Four great orders

The four great orders were mentioned by the Second Council of Lyons (1274), and are:

The Dominicans, founded ca. 1216. They are also known as the "Friar Preachers," or the "Black Friars," from the black mantle ("cappa") worn over their white habit. The Dominicans were founded by St. Dominic and received papal approval from Honorius III in 1216 as the "Ordo Praedicatorum" under the Rule of St. Augustine. They became a mendicant order in 1221.

The Franciscans, founded in 1209. They are also known as the "Friars Minor" or the "Grey Friars." The Franciscans were founded by St. Francis of Assisi and received oral papal approval by Innocent III in 1209 and formal papal confirmation by Honorius III in 1223. Today the Friars Minor is composed of three branches: the OFM (Brown Franciscans), OFMConv (Grey Friars) and the OFMCap (Capuchins).

The Carmelites, founded ca. 1155.[2] They are also known as the "White Friars" because of the white cloak which covers their brown habit. They received papal approval from Honorius III in 1226 and later by Innocent IV in 1247. The Carmelites were founded as a purely contemplative order, but became mendicants in 1245. There are two types of Carmelites, those of the Ancient Observance (O.Carm.) and those of the Discalced Carmelites (O.C.D.), founded by St. Teresa of Avila in the 16th century.

The Augustinians, founded in 1244 (the "Little Union") and enlarged in 1256 (the "Grand Union"). They are also known as the "Hermits of St. Augustine," or the "Austin Friars." Their rule is based on the writings of Augustine of Hippo. The Augustinians were assembled from various groups of hermits as a mendicant order by Pope Innocent IV in 1244 (Little Union). Additional groups were added by Alexander IV in 1256 (Grand Union).

Timothy Michael Dolan (born February 6, 1950) is an American Cardinal of the Roman Catholic Church. Appointed by Pope Benedict XVI, Dolan is the tenth and current Archbishop of New York. Dolan also currently serves as the President of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops and was granted the titular position as Archpriest of Nostra Signora di Guadalupe a Monte Mario (English: Our Lady of Guadalupe of Mount Mario) in Rome.

Dolan is widely known for his conservative values and charismatic media personality. He previously served as Archbishop of Milwaukee from 2002–2009, preceded by service as an Auxiliary Bishop of St. Louis from 2001–2002. Time Magazine named Dolan one of the "100 Most Influential People in the World" for 2012.

The Pontifical University of Saint Thomas Aquinas is the Dominican university of Rome, Italy, and one of the principal pontifical universities of the world. The university is also known as the Angelicum in honor of its patron Thomas Aquinas who in the scholastic tradition has been called the Doctor Angelicus since the 15th century. The Angelicum is directly dependent on the Pope for its mandate and status as a pontifical university as outlined in the apostolic constitution Sapientia Christiana, which also clarifies the parameters of Church authority and academic freedom. The Angelicum is administered by the Order of Preachers of the Catholic Church, and is staffed by members of both the clergy and the laity. It serves both religious and lay students from around the world as the central locus of the authentic Dominican Thomist theological and philosophical tradition.

The Order of Preachers (Latin: Ordo Praedicatorum), more commonly known after the 15th century as the Dominican Order or Dominicans, is a Roman Catholic religious order founded by Saint Dominic de Guzman in France and approved by Pope Honorius III (1216–27) on 22 December 1216. Membership in the Order includes friars,[1] nuns, active sisters, and lay or secular Dominicans (formerly known as tertiaries) affiliated with the Order. A number of other names have been used to refer to both the order and its members.

In England and other countries the Dominican friars are referred to as Black Friars [Black Friars bridge made famous by the murder of a vatican banker some years back] because of the black cappa or cloak they wear over their white habits. Dominicans were Blackfriars, as opposed to Whitefriars (for example, the Carmelites) or Greyfriars (for example, Franciscans). They are also distinct from the Augustinian Friars (the Austin friars) who wear a similar habit. In France, the Dominicans are known as Jacobins, because their convent in Paris was attached to the church of Saint Jacques,[3] (St. James) Sanctus Jacobus in Latin. Their identification as Dominicans gave rise to the pun that they were the Domini canes, or Hounds of the Lord.

You have both Franciscans and Dominicans who hate the Jesuits who have subordinated them both to its Order and taken lands and wealth away from its subordinates. What we have here is nothing more than Knights Templar wrapped up in the Cloth, plain and simple. You should also find a connection somewhere to the Hashashins with families like the Aldobrandini and the Bobadilla [and the House of Borjia] both of which were behind the creation of the Jesuit Order. Also study the relationship Francis Borjia’s puppet, Ignatius Loyola had with the Hashasins. I believe what we have here is the ultimate Templar Order being a merger of the Western Templars and Middle Eastern Hashashin as one ultra powerful Order never seen before in history.

