Emmette Coleman documented the plagiarisms more than 100 years ago,
so this is nothing new. (I checked much of Coleman's work and he is
right.) It is discouraging, though. If Bart is right and the
miracles were all magic tricks, and Rich is right and the books were
all ripped off, and Hodgson is right that the mahatma letters were
all written by HPB and Damodar, there's not a hell of a lot left. It
feels to me like we pulled back the curtain and found the Wizard of
Oz.
