Sorry I misunderstood your earlier entries. What did you mean by these entries? "I have no problem with either patience or deliberate pacing & gradual study otherwise I wouldn't have spent 35+ years on the path .....What I DO object to is the deliberate hucksterism" and "I find it very telling that in EVERY correspondence [ even their Xmas card] there is a donation offering envelope."
BTW, to avoid confussion, when Mac said Case was a member of the GD, I feel sure he meant that Dr Case was initiated into the Second Order of the Thoth-Hermes Temple of the Golden Dawn (Alpha et Omega) on May 16, 1920, while in New York, not the original British order that influenced Waite, Crowley and Mathers, which had disolved well before 1920.
