With the passing of the first Jesuitical pope, His Holiness Pope Francis, the Jesuits see no way forward in a backward looking Church under the current papacy that is reversing all the 1960’s thrust of the previous papacy.
The majority of the Jesuits, most in the late 70’s, have decided to stop vowing their fourth vow of fidelity to the current pope and will maintain it for the late Pope Francis, the first and last true pope of the Church.
The rest, some estimate about four of their youngest members will join the FSSPX.
Pope Leo has remained silent on this development, but sources close to him relate that he was heard to have said under His Holiness breath, “good riddance.”
