Carlos Isn't Concerned About This Misinformation????

I give below Ken Small's two assessments of some of the material in
THE THEOSOPHICAL MOVEMENT, both 1925 and 1951 editions:
---------------------------------------------------

"Theosophical Movement" books
written by "Theosophy" Magazine editors

On Theos-Talk, Ken Small wrote:

"...From the Point Loma side as far as I know, nothing was
even written or said when the ULT published "The Theosophical
Movement: 1875 -1925" which contains much that is factually
incorrect regarding Point Loma and the Judge - Tingely - Crosbie
history. ( Daniel having posted the documents for all to view
certainly helps clarify this historical era )...now with the
history clarified it would really be a step forward if the 'ULT-
Theosophy Company' would really withdraw and re-write their
embarrassing so-called 'history' which only makes them look
backward, cultish and ignorant !"

In another Theos-Talk posting, Ken also wrote:

"...The ULT 'history', even the 'edited' later 'Theosophical
Movement 1875-1950' has much significant inaccurate information.
Quite some years ago when I was studying all the TS historical info,
I read through this book and began to mark up the chapters relating
to Point Loma, Tingley, Crosbie etc. with corrections.....THERE WERE
SO MANY I DIDN'T FINISH ! it was laughable.... I asked my father
[Emmett Small] what he thought: he smiled and said "well, that's
what they BELIEVE....though it didn't happen that way..." Iverson
Harris had earlier attempted to present some historical facts re
Crosbie/Tingley/Point Loma to ULT but I don't believe he received
any answer. I think that in principle that when organizations are
open with their respective historical views and willing to change
and adjust previous errors of fact that intercommunicaton and open
interchange of Theosophy is enhanced. It can only be beneficial
when old control issues and representations are released and positive
energy is then always the result. I am all for anything that goes in
this direction."
