A good point, and the response I expected from the "liberal
theosophists" on the list.
I was kinda hoping that some of the others might explain or support it
in someway, as I doubt that this interpretation of the teachings is
unique.
However, it really does appear that there are two distinct camps.....
what I see as the dogmatic and the humanist, and the dogmatic appear to
judge whether a person's comments are worthy of debate or not.

Very much nowadays I think of that old saying,"keep your friends close
but keep your enemies closer."
Have a great day, despite it all.
