". . . against the character of a person who is dead . . . ."

Dallas, you wrote:

"I further say that it is an act of cowardice to advance something 
against the character of a person who is dead and is unable to refute 
it currently."

Dallas, I don't understand your reasoning in this statement.

If I write a book on Hitler and advance a whole list of things 
against his character, does that mean I have engaged in an "act of 
cowardice"?

Are you actually saying that once Hitler was dead, no honorable 
person should ever write anything "negative" about him even if we 
have the evidence to support what is written?

I guess you would also include Dr. Gregory Tillett among 
the "cowards" who have advanced quite negative things about C.W. 
Leadbeater? Mr. Leadbeater was not alive and could not refute the 
various statements made in the Tillett biography of Leadbeater. 

I would be interested to know your thoughts about this.
