Jorge Bergoglio of Argentina - Pope Francis
My wife is excited as he is the first Jesuit Pope. My Italian buddy said that he has a very strong Italian upbringing and his parents/grandparents were Italian.
Anyway, can someone more in tune with Catholic history explain to me better what a 'Jesuit' is specifically?
“You know the world is going crazy when the best rapper is a white guy, the best golfer is a black guy, the tallest guy in the NBA is Chinese, the Swiss hold the America's Cup, France is accusing the U.S. of arrogance, Germany doesn't want to go to war, and the three most powerful men in America are named "Bush", "Dick", and "Colin." Need I say more?” - Chris Rock

Not a Catholic, but I am a fan of the Jesuits, so it is pretty cool.
If we were as industrious to become good as to make ourselves great, we should become really great by being good, and the number of valuable men would be much increased; but it is a grand mistake to think of being great without goodness; and i pronounce it as certain that there was never yet a truly great man that was not at the same time truly virtuous." - Ben Franklin
Imagine what good we can do if we all joined together, united as followers of Christ - M. Russell Ballard
