"The Pope and the Witch" has a long history of sparking protests. The New York-based Catholic League, whose president, Bill Donohue, calls the play "pure hate speech," has criticized its appearance at theaters that receive public money from the National Endowment for the Arts. Demonstrations have been held at several colleges where the play has been staged.

"Tolerating this type of hate is giving license to defamation," she said via e-mail. "One can only imagine what kind of upheaval would take place on campus if the U staged a play smearing Mohammed."
A University rep says:
"It's not our role to be a rigid censor; it is also not our intent to offend folks," he said. "But academic freedom and the free exchange of ideas are the hallmarks of higher education."
Oh, really? Then why don't you publish the Mohammed cartoons? Why don't you do a play mocking Mohammed and Islam? You're so fullashit.
Liberal-leftists will attack and mock Christianity because it's a peaceful, nonviolent religion... but will never countenance saying anything nonendorsive, even truthful things, about Islam, as they know they'd risk being killed by Muslims as a result. Pick on Christians 'cause we're nonviolent, but leave the Muslims alone because they'll kill you. Big, fat cowards!
Go ahead, publish the Mohammed cartoons, at least. And make Robert Spencer's and Salman Rushdie's books mandatory reading for all freshmen. I dare you fullashit, hypocritical, Christian-hating cowards!
I'm beginning to wonder what good universities really are. I'm now questioning the value of the piece of paper I have framed on my wall declaring in Latin that I'm something supposedly special just 'cause I met some liberal-left institution's "requirements". Did I waste years of my life and thousands upon thousands of dollars just to be honored with a stupid piece of paper from some highfalutin' moonbat poopheads?
Can't help wondering these days, the more I learn about the radical moonbattery of universities...
