"Inconsequential" to this list was meant. But, your response is a good 
theosophical (and, thus, consequential:-) observation. Especially since the 
source of all delusion is the lower self... And, to arrive at such 
understanding (from the point of view of the higher mind) and, thus, come 
closer to "Self Realization" or enlightenment -- is the purpose of 
theosophical study and practice -- that, as we all should know, this list (as 
an offshoot of *Theosophy World* magazine) was designed to discuss.
