Theos-Talk Archives (August 2003 Message tt00082)

Hi Bart and all,

My views are just my views:

When we talkm about Denmark - I have to say that my knowledge tells me
different. I live in Denmark you know.
The reason why Denmark was excluded - was because of their heavy leaning on
the teachings of Alice A. Bailey. But as I understand it - The Theosophical
Society has changed its policies on the Alice A. Bailey issue through the
years depending on who was sitting at the driverseats in different sections.
True ?

M. Sufilight with peace...
