jesuit

Roman Catholic Church. A member of the Society of Jesus.
often jesuit One given to subtle casuistry.

F. J'esuite, Sp. Jesuita: cf. It. Gesuita. 1. (R. C. Ch.) One of a religious order founded by Ignatius Loyola, and approved in 1540, under the title of The Society of Jesus.

Note: The order consists of Scholastics, the Professed, the Spiritual Coadjutors, and the Temporal Coadjutors or Lay Brothers. The Jesuit novice after two years becomes a Scholastic, and takes his first vows of poverty, chastity, and obedience simply. Some years after, at the close of a second novitiate, he takes his second vows and is ranked among the Coadjutors or Professed. The Professed are bound by a fourth vow, from which only the pope can dispense, requiring them to go wherever the pope may send them for missionary duty. The Coadjutors teach in the schools, and are employed in general missionary labors. The Society is governed by a General who holds office for life. He has associated with him ``Assistants'' (five at the present time), representing different provinces. The Society was first established in the United States in 1807. The Jesuits have displayed in their enterprises a high degree of zeal, learning, and skill, but, by their enemies, have been generally reputed to use art and intrigue in promoting or accomplishing their purposes, whence the words Jesuit, Jesuitical, and the like, have acquired an opprobrious sense.

The Project Hate MCMXCIX

A Christian-hating band all the way. It's closest to the genre of grindcore/black metal I think. Although I'm indifferent/in dischord with the messages they employ, (The Project Hate) have the best music I have ever heard.
The Project Hate has good melodies. Search Google.com for ------>Project Hate MCMXCIX<------- The OFFICIAL website only.
