From Catholic Jokes :
    Two men considering a religious vocation were having a conversation. "What is similar about the Jesuit and Dominican Orders? " the one asked.

    The second replied, "Well, they were both founded by Spaniards -- St. Dominic for the Dominicans, and St. Ignatius of Loyola for the Jesuits. They were also both founded to combat heresy -- the Dominicans to fight the Albigensians, and the Jesuits to fight the Protestants."

    "What is different about the Jesuit and Dominican Orders?"

    "Met any Albigensians lately?"

    The Jesuit asked, "What's a novena?"
