He serves as the President of the Center for Family and Human Rights (formerly the Catholic Family and Human Rights Institute), also known as C-FAM, a United States-based research institute/think tank and NGO. CareerRuse advanced to Bachelor in journalism as well as in political science (University of Missouri) and received an Honorary Doctorate from the Franciscan University of Steubenville.[1] Having been involved in the establishment of the C-FAM, he has headed this organization since the summer of 1997, holding the title of President since 2000.[2] In July 2013, Ruse was identified as a key member of Groundswell, a coalition of conservative activists and journalists.[3][4] In 2017 he published the book "Littlest Suffering Souls: Children Whose Short Lives Point Us to Christ",[5] which relates the story of three children, including Margaret Leo of McLean, Virginia who died from complications related to spina bifida.[6] Ruse's second book, "Fake Science: Exposing the Left's Skewed Statistics, Fuzzy Facts, and Dodgy Data"[7] was also published in 2017. This attempts to challenge scientific claims on a range of public policy issues including global warming, genetically modified foods, and fracking. Ruse was a regular contributor to the media outlet Breitbart and was instrumental in encouraging Steve Bannon to get involved with Vatican reporting, which paved the way for the establishment of Breitbart's Rome bureau.[8] Moreover, Ruse has published in First Things, The Washington Times, National Review Online, The Weekly Standard, Human Events as well as Touchstone (magazine), and he has been a columnist for The Catholic Thing (biweekly)[2] and Crisis Magazine.[1] Ruse is a founding member of the Diplomatic Society of St. Gabriel as well as a member of Sons of the American Revolution,[2] and has lectured globally on UN matters.[1] Views and controversiesWhile hosting a radio talk show in March 2014, Ruse stated that "the hard left, human-hating people that run modern universities" should "all be taken out and shot".[9] This led to a Catholic priest on a board of C-FAM resigning in protest at the comments.[10] Ruse issued a formal apology for his comments, stating "the expression 'taken out and shot'... was not intended to be taken literally."[11] According to the Huffington Post, he has also described Democrats entering the ballot box as “really dumb ... low-information voters.”[9] The Advocate has described Ruse as "fanatically anti-gay", suggesting he has supported anti-gay legislation backed by Vladimir Putin in Russia as well as the continued criminalization of homosexuality in many African countries. At the UN he has worked to overturn the Human Rights Council’s decision to investigate violence on the basis of sexual orientation and gender identity. Ruse has warned against "radical homosexuals" and suggested that "they are coming for your daughter and your son and your grandchildren. They don’t have any children of their own. They are deliberately barren. So, they have set their sights on yours, your innocent girls and boys."[12] He has described same-sex marriage as an "ideology" that was imposed upon the United States and an act of "revenge" by those that are gay on wider society. Additionally he has suggested that activists for LGBT rights are influenced by Satan and "they are busy undermining all that is good and true and beautiful and it has been given to us to stop them."[13]In 2018 he criticized the Jesuit priest James Martin for his book "Building a Bridge" which urged gay Catholics to begin conversations with their bishops in order to help move the direction of Church teaching towards greater acceptance of homosexuality. Ruse argued that this risked those people "stepping into a life that will only lead to heartache, sometimes disease, sometimes death, [and] even damnation".[14] Private lifeA former Methodist, Ruse embraced Catholicism.[15] The descendent of early English immigrants and his wife Cathleen, a senior legal advisor to the Family Research Council, have two daughters. The family lives in Virginia.[2] AwardsHe is a recipient of the Defender of Life Award presented by the anti-abortion group Students for Life of America. The activist is a Knight of the Order of the Holy Sepulchre and a Knight of Malta.[2] He has also received the John Cardinal O'Connor Award from Legatus (an organization for Catholic business leaders).[16] In 2004, Ruse and his wife Cathy received the John Paul II Award for Advancing the Culture of life from the Catholic Institute for the Psychological Sciences.[17] References1. ^1 2 {{cite web|url=https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/the-new-treasury/brother-craig-the-hatchet-man/e/51111062|title=Episode Info|work=Stitcher Radio|date=August 13, 2017|accessdate=2019-01-29}} 2. ^1 2 3 4 {{cite journal|title=Austin Ruse|url=https://www.catholic.com/profile/austin-ruse|publisher=Catholic Answers|accessdate=January 18, 2019}} 3. ^{{cite journal|last=Vicens|first=AJ|title=Meet Groundswell's Major Players|journal=Mother Jones|date=July 25, 2013|url=https://www.motherjones.com/mojo/2013/07/groundswell-right-wing-strategy-group-members-photos?slide=20|accessdate=March 13, 2014}} 4. ^{{cite web|title=Meeting with the Catholic Family & Human Rights Institute (C-Fam)|url=http://www.foreign.gov.mt/default.aspx?MDIS=21&NWID=231|work=Ministry for Foreign Affairs website|publisher=Government of Malta|date=December 22, 2008}} 5. ^{{cite book|last=Ruse|first=Austin|title=Littlest Suffering Souls: Children Whose Short Lives Point Us to Christ|asin=150510839X}} 6. ^{{citeweb|title=Pope in Fatima|url=https://cruxnow.com/pope-in-fatima/2017/05/10/child-saints-much-teach-church-suffering-sacrifice/|publisher=Crux|accessdate=May 16, 2017}} 7. ^{{cite book|last=Ruse|first=Austin|title=Fake Science: Exposing the Left's Skewed Statistics, Fuzzy Facts, and Dodgy Data|url=https://www.amazon.com/Fact-Shaming-Exposing-Skewed-Statistics-Pseudo-Science/dp/1621575942}} 8. ^Michael J.
