Hadley Arkes makes a modest proposal about ND

Hadley Arkes over at the Catholic Thing says, "So - you want debate? Fine - let's debate!":

As H.L. Mencken used to say, people ought to get what they want “good and hard.” If the university excuses itself in this instance with the claim that the president is coming to Notre Dame to have a serious conversation, well … let’s have that serious conversation. Notre Dame is amply supplied with people who can articulate the Catholic position on abortion and the taking of innocent life. Why not have a debate/discussion?

Read on. Arkes is that wonderful combination of right and fun-to-watch-being-right.

... about awfully important issues, too.
