According to a post in First Things, Peter Singer is telling half-truths. In a letter to The Nation, Princeton University's outspoken defender of infanticide claims that fellow Princeton philosopher (and pro-life advocate) Robert George refuses to debate him on whether human life is sacrosanct.
Here's what Singer said:
Great universities thrive on the contest between deeply opposed positions, so I welcome the presence of conservatives like Robert George on the Princeton campus. For Princetons undergraduates, a debate between someone like myself and George on whether human life is sacrosanct would be a stimulating educational experience. What a pity it is, therefore, that it has never happened. On several occasions over the past years, student organizations have tried to set up a debate between George and me. I have always accepted. George has always refused. Which of course makes me wonder: If George thinks it is so important to challenge the liberal hegemony at universities, why wont he do it in the time-honored arena of a public exchange of ideas before the university community.
Robert George is Right not to Debate Peter Singer
