Bill Donohue: Christians In Cuba Have More Rights Than Americans
Submitted by Brian Tashman on Friday, 12/5/2014 11:45 am
The Catholic Leagues Bill Donohue stopped by Newsmax TV yesterday to advertise his Christmas-themed billboard campaign likening the supposed persecution of Christians in the U.S. to the violent targeting of Christians in the Mideast, insisting that liberals would brutally oppress Christians in America if they could get away with it. Donohue bizarrely claimed that he posted the billboards in order to make a point but only to then immediately take that point back. The point is trying to make a point and then taking it back, he said. I am obviously not going to equate people who bash us in radio and television and the media in general and the entertainment industry with people who are going to behead us, but Christians and Catholics in particular are fed up with being bashed with impunity. Its all about hate speech. When Malzberg asked if American liberals would, if they could, go further by violently attacking Christians, Donohue responded that theres no question about it. They would turn us into Cuba. As a matter of fact, Cuba I think has more rights now. The Cubans in Miami are building a Catholic church there and I dont think you can get away with that in many parts of this country, he added.

He gets worse. If that's at all possible.
Bill Donohue: Non-Religious People Need Therapy Since They Die Prematurely And Are Disproportionately Insane
Submitted by Brian Tashman on Friday, 12/5/2014 12:15 pm
Bill Donohues latest Christian persecution campaign took another bizarre twist yesterday when he told Newsmax host Steve Malzberg that he is willing to pay for therapy for non-religious people
since they are probably insane. They believe that freedom is license to do whatever they want, the Catholic League president explained. They dont want to be told anything, which is why they die prematurely, theyre unhappy, thats why we have a disproportionate number of agnostics and atheists in the asylum, all of this is true. Donohue said secularists have an inferior mental health, physical health and degree of happiness, adding: They got to work it out, fine, Ill help pay for their therapy, just take your hands, your mitts off the Catholics during Christmas.

(15,381 posts)What he's really saying is, "If I could, I'd behead liberals so they must feel the same about me." Other than red paint throwing on people wearing fur, most liberal actions are pretty passive. Most of us don't care what other people believe - it's just when you start trying to push it on the rest of us and enshrine your beliefs in law that we resist and put up a fight, which is then what enrages Bill and the other right-wingers.

I appreciate Dr. Donohue and the work done by The Catholic League. I look forward to the day when the work done by the Catholic League is no longer necessary. Sadly, as recent events have proven once again, that day still seems far in the future.
Cardinal Timothy Dolan, Archbishop of New York
The Catholic League has the courage to speak up candidly and forcefully for the Church when circumstances call for fighting the good fight. The League should be on every Catholics short list of essential organizations to support.
Most Rev. Charles Chaput, O.F.M. Cap.
Archbishop of Philadelphia
I am privileged to support the Catholic League. The work of the Catholic League is invaluable and its accomplishments over the years are unparalleled.
Cardinal Edwin OBrien
Pro-Grand Master of the Equestrian Order (Knights) of the Holy Sepulchre of Jerusalem
The Catholic League has done much to ensure that the Churchs positions are presented clearly and fairly. Too often those who do not understand the Church or Her teachings are the interpreters of the doctrines and events in the life of the Church. The work of the League is important in the mission of the Church which must teach the hard truths of the Gospel in season and out of season.
Seán Cardinal OMalley, O.F.M. Cap.
Archbishop of Boston
We are seeing the most violent attack on the Catholic Church in the media and public life since the days of the Ku Klux Klan. Every serious and committed Catholic needs to know what is going on and what to do about it. I consider membership in the Catholic League a must.
Father Benedict Groeschel, C.F.R.
