The Jesuits: Nearing the End is a study of the mistakes made by the Society of Jesus ("the Jesuits") over the past century up to early 2025, leading to its drastic decline numerically, theologically, and morally. Chief architects of the self-inflicted decline were theologian Karl Rahner, S.J. who led most of the Society after the Second Vatican Council into the many condemned heresies of modernism, and Pedro Arrupe, S.J., superior general of the Society who "modernized" Jesuit seminary formation and replaced the Society's missionary evangelization apostolate with a new mission--an a-religious ...
The Jesuits: Nearing the End is a study of the mistakes made by the Society of Jesus ("the Jesuits") over the past century up to early 2025, leading to its drastic decline numerically, theologically, and morally. Chief architects of the self-inflicted decline were theologian Karl Rahner, S.J. who led most of the Society after the Second Vatican Council into the many condemned heresies of modernism, and Pedro Arrupe, S.J., superior general of the Society who "modernized" Jesuit seminary formation and replaced the Society's missionary evangelization apostolate with a new mission--an a-religious humanitarianism called social justice that extended even to liberation war involvement. These tragic mistakes were carried to the Society's many universities and high schools, to many clergy and hierarchy in the wider Catholic Church, and to the papacy and legacy of Jesuit Pope Francis. In several hundred quotes and citations, the author enlists the authority of over one hundred fifty scholars. Relevant points of doctrinal and moral theology are thoroughly explained in an accessible manner for Catholics at all levels of participation in Catholic life. The Church desperately needs the reform of what was once her most influential religious order. What scholars say about The Jesuits: Nearing the End: "It is not the least of the merits of Stephen Morrissey's wide-ranging and deeply probing work to catalog exhaustively the contrasts and contradictions between the 'unreformed' Jesuits and their modern(ized) descendants who often have no more than a name in common. Fr. Pedro Arrupe's betrayal of the Ignatian vision, Rahner's and Teilhard's betrayal of theology, the Society's betrayal of the Sacred Heart, the emergence and dominance of Jesuit progressivism and its culmination in the pontificate of Jorge Mario Bergoglio, SJ, are some of the key themes pursued in these riveting pages, documented from source after source in a crescendo of critique." --Peter Kwasniewski, Ph.D., Author of Tradition & Sanity "In a time of widespread confusion and ideological drift within the Church, this book courageously exposes the role that the leaders of the Society of Jesus played in contributing to this confusion through their embrace of a duplicitous reading of the "spirit of Vatican II" to justify unwarranted reforms in pursuit of modernity. Identifying the Jesuit perpetrators and suggesting their motivation, Morrissey's book is a must-read for Catholics trying to understand how the once faithful Order lost its way." -- Dr. Anne Hendershott, Professor of Sociology, Franciscan University of Steubenville. "Stephen Morrissey's book The Jesuits: Nearing the End is both a scholarly achievement and a delight to read as a Catholic. It is well-written and well-argued, evidencing a thorough degree of scholarly research."-- Dr. Charles James, Professor of Philosophy, retired, St. Patrick's Seminary.
