Err... if its main subject is not defined then it does not have
a main subject. Therefore any attempt to make the study of
theosophy part of the curriculum is contrary to the the sound
decision of the founders ..... ?

In my own lodge of late some of the members have begun to ask
"What is this theosophy thing that gives us our name? Can
someone tell us please?" Come the Spring we intend to do just
that. With them I feel it is absurd to have a society with a
description in its name theosophical with lodges branches
which are not theosophical. Common sense?
