Jesuit constitution in "black letter" (Walther's warning vs AI gods, Excursus 2A)

Jesuit seal (Wikipedia)

     In the previous series on Walther's essays to the Western District, Part AG11b (Table of Contents in Part AG1a) (p. 43) presented Walther's history of the Society of Jesuits. In America today, their are 28 Jesuit universities, according to their association AJCU. A US & World News article quoted one official saying: “What makes a Jesuit university distinctive, even among other Catholic universities, is the spirituality that is the spirit of the Jesuit order”. So what is this Jesuit "spirituality"?

      I asked Google's Gemini AI tool the following: "Is there a Jesuit clause where a superior can order another Jesuit to sin?", to which it answered (emphasis in the original answer): 

"No, there's no Jesuit clause allowing superiors to command sin, as it contradicts fundamental Catholic teaching and Jesuit principles".

Is this true?

      When one attempts to ask the "AI gods" about the evil actions of this group, one is faced with only charges of prejudice, or worse, and they then proceed to mitigate the dark side of the Jesuits. (Only Grok even mentioned what is to follow.) But Walther had hard evidence of their darkness, similar to what the legal profession calls "black-letter law".

      Walther quotes not from a Protestant writing against the Jesuits but from their own publication that presents their "constitution". Although I have recently updated my "Preuss7" blog post to provide the original Latin version that Walther translated, I want to give that piece it's own blog post so that it may be presented in all it's (dark) glory.

      Under the sub-section "That the Constitutions Do Not Impose the Obligation of Sin" (Quod Constitutiones peccati obligatlionem non inducunt), the Latin text states on pp. 414-415:

Um exoptet Societas universas suas Constitutiones, Declarationes, ac vivendi ordinem, omnino justa nostrum Institutum, nihil ulla in re declinando, observari; optet etiam nihilominus suos omnes securos esse, vel certe adjuvari, ne in laqueum ullius peccati, quod ex vi Constitutionum hujusimodi aut & Obedientiae, nullas Constitutiones, Declarationes, vel ordinem ullum <page 415> vivendi, posse obligationem ad peccatum mortale vel veniale inducere; nisi Superior ea in Nomine Domini Nostri JESU Christi, vel in virtute Obedientiae juberet: quod in rebus, vel personis illis, in quibus judicabitur, quod ad particulare uniuscujusque, vel ad universale bonum multum conveniet, fieri poterit: & loco timoris offensae, succedat amor & desiderium omnis perfectionis; & ut major gloria & laus Christi Creatoris, ac Domini Nostri consequatur.

Putting this through various Latin translators, this comes out reading this (my emphasis):

Therefore, may the Society desire that all its Constitutions, Declarations, and the order of living be observed in their entirety, in complete conformity with our Institute, without deviating in any matter; may also wish, nevertheless, that all its members be secure, or at least be helped, so that they may not fall into the snare of any sin, which, by the force of such Constitutions or of Obedience, no Constitutions, Declarations, or any order of living <page 415> can induce an obligation to a mortal or venial sin; unless the Superior should command it in the Name of our Lord JESUS Christ, or in virtue of Obedience: which may be done in those things, or persons, in which it shall be judged to be very convenient for the particular good of each, or for the universal good; and that in place of the fear of offense, love and desire of all perfection may succeed; and that the greater glory and praise of Christ the Creator and our Lord may be accomplished.

So while the Jesuits promote the notion that they "Do Not Impose the Obligation of Sin", yet in this very sub-section they do just that with their exception clause "unless the Superior should command it in the Name of our Lord JESUS Christ". That is their "spirituality". How did I find this out? By Walther's publishing of this exception in his essay on Ed. Preuss's apostacy from the Lutheran faith to the Roman Catholic/Papist faith! And Walther hammers home the Jesuit principle:

“The superiors can make it binding to sin in the power of obedience, if this brings many benefits”.

Let the Artificial Intelligence "gods" refute this "black letter" principle of the Jesuits. I will take Walther's warnings, and the Jesuits own publication, over AI nonsense any day. — In Part B of this Excursus 2B, we expand on Walther's history of the Jesuits that was first mentioned in Part AG11a previously.
