The Debate

About the Book

The Debate picks up where The Group leaves off. Danny had

finished his tense sessions with The Group, made up of self styled

student philosophers. At the end of the final session Peter Grayson

challenges Danny to a campus wide debate, scheduled for the first

Saturday in  March. Dean Moreland had approved of the debate.

On a personal note, Danny spends a marvelous Thanksgiving

with the Lowry’s while Karen spends a very exciting and event fi lled

week at the Carters for Christmas. Much drama ensues as Karen

discovers that she looks amazingly like Danny’s sister, Mary, and

then Mary springs a Christmas shocker surprise on everyone.

Meanwhile, Peter Grayson discovers that solid facts that support

the naturalist position are few and far between. Because of this, the

EU administration is furious that Danny was not soundly defeated

in the campus debate on creationism vs. naturalism. They are even

more furious when Danny is forced to reveal that he is planning to

bring a Christian club onto campus. The tension that develops

from this angst sweeps up the reader in the culminating chapter of

the book, as one realizes what a great price must be paid by those

who go into the elite venues of the world to be a witness.
