Theos-Talk Archives (September 2008 Message tt00010)

I have found that Theosophy, rather than debunk the superstitious 
delusions of my catholicism, has enabled me to see it in an esoteric 
sense which has made it come alive with its intended meaning. 

Isis was written in a carping tone that may seem belittling but it 
merely is the icebreaker that prepares the closed mind for the SD 
which sheds light on all religions alike or is the synthesis of 
them: 'There is no religion higher than Truth'
