Weren’t the Knights Templar condemned or something like that in one of the councils?
 
The Templars were suppressed seven centuries ago. Jacques de Molay, the last Grand Master, was arrested and later killed on the orders of the King of France, after the order had already been formally dissolved by the Pope in 1312. The website you linked to is clearly just some smart operator hoping to cash in on the distinguished name.

 
Another organization based on extreme views of the news, right-wing in this case.
I looked through one of their pieces. Aside from flatly incorrect readings [readings, not “interpretations”] of the Bible, there are several mistakes in spelling and grammar. Not inspiring of confidence.
They will sell you “regalia”, if you’re interested. 🙂

Given their stance on Muslims and purported links to a military group, I totally doubt they have anything at all to do with the Catholic Church. My advice is don’t waste your time.

When I was in high school I had a couple friends who were involved with a group called de Molay, which is a Masonic youth group.
 
The Masons fancy themselves derived from the actual Templars . . .
 
I also had a friend in de Molay. He would mention going to their meetings but never said much else about it. I think it’s a service group, like Elks or Rotarians.
 
I don’t think that the Catholic Church has any major official relationship to any major group calling themselves the Templars due to the medieval ban. I wouldn’t be surprised if a local Templar club someplace got a blessing from a priest or something.
