Jesuits, sui generis

J. Peter Nixon, over on Commonweal's excellent blog, has a interesting commentary on why the Jesuits have been so controversial over the centuries.

Nixon says "even more sympathetic Catholics ... may be inclined to wonder why the Society is so often in the thick of intra-ecclesial controversy. By way of answer, I’d like to suggest three ideas as food for thought."
