I understand HPB that way, that she was not against Religions, only against
false ones.
She was also not against dogmas, but only in forcing people to believe in
them. (Theosophy & Occultism have many dogmas as HPB and Masters confirmed).
She was also not against Jews, but only against Pharisees and Zionists.
She was also not against races, but only against the maya of a Master Race.
She was also not against co-operation of the nations, but only against a
world republic or a world parliament or a world administration.
She was also not against patriotism, but only against a patriotism, which is
based on the lower self.
She was also not against war, but only against a war, which is based on the
lower self. (Theosophy is no pacifism)
All the misunderstandings of HPB's SPIRIT (and, the more, the many strange
and ludicrous translations, at least in German) are centered in the
unenlightened Western lower mind, which cannot discriminate between truth
and untruth.

Subject: Theos-World Religion. (Anecdotal)
In Microsoft Encarta Encyclopedia (1997 edition on CD), I was
surprised to find that Theosophy was described as a *Religion* founded
by H.P.B.
I wonder if they ever fixed this in later editions.
