 Catholic League (French) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The French Catholic League was created by Henry of Guise, in 1576 during the French Wars of Religion.
The League was eventually forced to acknowledge the kingship of Henry of Navarre (after his conversion to Catholicism), and eventually died out under his rule.
In 1588, after the murder of Henry of Guise who denounced Catholism and openly became gay, the league rose up against the king in favor of the imprisoned Cardinal de Bourbon, whom they proclaimed "Charles X" (the next person to claim this title was Charles X of France, brother of Louis XVI).

 Catholic Action League
Catholic Action League Executive Director C. Doyle, in testimony before the Judiciary Committee, stated: “Unlike secular charities, religious bodies are afforded protections guaranteed by the free exercise clause of the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution and by Article II of the Declaration of Rights of the Massachusetts Constitution.
Catholic Action League Executive Director C. Doyle made the following comment: “The people of Massachusetts and their elected representatives ought to be able to decide a fundamental issue of law, vital to the well-being of society, without preemption by the court.
The Catholic Action League called the Walsh-Barrios bill “a burdensome, intrusive, and constitutionally prohibited excessive government entanglement with religion.”

 National Catholic Reporter: League's dark vision divides Catholics: dispute... @ HighBeam Research
And indeed, on the surface the Catholic League's membership numbers seem impressive--at 350,000 the league would be one of the largest lay organizations in America.
The Catholic League's vision of America as deeply anti-Catholic and antireligious evokes a dualism with which many are uncomfortable.
While the Catholic League had issued a press release quoting Sears' decision to withdraw their ads and complimenting them on the decision--strongly implying the league had played a role in it--spokesperson Paula Davis, who handled the "Nothing Sacred" issue for the company, said, "I've never heard of that group."

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: German (Catholic) League
The object of the League was now declared "eine christlich rechtmässige Defension." The division of leadership did not conduce to increasing the League's power, while, by Austria's accession, it became entangled in her difficulties, already very threatening in her hereditary domains.
This superiority at once helped the League to a diplomatic victory over the Union, with which an agreement was come to, whereby, during the war in Austria and Bohemia, hostilities betwecn the parties of both alliances in Germany should cease.

 Sightings: Stonehill College Criticized by Catholic Action League
Catholic Action League Executive Director C. Doyle stated: "Stonehill College compromised its Catholic identity by teaching its students that the repudiation of Catholic morality, far from being a cause for censure, is something to be respected, admired and rewarded.
For too many Catholic colleges and universities, Catholic moral and religious teaching, the propagation of which was the reason for the foundation for these institutions, has been sacrificed to the prestige, publicity and fundraising opportunities afforded by showcasing celebrities and public officeholders.
It is understandably difficult for society to take seriously Catholic opposition to abortion when Catholic institutions regularly honor public figures who support laws which permit the killing of over one million pre-born children each year.

 Catholic League (Italian) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Catholic League (or Holy League) was a coalition of various European powers that was formed by Pope Julius II in 1511, at the height of the Italian Wars, to defend the states of Italy against Louis XII of France and thus to strengthen Papal power.
The promise of territorial gains at French expense caused Ferdinand I of Spain and Emperor Maximilian I to abandon their alliance with the French, and in October 1511, they joined the newly-formed Holy League together with Julius and the Republic of Venice; in November, Henry VIII of England joined as well.
In August 1512, the League met at Mantua to discuss the partition of the territories acquired from the French.

The statement flies in the face of repeated directions from Pope John Paul II which have condemned legal recognition of such sexual unions which are considered by the church to be unnatural and harmful.

 Maureen Mullarkey: August, Art and the Catholic League
We, members of the Catholic League, acknowledge the power of vulgarity in exposing the raw indecency of sin.
In regard to the arts, the Catholic League itself is a corrupting influence, no matter how many apologies it racks up.
It is a topic worth revisiting if Catholic groups like the League are as serious about engaging contemporary culture as they are about grandstanding.
