Theos-Talk Archives (October 2004 Message tt00343)

Daniel,

As I understand it, you are on the editorial board. Did the letters 
contained in the book entitled LETTERS OF HPB pass some muster regarding 
their authenticity? As a member of the editorial board did you, in that 
official capacity, conclude that this letter was authentic? It is not an 
issue of censorship. It is your stated position that a person should look 
at both sides of every issue before making a decision? If so may we rightly 
assume that before you made the decision to have your character, name, and 
reputation associated with letters published as LETTERS OF HPB that you did 
in fact look at both sides of the issue and make a decision that these 
letters were authentic?
