Theos-Talk Archives (July 2006 Message tt00073)

Daniel, Friends,

G. Tillett has just admitted here that he scarcely remembers Cranston's biography on HPB.  This was honest of him. 

But I agree with Tillett that J. Algeo, D. Caldwell and their "committee" (Tillett said "puppett commiteee") are somehow in need of more Ethics. 


Carlos Cardoso Aveline.

Assunto:Theos-World Does Aveline agree with Tillett that Cranston's bio is a "shoddy hagiography"?
