Oops, I don't think I made myself clear.

This is what I linked to, #37, the idea of a teach-in (faculty-led and even Bishop-led) and what I was asking your comment upon.

Here's one iteration of the idea:

I think a week-long teach-in on "What Pro-Life Means, from theological, philosophical, medical, ethical, and moral pro-life perspectives" and "Obama's Record So Far: Why It is Grotesque and Dangerous" and "Academic Freedom and the Catholic University" and related topics, could be creative and splendid.

It should be led (at least in a titular sense, but ideally, via real authoritative teaching --- it's the bishop's job) by Bishop D'Arcy, and supported by all the great people you mentioned, plus all 10 of the Holy Cross priests who signed the CSCC Priests' Public Statement against Honoring Obama.

I'm going to send this as a request to those 10 priests, plus D'Arcy. I reckon a snail-mail letter would reach them c/o the University of Notre Dame address, right?

What do you think?

This sounds good.

That DOES sounds good, and it WILL be a teaching opportunity, not for the pro-abortion side, which gets it’s message out there all day every day, in the MSM, but the CATHOLIC side, which is, presumably, what ND is supposed to uphold.
