M Sufilight-

First you say:

"We, the non-dogmatic theosophists do not keep Bibles."

This strikes me as a misrepresentation.  I'm attending a class at 
the Theosophical Society of Wheaton at this moment which expressly 
uses biblical quotations in it's written class materials.  Many 
theosophists do indeed keep Bibles.  And they are not dogmatic about 
it either.

Secondly you say:

"We cull the good we find in each system of thought and in life."

Yet your second statement contradicts your first.  Apparently you do 
not cull the good that you find in the Bible, if in fact you do not 
keep Bibles.  Rather, you label those who keep Bibles as dogmatic.
