Difference between Jesuits and Dominicans: Dominicans were formed to fight the Albigensian heresy, while the Jesuits were formed to fight the Protestant heresy. So which order is better? Let's just say when was the last time you have met an Albigensian?
I converted to the Catholic Church out of an intellectual pursuit of the truth. God in His Providence sent me to the Dominicans. I think they were very helpful by their precise explanation of Doctrine. Is it any surprise that St. Thomas Aquinas is my favorite saint?
Precisely why I became interested in Catholicism. Most Protestantism in America seems so watered down, both in tradition and in teaching. I could study Catholic theology all my life and not even know half of it. An atheist once told me it is “truly the thinking man’s religion”.
A respectful joke here about the topic: WHAT ARE THE THREE THINGS GOD DOES NOT KNOW?? 1) WHAT THE JESUITS ARE DOING 2) WHAT THE DOMINICANS ARE THINKING 3) HOW MANY ORDERS OF FRANCISCAN NUNS THERE REALLY ARE I heard this decades ago......and still get a kick out of it!!
I did all my schooling with franciscans and this is a treasure I received that is with me until today The Peace Prayer Lord, make me an instrument of Thy peace; Where there is hatred, let me sow love; Where there is injury, pardon; Where there is error, the truth; Where there is doubt, the faith; Where there is despair, hope; Where there is darkness, light; And where there is sadness, joy. O Divine Master, Grant that I may not so much seek To be consoled, as to console; To be understood, as to understand; To be loved as to love. For it is in giving that we receive; It is in pardoning that we are pardoned; And it is in dying that we are born to eternal life. Amen.
As a Capuchin Franciscan I have studied alongside Dominicans, worked with a Dominican as my boss, and got my MA from a Dominican Institute. I found I agreed with Fr Pine but I would add that the Dominican Rule is the Rule of St Augustine while that of all Franciscans is that of Francis and they are very different. Dominicans, as Dominicans have told me, are essentially monastic in their structures whereas the Franciscans are not at all. In matters of thought I have heard that Dominican thought has emphasised the role of the intellect while Franciscan thought emphasises the role of the will. In addition we were right about the Immaculate Conception of our Lady.😉
Jew here. Very interesting discussion here about Dominicans and Franciscans. I always admired St. Francis. Don't know much about St. Dominic. Good interview.
@@ryanscottlogan8459 Not thinking of becoming a Catholic. I did go to a Jesuit school, Fu Jen Catholic University [in Taiwan]. I think there are lots of insights in different religions.
At my first lay Dominican inquiry meeting, they said, "If you've met one Dominican, you've met one Dominican." It's something I wasn't expecting, but this helps explain that a bit, especially Matt's succinct remark about following the Rule vs following the man.
@@sarahisatitagain it's a Latin pun, domini- canes (like canine) means "Lord's dogs" which sounds like Dominicanes which is Latin for "dominicans" :) so they acquired the name
St. Francis of Assisi attempted to imitate the life of Christ in the fullest way he could. In keeping that commitment the Franciscans have, in their various orders, embodied just how diverse and necessary the seeking to understand Christ's life and sacrifice is and how it can manifest in diverse ways to meet a variety of needs.
It's an old story but, when Aquinas was asked by Lord what is it he wants for his great works, Aquinas told Him that he only wants Him. And Lord gave him franciscan spirituality. I just made that up but still...
Surprised there was no mention of how the Franciscans hold Christ to be a human person who is simultaneously divine while the Dominicans say that Christ is not a human person but rather a divine person with a human nature. Given the Council of Chalcedon's use of the term "miahypostasis", it would seem to favour the Franciscan phrasing. However, noone before St Thomas Aquinas could explain how Christ could be one person with two natures, which is why St Cyril of Alexandria spoke of one nature (miaphysis) of God the Word incarnate.
The Dominicans taught me about the Catholic Faith, resulting in my conversion, so I'm on Team Dominican. Besides, my favorite Saint is a Dominican - Thomas Aquinas.

Fr. Pine , you spoke very fast on this talk about the difference between S. Francis and our Fr. Dominic. However, I listened 3 times because looks you are very knowledgeable on the subject. Thank you very much. GOD bless.
