>don't believe in "progress" except through the development of a personal, moral worldview
>dislike cars and planes
>am not interested in politics because why bother these days
>pretty much just want to read and write
>hate dancing/partying, etc
>think most of the world is going to burn in eternal hellfire and am doing my best to avoid the same

The Jesuits have been preserving the faith as their only goal since they founded themselves and the counter Reformation movement within the Church. Their main missions have been evangelism, theological contemplation, and sciences.
They've had great success in all three of these fields over their history and just because the pope is more liberal on some issues than you like doesn't mean you should reject the whole order.

I will say that the order probably does promote a more liberal type of Catholicism than you like, but their institutions of learning will be true catechism and encourage a deeper inter Catholic discourse between factions within the faith that you wouldn't get at a secular institution where they lump all of us Catholics in one monolithic world view.

I'm not saying you have to buy in to all their teachings, but you should have an open mind concerning all the Catholic theologians because they've spent their life studying this stuff. That's how I look at it anyways

>> No.10564162

>>10564140
I feel like I have the same difficulty. For a while I was seriously considering a monastery for a while, and I long for the peace and quiet, but I feel my goals are a bit more "academic". I feel closer to a Rene Girard or a Weininger than a priest.

You can do great academic works as a member of orders. Some even encourage it. Take the Benedictine orders for instance, their motto translates to "prayer and work" and they encourage you to labor intensely in a field of study and use your faith to guide your work. Sister Noella is an American nun in this order with a doctorate in microbiology that she uses help her understand God's creation great and small and to make cheese at her convent from the small herd of cows they manage.

imperial college in the uk. barely any women and the women that are there are generally east asians who couldn't care less about their appearance, for fear it would take away precious study time
>listen to gregorian chant
>like classical music some times

might conflict with

Bud just go to the best college you get in to, even at the most liberal shitholes you will meet a handful of people who share your values. Just associate with them. Also academia and conservatism are incompatible, so don’t bother looking for a university that isn’t JEWED.

A man of your tastes might fit in well in our anime club. Classy attire only--anime after all is the finest and most emotional of artforms and not corrupted by the decline of western society. We meet --if you dare find us, sir -- in the a far tucked away corner of the --it pains me to say it -- student center. Despite its proximity to the degenerate college philistines it now (thanks to our great efforts, teehee) boasts a number of framed posters and a chabudai around which our members have placed our cleanest dakimakura. Crunchyroll and netflix abound in our traditional lair far from the madding crowd of passing fads like politics, dancing, "progress," and cars. (Trains, in fact, are the far superior transportation method and the mark of truly advanced nations.) f you so choose to join our ranks, bring a bottle of your finest red and a heart ready to be tamed by the emotional discipline of superior intellects.
