Re:

he distinguishes between, for example, Jesuits and Dominicans, so he's certainly got a more nuanced view
Given the current state of both Orders, there just has to be a sarcastic response to this. I'll have to think of one.

I still think I have to emphasize the triangular negative relationship between Catholicism, Liberalism and Orthodoxy. Dostoyevsky was attracted to, and reacting against, Liberalism. I am not taking you for an illiterate or a fool, but this is something that has a considerable amount of importance in some essays I am thinking of writing, and I see it as a major and possibly under-remarked feature of modern history.
