Theos-Talk Archives (August 2002 Message tt00013)

Thanks for the pointer to the sites about Alice Bailey. I have to say I am
always wary of sites which severely criticise someone, particularly when it
comes down to orthodoxy ! And very especially with sites like The
Watchman, which I believe is backed by mainstream Christianity. There are
sites which give HPB's reputation a hard time ! :o))) It was,
nevertheless an interesting excursion, and I have saved some of these
articles for printing out and a more measured perusal. I still have not
adjusted to reading long articles from a computer screen, and I doubt I ever
will. All these sources seem to be agreed that Alice Bailey is not in the
same league as HPB, so to speak.

Orra Best,
Ian
