Leon,
Feel free.
Bill saw the point.
Best regards, Carlos.

Folks, I hate to butt into this argument, but it's gone so far off base
that
I can't avoid commenting.
As for Carlos...
Your response below is both arrogant, ad hominem, and stupid... Since Bill
sees you exactly as your are (as I have also pointed out in the past, and
I'm
sure many of us also see)... And you have no reasonable argument to prove
any of
us wrong.
When are you going to quit this constant provocation, based on your
personal
opinions and animosities, as well as faulty memory, presumptive and gossipy
attacks, coupled with illogical reasoning?
Harping on past mistakes or circumstances that can't be changed and
constantly berating people you dislike, as well as fomenting personal
arguments with
them, will get you nowhere -- except to turn everyone off that might have
had
some respect for you as a theosophically knowledgeable teacher or guide.
Face it, and get off our backs -- unless you have something positive to say
that might help members of this forum fulfill the objects of the
Theosophical
Movement, or give us a better understanding of Theosophy, its fundamental
principles and its metaphysical realities.
