Theosophy is a little more complicated than that. There is no holy writ, no
received scriptures or divine inspiration, no matter how some folks on this
list may try to make it look that way. And as everything finally comes down
to individual interpretation and experience, you are going have people who
disagree, sometimes very strongly. Put simply, there are as many theosophies
as there are theosophists and as many truths as there are people.
Do not judge Theosophy or Theosophists by the mailing lists. We will argue
like cats and dogs and then go out for dinner and enjoy each other's company.
