Reading about the first Jesuits who entered Tibet. I'm perplexed really. The level of erudition the Jesuits had is really unlike any other group of intellectuals.
These men entered Tibet, China and a number of other countries and managed to learn the language ( with a near native proficiency level ), study these cultures like modern anthropologists, dig deep into their canon ( and with such a great degree of understanding that scholars today have to agree with their insights and conclusions ) and even be skillful engineers and artists at the courts.
Probably the scholastic background and evangelizing to places where no one really wants to go.
Too bad they're all a bunch of modernists and homosexualists now.
Look at this faggot.

Jesuits were literally all Jewish
Isaac Walker
>How come Jesuits are so based? nofap
Nathan Butler
Funny how plebs always turn those above them into the embodiment of evil. It's their only tool to gain power: instill fear and hatred into their fellow plebs so they become a lynch mob at some point.
Jack Hall
Jesuits are cucks just like the current Jesuit pope
Jaxon Morgan
Jesuits literally did nothing else but scholarship.
Also they were very open minded, and weren't MUH FIRE AND BRIMSTON AND PAGANSHIIIITS!!! in their preaching/worldview.
Jose Reyes
Because the Jesuits had really, really high standards among their members in terms of who can go on missions, and not everyone can or wanted to join. Jesuit formation often took more than a decade of ones life.
Brandon King
>and weren't MUH FIRE AND BRIMSTON AND PAGANSHIIIITS!!!
Nah, they were like that, thankfully.
Austin White
Lelno. Otherwise they wouldve failed in China, Japan, the Philippines, and India.
They used Confucian morality and Chinese rites to convert millions of Chinese during the Ming/Qing. And guess what? They were condemned by the Pope for it, and the Pope ordering the Chinese Emperor around pissed of the Emperor and ordered all Catholic Missionaries out, reversing 200 years worth of work,
Christian Bell
I guess they weren't really the good guys after all.
Leo Turner
Why do anons venerate ancient scholars and shit all over modern ones?
Nathan Russell
Because there are no scholars in the modern age.
Angel Flores
They still believed that Chinese and Japanese ancestors were in hell and that people who rejected the church would wind up in hell also.
Jordan Robinson
>They still believed that Chinese and Japanese ancestors Sauce. Because such beliefs are protestant as fuck.
Asher Reed
>Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
Justin Hall
They were condemned by the Pope because jesuits told the chinese that ancestor worship was acceptable. It isnt.
Ian Sanchez
This. All we have is 'specialists' with literal narrow minds scoffing at any field that isn't theirs.
Levi Cox
I love this protestant tier puritinical fanaticism.
Go spawn some more sola scriptura sects in your heretical swamp.
Sebastian Fisher
Because in modern times you actually got to specialize in something due to the big amount of knowledge there is in there? Also, shouldn't Stephen Hawking count as a Scholar?
Christopher Reyes
They have demonic assistance.
Jayden Long
>muh church and muh lady are immaculate
Jace Bailey
Stephen Hawking is an overrated joke. He says scientism tier crap about philosophy for starters.
Jeremiah White
>Scientism Opinion disregarded.
Michael Turner
Pagans should be forgiven for their ignorance. No mercy for heretics though.

Aren't those autist shoes hot shit now?
Leo Carter
Stop triggering me, knave.
Kevin Brooks
Yeah, sorry about that. Went just a LITTLE TOO FAR.
Oliver Sullivan
>Proteshits get off to the Mother of God taking someone else's dick
Fucking cuck fetishists the lot of them. Even fucking Luther defended Mary's perpetual virginity.
Christopher Scott
>waiting for muh dick There's making fun of real beliefs and then there's this.
Parker Sanchez
They really believed that converting souls to the faith was the absolute priority.
Dominic Ramirez
Isn't that what all christians and muslims believe?
Kayden Hall
Everything on God's Earth is a manifestation of God, ergo everything on Earth is glorious.
>nothing else but scholarship. They were the first modern intelligence service and meddled in international affairs. Also they built a proto-socialist mission zone in South America.
Kayden Cooper
The pope's also said it's totally possible that aliens may not have experienced original sin.
Chase James
I love the fact that this whole idea started with Augustine thinking about extending the economy of salvation to a dog-headed people in India.
/x/ tier cryptozoology will be the reason aliens will be saved.

Gaius Julius Caesar was the Pope at one time. Do you man this Pope?
Alexander Wood
I think it was JP2.
Kevin Young
Have fun in hell, proddy.
Jack Lee
Yeah, he was a Catholic. And he hated Jews. And Mary was a Jew.
Alexander Brooks
Not for the famous part of his life.
Samuel Richardson
The Pope himself said what the Jesuits were doing was wrong. How could following that statement be considered Protestant logic?
Adam Wood
All throughout. He hated Jews because he was a catholic, then he hated Jews because they would not accept him into their society, then he wrote On The Jews And Their Lies, a book that inspired Hitler.
Kayden Ross
Catholics do not think or reason. They have placed themselves under the authority of their evil empire and listen only to people who outrank them.
Reasoning with them is futile. Jesuit mind control techniques were perfected centuries ago.
Hudson Nelson
>Hate the Jews because he wasn a Catholic You don't have to hate Jews just because you are or were a Catholic though.

Go preach "the truth" to them then if you care so much.
