By attacking Blavatsky you are also indirectly attacking the life-
altering influence she had on both Besant's and Leadbeater's life. Both 
of them have declared this IN WRITING, for all future generations of 
students of Theosophy to know. 

This is just my polite way of saying that you do not know what you are 
talking about, that your point of view on this issue is blatantly 
irrational and a disservice to the contribution Annie Besant and C. W. 
Leadbeater made to the theosophical movement. 

I strongly suggest that you go on a "mauna"(*) retreat for some time 
until you can see things more clearly.
