My vies are:

Sorry Vince.
I guess I was not expressing myself properly according to the english language.
What I meant was, that "We, the non-dogmatic theosophists do not keep any books as if it was a Christian Bible."

I am talking about the dead-letter teachings, which mosten often is
supported by the Christian leaders.

M Sufilight-

First you say:

"We, the non-dogmatic theosophists do not keep Bibles."

This strikes me as a misrepresentation.  I'm attending a class at
the Theosophical Society of Wheaton at this moment which expressly
uses biblical quotations in it's written class materials.  Many
theosophists do indeed keep Bibles.  And they are not dogmatic about
it either.

Secondly you say:

"We cull the good we find in each system of thought and in life."

Yet your second statement contradicts your first.  Apparently you do
not cull the good that you find in the Bible, if in fact you do not
keep Bibles.  Rather, you label those who keep Bibles as dogmatic.

A theosophical exchange in a corridor at the local TS

WISE MEMBERSHIPS
As an example, there is the one in which two mothers talk about
their sons.
One says, "And how is your boy getting on as a guru?"
"Just fine," replies the second. "He has so many pupils that he
can afford to get rid of some of the old ones."
"That's great," says the first. "My son is getting on so well that
he can afford NOT to take on everyone who applies to him!"
