Eh, tripe is tripe, (the Blavatsky influence, not the religious and racist
stuff) . " ... go ask Alice ... when she's ten feet tall ... "
"Controversy has arisen around some of Bailey's [Alice LaTrobe Bateman]
statements on nationalism, American isolationism, Soviet totalitarianism,
Fascism, Zionism, Nazism, race relations, people of African descent, the
Jewish people, and the religions of Judaism and Christianity. Yonassan
Gershom and others have described her writings as racist and
anti-Semitic."
