Paul wrote (but I might've, as well, if speculatively):

also no opportunities to discuss the esoteric topics of my

online opportunities to discuss these topics, and debate 
them, and disagree about them, is getting big doses of 
disrespect.>>

Seems to me that many of us tend to have our own 
various interpretations of what might be called 
esoteric topics or private interests, whether or not we see 
ourselves as mutually agreeing Theosophists, Catholics, 
Buddhists, Zenists, Episcopalians, etc, or not, ... But 
aren't Theosophists, people supposed to be able to cross over 
those confusing barriers, to some extent, in some ways ... 
Not that ....

Speculatively,
