How  can they not be so
disgusted that they throw him  out?


That's an easy one!  If the ideas a worthwhile it does not matter one  bit 
the character of the person who came up with them.  If the ideas are  worthless, 
all the virtue in the world will not change that.  So the fact  that 
Leadbeater was a dreadful person does not pertain at all to his writings  except for 
those instances where he claimed personal virtue in them.
 
I would rather read something interesting by a mass murderer than something  
boring by a good person.
 
And if the mass murderer has a good idea, I'm not going to reject the idea  
merely because he was so impolite as to leave a few dead bodies around.
