"I know there were even meetings between prelates who thought the pope was more seriously ill than what was being said. They were preparing the conclave."
This is what Francis – who speakes so much about “discernment” – thought 53 Slovak Jesuits needed to hear during his meeting with them in the Nunciature in Bratislava (September 13).
"I am still alive, despite the fact that some wanted me dead," he continued in the same vein according Father Antonio Spadaro talking to LaStampa.it.

“Jesuits aren’t supposed to be in positions of authority,” said the Rev. Joseph Fessio, a Jesuit and founder of Ignatius Press. “On the other hand, they’re supposed to be obedient to the church.”
