"If Dr. Pusey is referring to the traditional doctrine of atonement then we must acknowledge that Dr. Eliot did not believe in this doctrine," Greeley said.
"But I do not think that he would call it twaddle, for he had too much respect for all men's religious convictions and aspirations," he pointed out.
