Think this one over. Would HPB endorse such an exclusivist
attitude? Didn't she ALWAYS insist that one could disbelieve in
her and the Masters and still be a Theosophist? I can think of no
instance where she was less than hyperemphatic about this. It
would be a shame if her and Olcott's devotion to making the
movement a home for seekers of all varieties should be undermined
by attitudes like that expressed above.

This strikes me as a harmonic overtone of our motto and
