Why do you see a problem here, Rich. Its a benevolent
racism that the SD teaches. As Doss said, its like a big brother
with a smaller brother or sister. The big brother protects and loves
the little baby sibling, even while knowing his superiority. Why
do you suppose, so few theosophists are black, Rich? If you
were black, would you still feel the same way?
