Krsanna,

I never said Paul Johnson or anyone else makes black magic.

A little respect for turth and for the facts does no harm.

Carlos.

> Dear All - A review by James Robinson of the University of Northern Iowa on

> "There is darn little non-partisan writing about Theosophy and this book

> intertwined with the intellectual and political history of its time.  He

> marshaled an impressive body of evidence to show that the Theosophical

> specific historical personages whose identities were disguised for various
> reasons."

> Theos-talk is living proof that darn little non-partisan writing about
