I recently came across a video after doing some research into the Orthodox church in which a friar was telling jokes about Jesuits and the like and I literally did not understand a single one of the jokes.

Could anyone who knows more about these orders explain the historical/doctrinal reasons for these jokes to someone who isn't well versed the Church?

Here's a list but im going to post a specific joke in the thread: https://www.ignatianspirituality.com/dotmagis-blog/more-jesuit-jokes/

A Dominican and a Franciscan both die and go to heaven. Standing before the pearly gates St Peter checks his list and says "Ah here you are! Let me go make sure your accommodations are ready."

Then, all of a sudden, choirs start singing and angles come out and the saints start chanting the Dominicans name. Saint Thomas Aquinas, St Dominic and the Virgin Mary herself greet the Dominican on a cloud and say "come brother, let us take you to our lord" and the Dominican flies off on a cloud with them

The Franciscan is left dumbstruck and wonders in anticipation which saints will come to meet him! So he sits there and he waits… and waits… and a few hours go by and he gets impatient when suddenly a friar comes and finds him

"Oh you're still here? come on come on…" and takes him through the gates and the Franciscan asks "wait which saints would greet me? I was expecting Francis and Anthony and Bonaventure!" and the friar sighs "Ugh, you're a Franciscan we've got hundreds of you in heaven, it's not everyday you get a Dominican!"

Seriously someone explain these jokes. I usually can understand jokes even if I don't get them but I'm completely drawing a blank here.

The joke is that dominicans don't usually go to heaven

A Franciscan and a Jesuit were arguing about whether the Franciscans or the Jesuits were more favored by God. Finally, they decided that the only one who could settle the matter was God. So they prayed, the heavens opened up, and a piece of paper came fluttering down. When they picked it up, this is what it said,

My children,

Please stop quarreling about such absurd and trivial matters.

Sincerely,

God, O.P.
