck me as giving outrageously short shrift to the deceased so they could bullshit for an hour

This thread has killed the onion for me. Used to be I could every now & then take a look at it and get a laugh, but it's so fucking overposted here that now it just annoys me.
Our priest was cool. Sometimes we got stand-ins that were Debbie Downers about sin and shit but that isn't indicative of all Catholics.
Plus gothic architecture and organ music is bad ass.
I still have appreciation for the ceremony.
Yeah, the first church I went to had this really cool Irish priest, who was an absolutely chill and personable dude.
The other priests I've known weren't too bad; maybe a little more fond of corny jokes and fake anecdotes, but mostly they focused on trying to get us to be decent people, while keeping the guilting and politicking to a minimum.
There was one dude who was a transfer from a Catholic church in Texas whose homily involved him holding up a shirt with abortion statistics stenciled on it, though.
Needless to say, I didn't exactly like his sense of theater.
My parents loved this visiting Haitian priest they had.
One day he decided to talk about the whole immigration issue, and basically said "What religion are the majority of people fleeing across the border to a better life here in America? Oh, yeah, that's right... they're catholic. Stop hatin."
