So I understand you Bart, that you find the Muslims not to bea great root religion and you think it to be a hybrid offshoot of Christianity with the tinge of Judaism ?
I have no idea how you were able to deduce that from anything I have said. If you define a "root religion" to be a religion from which other religions have been derived, then Islam is, in fact, more of a leaf religion than a root one. Whether or not it's great, well, it's certainly been successful.

You with other words agree upon the below excerpt from the Alice A. Bailey book ?
Well, frankly, I think that the concept of the "rays" has been way overdone. It seems clear to me from the writings of Blavatsky and the Mahatmas that the idea of the rays are an abstraction; Leadbeater and Bailey took these as literal, concrete concepts, practically turning it into a religious point of view.
