In 2006, the president of Saint Louis University, Rev. Lawrence Biondi, taking heat for his school hosting "The Vagina Monologues" defended intellectual diversity . . . "Sometimes that means hosting speakers, events or plays that some may find inappropriate on a Catholic College campus. But as soon as censorship begins at any university, where does censorship end?"That's certainly a good question Father Biondi, and one that you might want to revisit now that SLU has canceled David Horowitz's speech on "Islamo-Fascism Awareness and Civil Rights." (Link to Kavita Kumar's story in the St. Louis Post-Dispatch here. Kumar gets credit for the Biondi quotation above too.)
