Theos-Talk Archives (April 2006 Message tt00421)

Dear Friends,


Since Daniel likes gossips so much, I give him, see in another posting, a new copy of Paul Johnson's testimony on his own (Daniel's) possible fraudulent activites at the Internet.

Now, therefore, Daniel Caldwell will be able to update his gossips.  

Instead of 19th century ones,  he can explain his own present and recent activities and let us know whether he is such a compulsive liar as Vsevolod Soloviof , the Coulombs and similar persons. 

Personally, my main interest is still Theosophy and  Philosophy, not personality gossips.

Yet I recognize that if Daniel should result to be a fraudulent Internet troller afterall, he would have the MOTIVES to make so much propaganda about 19th century slanderers. 

Best regards,   Carlos.
