Theos-Talk Archives (December 2005 Message tt00324)

Dear Jerome,

To answer your comment, I don't really care what the "Jerome 
personality" thinks of the "Daniel personality", but I was 
simply asking for a clarification of what you had written 
about my supposed actions and alleged motivations in the 
FOHAT article and wondering if you were classing me with 
Mrs. Besant and Mr. Chakravarti or putting me in a NEW category 
with "conscious" and "evil intentions".

Mr. Judge's words I referred to seemed relevant to what you were 
writing. <http://blavatskyarchives.com/blackmagicians.htm>

I find your comments very similar to many I have received 
over the years from many students of Leadbeater's, Besant's, 
Bailey's, Prophet's "Theosophical" teachings. Some of your
arguments are simply echoes of the arguments given by these students.

In asking HARD QUESTIONS to some of these various followers 
and students they invariably DISTRACT from the general issues and 
questions and try to turn the tables by going AD HOMINEM 
questioning my motivations, etc. 

In college, I remember when I questioned certain statements 
and beliefs about Christianity by some of my classmates some 
accused me of being a disbeliever and atheist and/or that I 
was being influenced by Satan and his demons.
 
When I published Margart Thomas' compilation about Mr. 
Leadbeater and Mrs. Besant on my website, I was 
accused by several CWL/AB students of being a "tool" 
of the dugpas.  

When I published Nicholas Week's article about Alice Bailey, 
I was told similar things by some of Bailey's students. 
 
I also found Paul Johnson frequently using this same AD HOMINEM 
tactic instead of dealing solely with my criticisms of his thesis 
about the Mahatmas as given in my HOUSE OF CARDS pamphlet which 
can be found online at:

Paul Johnson used an "ad hominem" tactic against me 
to explain why I was questioning and correcting some 
of his statements in his books. He thought I was a 
Theosophical "fundamentalist", a "heresy hunter" doing 
the bidding of the theosophical organizations, etc. 
 
So now when you say I am actually a detractor of HPB and 
I am poisoning real Theosophy (I have no idea what you mean by 
that!!), etc. etc.,  I do not really understand your 
reasoning and how you got to those conclusions but I am NOT 
surprised....
