If you would like to document some of the other ways the culture of death pervades Notre Dame you may simply go to the book store. If you don't see anything objectionable buy something, ask for it in a bag, and then see what else is in the bag. You will find some flyers. The advertisement for magazine subscriptions has listed on it at least one pornographic magazine. There's no reason to debate which is worse, selling pornography or letting students put on an obscene play. Although much more difficult to document, I could also describe songs performed on campus by bands paid by the university to perform which I can assure you as one who is rather familiar with the contents of the play are equally offensive. I suppose one might debate what sort of fornication promotion is more offensive, but to give an idea, I've seen some on stage humping and heard songs exclusively about non-procreative sexual activities. In addition I'm told the events I've actually witnessed are tame in comparison to other events on campus. Perhaps one could go to legends of Notre Dame's website, note the bands playing, look up the lyrics to the songs performed by said band and go from there. The university's attempts to insure that it's logo is not printed on clothes made under unfair labor conditions are well documented. Why can't it have a similar outlook toward the less popular elements of Catholic teaching? The comparison with other universities is a bit unfair and pointless. I can at least say that at the public university I used to attend I was exposed to far less scandalous material by the university. Even if Notre Dame is better than every other school but still promotes the culture of death to its students, that would not justify it.
