| • | The American Society for the Defense of Tradition, Family and Property (TFP) is a conservative Catholic movement founded in 1973. It is one of many TFPs worldwide inspired by the work of the Brazilian Catholic intellectual, Plinio Correa de Oliveira.
TFP's worldview is based on Correa de Oliveira's 1959 study Revolution and Counter-Revolution. According to the aims laid out in this book, TFP strives to reverse what it sees as the immoral processes that have undermined "Christian civilization" since the 14th century, the "Revolution" of the study's title. TFP promotes the values of Christianity, and opposes liberal and egalitarian ideas, policies, and trends in both society as a whole and in the Catholic Church.
Former members witnessed that the organization holds a strict adherence to a traditional interpretation of Christian values, as taught to them by the now deceased Plinio Correa de Oliveira, founder of their Brazilian parent organization Tradicao, Familia e Propriedade.
TFP is staffed by approximately 135 members and employees. It claims to have, with its affiliated campaign, America Needs Fatima, over 120,000 supporting members nationwide who donate or promote TFP ideas.
It is an action group, promoting its views through newspaper advertisements, direct mail, leafletting, public meetings, and 'caravans', groups of volunteers that spread TFP's message to the public at large.
TFP's campaigns cover a wide range of issues, including the sexual abuse scandals in the Catholic Church, Islamism and 9/11, just war, abortion, euthanasia, embryonic stem cell research, homosexuality and same-sex marriage.
The group also protests films and plays that the group views as blasphemous, including Goddard's 1985 film Hail Mary, Scorsese's 1988 film The Last Temptation of Christ, McNally's 1998 play Corpus Christi, the 1999 movie Dogma, and Dan Brown's The Da Vinci Code. It claims that in October 1999, TFP local coordinators carried out 300
