We were severely disappointed to read that a fine reputable Catholic institution such as St. Ambrose would boycott a speaker/debater whose total message was from the book of Genesis from the Holy Bible, "Why Do Evolutionists Fear and Censor Open Debate?". By the refusal of all the faculty to attend this presentation, we must assume that they are all Evolutionists who do NOT believe the Biblical account of Creation. What has our world come to when a "Christian" institution refuses to allow the Christian message of Biblical Creation by GOD to be proclaimed freely to its students? We will be praying that your head Father and the faculty and students will be led by the Holy Spirit to read and learn of the great miracle of God's Creation.
