Re: FARTHING AND 'MUMMERIES'

Carlos,
I know very well Farthing's book, and what I said was that I do not 
consider Farthing as an authority on Masonry. His opinion on Masonry 
is too been compared with a man which is University Professor of 
Physics, and who writs a book, let us say, about the social behavior 
of spiders. He may be an world-wide recognized authority on Physics, 
a Nobel Prize winner etc, but he is still no more spider expert then 
any other amateur in that particular subject.  

Carlos, you wrote:
"Farthing's book on HPB x Masonry  was published by the Adyar TS in 
England,  where the "Theosphical Masonry" is influential;  so,  it 
was in a was in a way recognized as truthful by  "theosophical" 
masons in England.'

May I ask; since when do you take notice to the view if the 
leadbeaterians?
