MeteorShower Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 I'm sure you've all heard this one before... Two men considering a religious vocation were having a conversation. “What is similar about the Jesuit and Dominican Orders? †the one asked. The second replied, “Well, they were both founded by Spaniards — St. Dominic for the Dominicans, and St. Ignatius of Loyola for the Jesuits. They were also both founded to combat heresy — the Dominicans to fight the Albigensians, and the Jesuits to fight the Protestants.†“What is different about the Jesuit and Dominican Orders?†“Met any Albigensians lately?†Dominicans are amazing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DiscerningCatholic Posted September 10, 2012 Author Share Posted September 10, 2012 I haz new joke: Two sisters were eating at a resturant. They ordered water with lemon. The waitress brought them water and said, "It's free of charge, but we'll have to charge you extra if you turn it into wine." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