I just look at it as Dominicans are educated teachers as the defenders of orthodoxy, especially as priests, and Franciscans are cool bearded hippy guys who make music and play basketball to evangelize and aid the poor
Love the analysis, found it both illuminating and interesting, and ultimately learned quite a bit in a very short amount of time. Thank you for the knowledge.
Ave MARÍA🌹🌷🌹 Saints Francis of Assisi, Dominic/Martin de Porres & Ignatius of Loyola, please pray with us and for us. Pax et Bonum, love of the Cross be with you
Another great one, as usual!! Next time you want to do a comparison between Dominicans and Franciscans, though, why don't you invite Fr. Casey Cole, OFM of the RUclips channel _Breaking_ _In_ _the_ _Habit_ to have a discussion with Fr. Pine?
There a lot of diferent forms of piety and devotion. No one can fulfill all of them. By reading a couple of books on the life of the Saints and the works of the Saints by themselves, one quickly comes to realize that. Most people look at catholicism from the perspective of Dogma, by wich one may picture it as monolith of doctrine, thus forgetting the huge variety of mindsets and disposition among them, specially at the medieval Scholastic period. After all, what the reason for so many councils? Under the label of catholic anyone may find much more than usually suspected at first sight.
Old joke... How are Dominicans and Jesuits alike? Answer: Both are highly educated preaching and educating orders to combat the major heresies of their founding eras; in the Dominican's case, the Albigensian Cathars and in the Jesuits' case, Protestantism. How do Dominicans and Jesuits differ? Answer: Results. There are NO Albigensian Cathars.
That's hilarious! I know a lutheran greek lecturer who was kicked out of a jesuit seminary because he rejected active homosexual ministry (gay priest/pastors); it does feel the jesuits have changed direction
@@j.g.4942 my theory is even while the anti-modernist oath of Pius IX was still in effect, Jesuits got special dispensation to study it supposely to know how to refute it but a critical percentage ended up being "converted", and in succeeding generations, the radicals boosted like minded brothers over the more orthodox, including the lavender mafia as witnessed by the McCarrick fiasco
I do love and deeply respect Fr. Gregory Pine, so definitely no shade, but I've got to say, as studious as he is, I'm surprised, saddened and slightly but charitably disappointed in his lack of information and story of the life of Saint Dominic. There are some beautiful and excellent writings and biographies that tell us of his life! He's my confirmation Saint, so I've tried to go out of my way to learn more of his story, and haven't read as much as I could or should, but I'm surprised that Fr. Gregory hasn't learned much of his hagiography
But these are all technical terms.... For example the total number of Ordained Priests in the Franciscan Order will certainly go 4 times greater than the total number of Dominicans. Apart from all these differences they are Brothers... like Dominc and Francis were in deep Friendship..
Both friars make wows os poverty, obedience and chastity. They are not laypersons, they are friars or monks of minor friars.. Alright, Saint Francis and Saint Dominic had different charismas. They both were Spaniards. Both orders are a blessing for the Catholic Church. They have Been working for 800 years. Saint Ignatius was also Spanish and his life was exciting to learn from. The Company of Jesus is another huge gift from God to the Church. He was so certain that our Lord would provide that he didn’t care about financing or having a cent, the three of them started their projects without a penny.Their work and Institutions are still there , alive and kicking, unlike other human or political enterprises. The same applies to Saint Theresa of Kolkata, Saint Josemaria (this organization is composed of laypersons, they are not monks or nuns) Saint Faustina Kowalska, Saint Benedict and the Cistercians. And many more.They are the work of God, not human endeavours.

The Peace Prayer
Lord, make me an instrument of Thy peace;
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
Where there is injury, pardon;
Where there is error, the truth;
Where there is doubt, the faith;
Where there is despair, hope;
Where there is darkness, light;
And where there is sadness, joy.
O Divine Master,
Grant that I may not so much seek
To be consoled, as to console;
To be understood, as to understand;
To be loved as to love.
For it is in giving that we receive;
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned;
And it is in dying that we are born to eternal life. Amen.
This pray is so beautiful, but if I hear it as a song I will cry immediately. It moves me beyond explanations.
