Well, the League of Decency estimates that it has A MILLION members. And the League of Satan has EVEN MORE by its own estimation!!!

Yeah, Donohue might get endorsements from the pedo-pushers, but he's the Catholic League. He probably wrote that entry himself, and if you notice, all estimates of his membership come from Donohue and then are reported by publications and then those reported estimates are quoted as if they come from the publication. It's an old trick.
