Dear Joseph

My views are:

Yes. But Dawkins is accepting too much (dualism) and rejecting too little as far as I read him.
Some info:
http://www.sirbacon.org/links/dawkins.html and http://www.fbrt.org.uk/pages/essays/frameset-essays.html

But I honestly find http://www.sirbacon.org a quite interesting website.

Shakespeare and Sufism.

It places the Gurdjieff - Sarmoung Brotherhood in Usbekistan at Bokhara: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bukhara

You did not answer my previous e-mails questions, especially not this one:
And I keep hearing you agree upon that Alice A. Bailey is political and not non-political as H. P. Blavatsky and Morya was. Is that true?

So your silence  to this question tells me you do not know the answer.

  Morten and Cass,

  Thank you very much for your interest. The names mentioned above are
  there to represent an entire point of view, namely the "rational
  materialist" point of view which makes up the prevailing opinion of
  our culture. I hope that clarifies things a bit. Richard Dawkins is
  a prime target, in this case. He forms a great deal of opinion in the
  field of religious studies and evolutionary biology.
