Theos-Talk Archives (May 2005 Message tt00437)

Theosophy promotes a person's ability to think for themselves, if
applied properly. Sometimes with future predictions such as those it's
hard to use common sense to filter out all the erroneous information.
It passes right over our heads and we end up writing it in stone, so
to speak. The task handed down to us is to ignore everything that
seems incredulous, and find more solid truths. We'll get it sooner or
later -- and it will lead us into a more mature spiritual age.
