And now I get to beat another of my favorite stories to death again.
20 years ago a televangelist visiting a talk show on the Chicago christian
tv station held up a copy of one of my books and said, "If the author of
this book is not an Agent of the AntiChrist, I don't know who is!" I had the
best sales ever after that.

I am reminded of an interesting incident when CJ was lecturing in South
America. In one of the major cities, he was scheduled to speak, and the
local Bishop forbade his congregation from attending his lecture. Lo and
behold, the congregation became interested to see what is going on and out
of curiosity, most of them showed up, surprising the local lodge. This was
a
shock to the Bishop. I hope we see a similar result in Greece and it would
help more people to find out about theosophy.
