God's Soldiers

Více o knize

The Society of Jesus, known as Jesuits, has a complex and controversial history marked by both reverence and vilification. They have been involved in significant global missions, from founding haciendas in Mexico to exploring major rivers and serving as advisors to emperors in China. Their legacy includes a mix of saints and martyrs, as well as notable contributions to science, evidenced by thirty-five lunar craters named after Jesuit scientists. This duality of admiration and disdain sets them apart from other religious orders throughout history.
