Thanks Mauri for your valuable comments.

I began to think that perhaps I might be perceived on this list as
advocating for the existence of a personal god as described by exoteric
christianity. Nothing could be further from my mind. Such a being is said
to favor one group over another even dismissing some to the outer darkness
forever. Such a being is said to participate in dialogue with some
individuals about the worthiness and lack thereof of others. Such a being
is said to use miracles as demonstrations of both existence and power. Such
a being is said to act from a human-like mindset with human-like emotions
including love and anger. Such a being is said to reward loyalty and
obedience and play favorites and do good things for those individuals in
whom favor is found, while the others may generally be referred to as
"idiots"......no....er.....uh....I've confused the personal christian god
with the theosophical masters. Yikes!!! I guess I'll be going now. :)


regards,
Bill
