:This is an issue that JorgePeixoto and I tried to deal with last year in terms of categories (the discussion was weakly attended so I've re-started it at CFD). No, CFC isn't officially affiliated with the RCC. However, neither are other lay organizations like the Catholic League. I don't think "Catholic" implies "affiliated with the governing body of the church," but if we decided it did, CFC would be far from the only article affected. –[[User:Roscelese|Roscelese]] ([[User talk:Roscelese|talk]] ⋅ [[Special:Contributions/Roscelese|contribs]]) 19:52, 7 June 2012 (UTC)
::The Catholic League is, however, endorsed by the body underwhose purvue Cathlic organizations exist. With the Catholic League, you have a group which claims to be a Catholic organization, where the people who have authority to speak on who/what is a Catholic organization have endorsed it as such. CFC, however, is explicitly declared not to be a catholic organization by the only entity which has the authority to make such a statement. Again, leaving the exact status of the organization for the main body of the article does not make any implications on the status of the group, but to declare it a "Catholic organization" make a false implication. Removal of the word does not fundamentally change the lead except to remove a phrase which might be misinterpretted.---'''[[User:Balloonman|<font color="purple">Balloonman</font>]]''' ''[[User talk:Balloonman|<b><sup><small>Poppa Balloon</small></sup></b>]]'' 20:25, 7 June 2012 (UTC)
