- Catholic_League_(U.S.) abstract "The Catholic League for Religious and Civil Rights, often shortened to the Catholic League, is an American Catholic anti-defamation and civil rights organization. The Catholic League states that it \"defends the right of Catholics – lay and clergy alike – to participate in American public life without defamation or discrimination.\" The Catholic League states that it is \"motivated by the letter and the spirit of the First Amendment ...to safeguard both the religious freedom rights and the free speech rights of Catholics whenever and wherever they are threatened.\" According to the Encyclopedia of American Religion and Politics, the League \"is regarded by many as the preeminent organization representing the views of American lay Catholics.\"Founded in 1973 by Jesuit priest Virgil Blum, the Catholic League was formed to counter discrimination against Catholics in the U.S. government and in popular culture. The low-profile group initiated public education campaigns and some lawsuits. In 1993 the group became much more aggressive with a new president, former sociology professor William A. Donohue, who also increased its size to become the largest Catholic advocacy organization in America. The Catholic League is known for press releases about what it views as anti-Catholic and anti-Christian themes in mass media.The Catholic League has taken a stand against anything they perceive as anti-Catholic, including the entertainment industry, certain art exhibits, school programs for sex education, government-funded contraception and abortion, media bias, restrictions against pro-life activism, and restrictions on religious schools. It publishes a journal, Catalyst, and operates a website.The League under Donohue's leadership is criticized for its conservatism and for its combative responses to high-profile media stories. Besides education campaigns, the group issues condemnations, initiates boycotts and protests, defends priests against accusations of child sexual abuse, fights proposed legislation and threatens legal action against what it sees as bigotry against Catholics, irreverence against religious figures, and attacks on Catholic dogma. However, the Catholic League stresses that \"it does not speak authoritatively for the Church as a whole.\"In December 2013, Donohue and the Catholic League were taken to court by Jon David Couzens, Jr., who says he was a victim of priest rape in Kansas City. The suit claims defamation by Donohue, with Donohue alleging past crimes and questioning the character of Couzens.".
