Reader Corrects Religion Column In Concordia Seminary Row
A visiting reader disputes the religion column’s facts about Dr. Tietjen’s status and the 48 dissenting faculty at Concordia Seminary. The letter argues Tietjen was suspended then relieved, not fired, and that the faculty left voluntarily, not due to a board firing. It condemns the defense of opposing doctrines and accuses the faction of subversive tactics.
