I too, agree with Eldon and disagree with denigrators of HPB and the 
teachings of the Masters. 

So... What does "not a dead-letter science" mean? 
What kind of science is it? 
And, how do we explain it "in the language of this age" [HPB] -- so everyone 
will understand it who are not yet knowledgeable theosophists or occultists, 
(including those steeped in the blind beliefs of religious dogmas promoted by 
those self professed teachers of theosophy who came after HPB)? 

Leon...

P.S. We should remember that if theosophical metaphysics as clearly disclosed 
in the SD (in and around the words and between the lines for the "intuitive 
student" to read and understand) falls apart or can be disproved scientifically 
or contradicted theologically -- then all the connections between the true 
religion and philosophy it synthesized dies with it... Leading to more chaos by 
the dogmatic "religious right" (of whatever stripe) than we already have or 
can bear in this world.
