Theos-Talk Archives (July 2003 Message tt00181)

Okay. Since all the opinions have been laid on the table and none of us can 
come up with any valid proof of what is a lie and what isn't, let's leave it 
at that and let each of us examine the ideas presented and the references 
given, do their own research to deny or confirm them, and decide for ourselves what 
may or mau not be true, and what relationship they might have to the 
theosophical movement (of which the founding of this country was an integral part) and 
the ideas presented by Blavatsky with respect to it. I'm sorry that my 
posting of the original essay as a matter of interest to theosophists, without any 
comment of whether I believed it or not, has led to such unproductive political 
argumentation and dissension. In any event, I think that theosophy itself, 
which also can't be scientifically proven or disproved, can be subject to the 
same kind of opinionated by-play -- which really has no place in this forum 
which ostensibly, in my view, should be devoted solely to a discussion of 
theosophy and its relation to the practical world we live in - which might also 
include the effects of dictatorial governmental intrusions on our lives and our 
principles.
