Pro-life leader Joe Scheidler comments on Notre Dame...

 

"Thanks so much for protesting the dirty play at Notre Dame.  Several years ago while Fr. Monk Malloy was still president and the play was plaguing the campus, Monica Miller and I drove down in a snow storm and handed out flyers to the theatre-goers.  We got out about a hundred flyers each when we were stopped by the campus police. 

Her flyer was on "integrity" and mine was a photograph of the Golden Dome minus the statue of the Blessed Virgin Mary, and was headlined, "Is THIS what you want?"

The director of the play held up the picture before the students and said something to the effect of "Is this what we want? Hell, yes!" 

In any event it didn't do much good but we did also leaflet Sorin Hall, (where Fr. Malloy was living at the time ),  LaFortune Center ( the student social hall) and the Morris Inn. 

We were hoping that under Rev. John Jenkins the Monologues would be canceled, but we were wrong.  I have written Fr. Jenkins since, to no avail.  But thanks for protesting.  

Respectfully in Christ,

Joe Scheidler.
