This is a group of catholic extremists with a major mission to oppose marriage equality for LGBT American citizens. High pressure money begs to organize public actions to bully LGBT Americans. It's very cult like with terrible charity ratings. I'll never give another dime to the Catholic Loons again.

I would like to point out that "FaithfulRC" uses information from www.unitypublishing.com, which in itself is a cult, anti-Catholic, and deceptive. They deny the Cross of our Lord and use "Christian" language to draw in the unsuspecting.

By their fruits you shall know them. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? Matthew 7:16-20

I've known them for over 25 years. Every full-time volunteer is a devout Catholic--Daily recitation of the rosary is encourage, as well as daily Mass. Most, if not ALL have made the St. Louis de Montfort's Way of Total Consecration to Jesus through Mary--They are as dedicated and faithful Catholics as you could ever hope to meet​-some even putting off worldly careers to be involved with Catholic action full time.

They have been at the forefront of many battles promoting Catholic Family values, the sanctity of marriage​ ​on college campuses (despite much opposition) and sometimes ​to the detriment of their own personal safety.​ They have an anti-blasphemy campaign and have gathered hundreds of thousands of signatures protesting films, art exhibits, plays, blatantly attacking ​Christ, His Holy Mother, and the Church.​​ They have launched hundreds of campaigns encouraging Catholics to mobilize and resist many accepted social and moral evils.
They stand for Sanctity of marriage and human life ; they've been a public presence that the March for Life in DC since the first one in the 1970's. And ....the list goes on and on and on.

There is nothing secretive about their activities. See for yourself-- Go to their website, read the literature and see their fruits.

My wife & I have been affiliated with The American TFP for over 12 years & must say that we are profoundly impressed by the TFP members whom we have had the opportunity to meet over these many years. They are extremely dedicated to the Roman Catholic Church & to the traditions that make up the Church, along with their incredible support for family values & private property, the first thing that communist/socialist governments take away from the people when they gain control of a country. They are very open in everything that they do, as was Our Lord, to the extent that they do tend to attract detractors, as did Our Lord, & as would any organization that stands up for the truth & for Catholic values that are so sadly being set aside today. We have worked with the TFP for 10 years sponsoring local Rosary Crusades which have the intent of encouraging individuals & families to pray the rosary daily as requested by Our Lady at Fatima. They also have an incredible program to promote the messages that Our Lady gave to the 3 shepherd children at Fatima in 1917, 99 years ago this May 13th. Their current campaign is to promote family values by supporting traditional marriage, that is marriage between one man & one woman as ordained by God, starting with our first parents in the Garden of Eden. When you support such "controversial" issues today, yes, you do tend to make some enemies, enemies that are also enemies of the Catholic Church. We have never found such an outstanding organization of men & women in our 65+ years of experience as Roman Catholics. If you have a true love for the Church, for the traditional values of the Church as taught by Our Lord some 2,000+ years ago, & if you are a true supporter of democratic values then you will be extremely impressed with The American TFP.

I met all the TFP members in person and can attest that they live modestly and devote their lives to the defense of Christian Civilization. They work hard and produce excellent materials and activities.

I'd like to comment on the "secretive" nature of TFP, which is a part of the Foundation for a Christian Civilization: what a lie! My goodness, what does it take to be considered "open" and not secretive. TFP's books and writings are voluminous and the Church has never censored one thing. In fact, they have written many glowing letters of praise for several of TFP's publications. Their books and magazines and websites are readily available to all honest souls. I've known this group for 30 years and spent time with them in their sister organizations' offices and housing in Europe and Brazil. They've let me attend their weekly general meetings, been a free, totally unwatched, roaming guest in their offices, etc... Anyone can smile and be nice to you. If you want to know what an organization is all about, read what they write, because they can't wriggle out of it or 'spin' it. TFP and it's America Needs Fatima campaign promote the public practice of virtue according to the traditional and contemporary magistirium of the Catholic Church. No bishop has EVER challenged, in writing, any of the publications of the TFP. Why? because what the TFP believes and preaches is 100% in accordance with Catholic doctrine. If you're against that, especially if you're inside the Church, you can't actually put your wrong headedness in writing, so you whisper your calumnies and never WRITE a response....typical methodology of those 'whited sepulchers'. Because they can't convict TFP of sin, they whisper calumnies and untruths for over 50 years now.

I had to laugh when I read the negative comments by anonymous posters, but then I thought: what if in today's world...just because they're ONLINE...such comments are taken as deified, necessarily known to the organization, and thus "true"?

Well, readers certainly can ask the foundation at their own website(s) if they want to know who knows what.

As to being created by a "secretive" leader, that man was a Brazilian lawyer and professor as one can view reasonably reliably (at the moment!) at Wikipedia at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Society_for_the_Defense_of_Tradition,_Family_and_Property .

It may be that as in original day, around the globe State-regulated if not appointed "bishops" don't approve of such talk...but then, it would be such TALK, no matter if a Muslim, LBGT, Buddhist, Jew, or any person of any "-ism" or bent disapproved! Consider also neither the USCCB nor Vatican, for example, disapproves of the foundation.

This is intended to submit a counterpoint to knee-jerk and possibly sometimes prank "critics" offering no details of self-opinions, and I neither encourage nor discourage the public about this foundation.

I am very grateful for their sponsorship of Rosary Rallies in the public square, something I've wanted to do for years.
