Maybe not how pedophilia is good, but someone who specializes in the treatment of pedophilia, deals with criminals who have undergone therapy to understand why they felt it was acceptable and the need to act on their impulses would be welcome. Not someone making pedophilia out as 'good' but someone trying to put the disease in perspective from the perpetrators viewpoint could be seen as an opposing viewpoint. Because you said you just wanted to talk about how it is bad, right?
Pedophilia is a little extreme compared the topics the article is talking about. These are the kind of topics that should have opposing viewpoints because there is not an overwhelming amount of support for one side like there would be with your pedophilia example. No one wants kids hurt - not everyone thinks whitey is the root of all evil and the way to solve it is to racially segregate the masses. This is the kind of stuff that should have truly opposing viewpoints uniting to converse in an open forum.
If they are going to do this kind of thing, they should do it for everyone. It'll be a real shit fest and no one will want to go speak at the college. Problem solved.
