Townsley/Bouzard Response

Well, I was expecting some disagreement from Bouzard on the article entry by Townsley, however, there was more than simple disagreement. Bouzard ripped Townsley's case apart like Kenner demolishes any opposing viewpoints on global warming. He questioned the validity of the case and backed it up with reasonable evidence.

In my opinion, Townsley went about this in the wrong way. As Bouzard describes, there was no discussion with professors and pastors about the subject to maybe gain some supported explanation. His accusations were, at times, out of line and had very little support. He may have researched ELCA doctrines, but he didn't look into them deep enough.

I enjoy the comic relief that Bouzard throws in at the end of his response about upping the religion requirements here at Wartburg. This tone, however, did not overshadow Dr. Bouzards deep disagreement with Townsley.
