Alexis comments: The really vital thing here is to first separate what we
KNOW distinctly from what we only THINK we know! Orthodox Theosophists know
far too many things that just aren't so! Theosophy needs to be purged of all
it's "hot Air" and all it's nonsense and fairy tales before it can go public
and hope for any wide-spread acceptance. What good is an organization
composed only of the fatuous and gullible? The young people today are very
cynical and they just don't buy the "believe what we tell you approach"
you've got to show them! Theosophy hasn't "shown" anybody anything since May
8th 1891!
