Well, at least no one can accuse you of false modesty.

There were so many victims it is not unusual to find someone who
was. I have met several Theosophists in years past. It would not be
quite accurate to say that they disagree with you, but rather that
they have a different perspective. If one person knows what ice
cream tastes like and another does not, they may have different ideas
about the matter, but disagreement would not be an accurate
characterization of the difference.

I am not arguing with you, but would suggest that you read Jean-
Francois Steiner's book TREBLINKA, which deals tather extensively
with the reasons why that happened. It is very instructive. One
could just as easily ask how millions of Russian soldiers were
persuaded to die in the snow in defense of a foul dictator like
Stalin. These things do happen, and the reasons make interesting
historical inquiry.