Members of the order generally carry the letters O.P. standing for Ordinis Praedicatorum, meaning of the Order of Preachers [Domincans; Timothy Dolan] , after their names. Founded to preach the Gospel and to combat heresy, the order is famed for its intellectual tradition, having produced many leading theologians and philosophers. The Dominican Order is headed by the Master of the Order, who is currently Father Bruno Cadoré.

Jacobin (politics), a member of the Jacobin club, or political radical, generally
The Jacobin, an opera by Antonín Dvořák
The Jacobin Club, a political club during the French Revolution
Jacobin (magazine), an American leftist political magazine.

Dot #2: The official timeframe of the Inquisition, according to several researchers, is 1203-1808. The TORTURE was still “on-going” in 1808 when Napoleon’s troops found underground torture chambers in Spain. Yes, the Dominicans had torture chambers under the floors of their monastery in Madrid, Spain in 1808! Dave Hunt, on page 79 of his book, “A Woman Rides the Beast” (1994), tells us the following about these Dominican torture chambers in Madrid, Spain in 1808: “The chambers were full of prisoners, all naked, many insane. The French troops, used to cruelty and blood, could not stomach the sight.”

KGB's archives afford me a glimpse at Vatican's Intelligence Service

Stanislav Lekarev, a well-placed investigative reporter and a former Soviet official, reveals the results of his heart-to-heart with a friend that still has access to the documents from KGB's 5th Chief Directorate that was also responsible for dealing with religious dissent. Despite the Holy See's curt, Jesuit-like denial of having any involvement in intelligence activities, the archives shed rare light on the Vatican's well-though-thinly-cloaked clandestine activities in USSR.

Vatican's Secret Service is well-compartmentalized into its many cover organizations conveniently subdivided by their religious activities that afford the Holy See the advantages over any other intelligence service.

The strategically important service is the responsibility of the Jesuits. The order is under the direct command of the pontiff.

The Jesuits manage information-gathering functions for the Vatican. Thus the Russian department is conveniently set up under the cover of the Congregation of the Eastern Churches, Actione Catolica, Russia Christiana, and has its operations center at the St. Georgio Institute in Medona, and at the Modesto Monastery in Seriate, a picturesque suburb of Milan.

The department that runs its agents in Russia is the mysterious Russicum, which has a legitimate appearance of any other Catholic outreach facility, recruiting into its ranks residents of Eastern Europe.

Information gathering takes place under the guise of very conventional missionary activity, a non-governmental charity work, seemingly innocent purchase of a government's archives.

The Russian desk is still run by its Vatican's former USSR directorate which bears the name of the St. Teresa Russian Catholic College.

The external and hands-on operations are also performed by the Dominican Order. The order uses its international resources to exfiltrate its agents, to discredit undesirable officials, and other cloak and dagger operations. Its low-profile department of Sodalicium Pianium is responsible for internal security, taking care of the Vatican's own heretics, and vetting out Vatican's security apparatus.

Thus Vatican has plenty of organizations to also collaborate with other intelligence agencies. Joint projects with CIA, MI6, SDECE and Mossad has been through the Sovereign Military and Hospitaller Order of St. John of Jerusalem of Rhodes and of Malta. Pinochet and the Polish Solidarnosc (Solidarity) are good examples of Vatican's intelligence networking par excellence.

More than 60 German clerics have been accused of sexually abusing minors and adults between 2000 and 2010, Germany's Roman Catholic Church says.


According to a study conducted by three German forensic centers for research, at least 66 priests had been charged with 576 cases of sexual abuse of mostly male victims during the ten-year period.

The German Bishops' Conference released the report on Friday, saying that nearly three-quarters of the 265 alleged targets of sexual misconduct were male.

The study further revealed that most of the priests found guilty of sexually abusing minors were psychologically normal.


The study was launched in April 2011 after hundreds of victims alleged that they had been sexually harassed as minors between the 1950s and 80s, creating a crisis for the church nearly two years ago.

The priests contacted the victims through the church congregation, the report found out.

Over the past years, large numbers of such scandals involving Roman priests have surfaced. The Pope has been accused of trying to cover up the scandals.

Abuse allegations have rocked the Roman Catholic Church in Germany in recent years, making thousands of disenchanted Germans leave the Church over revelations of abuse.

About 180,000 renounced their Catholicism in 2010, up 40 percent from 2009, due to the revelations of priests sexually abusing minors, the German broadcaster Deutsche Welle reported.

Pope Benedict XVI used his Christmas Day address to call for an end to bloody conflicts in Syria and Palestine and for there to be peace in the middle East.
