Why Louis Pasteur???? Anna Kingsford was a very high mucky muck indeed! She
also was behind a movement to get rid of Blavatsky who was rude, crude, and
smoked! This is the kind of history the powers that be in theosophy want to
sweep under the rug...such as no theosophy...no new age....these folks want
Theosophy to be Westernized Mahayana Buddhism and nothing else. Well it
ain't! So there!
