Jesuits of my generation often do a real injustice to our younger brethren, for instance, by applying to them labels borrowed from the debates of the 1960s that have long outlived their applicability;
as a result, we fail to perceive where the Spirit is really moving in the Church of today and shaping the Society of Jesus of tomorrow.
The facile use of labels can undermine mutual trust and hinder the common life of prayer and spiritual conversation.
