Although some, including K. Paul Johnson, may think Dallas
T. "protesteth too much", I do believe what Dallas writes in the
following passage is a very good suggestion for promoting serious
discussion
of statements such as:  HPB said various "untruths".

"Chapter and verse" information we all can profit from.  Details are
extremely important in trying to grapple with and determine what is and
is not
true.  Can we have SERIOUS discussion instead of a heated argument?
