Re: Heavily edited postings
Caldwell says (below - but it will
probably be cut.)
I guess you say I am lying about this.
(maybe you are doing it yourself, being
such a geek and all. Strange that Carlos
says a reference is not on a site - you
check it out - and mysteriously the reference
appears in the theos-talk archives - and
Carlos looks like a fool. Why not just
give him the reference instead of refering
the guy again to a web site.)
Fact: A dozen of my posts as appearing
on the "theos-talk" digest I get have been
edited, including the one caldwell refers
to latterly.
What has been edited: (1) several
comments in the main body of the posts
I quote from Caldwell and Cass both; (2)
numberous "reposts" of material I am
commenting on and reposting below the main
message; (3) a literature quote from Stabledon
- a wonderful piece of writing - which
promotes and ponders on heterosexual marriage.
Did Eldon do it? I don't know
and don't care. If it is too bad, I'll
just leave - but then one is falling
for a trap isn't he? The messages go
out intact to those who get theos-talk
individual emails. I may be being hacked
myself in my own theos-talk digest. My
conclusions: It is possibly a homosexual
or heavy sympathizer attacking me personally
(I just got another of endless harrassing
phone calls which I've got for 10 years.)
Why? - Because ALL of the editing involves
homosexuality or homosexuals, which I
made an issue of in relation to theosophy:
(1) Cass says she is one, Dan is a
supporter if not one himself, as refuses
to say, (2) the Stabledon piece was
praising heterosexual marriage. That's
the common point in all.
If caldwell says I'm Lying - well
who gives a crap what he says. (repost
below.) and just more karma to the guy.

>My last posting here got heavily
edited. One wonders what "vested interest"
did that? After all, this is only a
discussion-site, for crissake, and not
a politically loaded society organ or the
like! Hope this makes it through.

if it makes it this time.
