If we believe what we say we believe in then our approach
must be INCLUSIVE not EXCLUSIVE.

Personally I do not care for Alice Bailey's writings not
because I object to what she says but because I found her too
verbose and over the top with blue type ..... just couldn't read
it! However if someone else gets on fine with her what is
that to me? I have my way; let them have theirs.
