While I don't think this thread is very germane to BDNOW!, I should note for those interested that what you say is even more than Koenig, in his excellent review, is willing to state. While he takes pains to minimize the relationship between Ruess and Steiner, even he is obliged to state the fact that: <24 November 1905: Rudolf Steiner and Marie von Sivers each pay 45 Marks to Theodor Reuss for their membership in Memphis-Misraim.> This is somewhat more than <no involvement>, and a contradiction of his own thesis also. This indicates to me that this is an emotionally loaded issue, one that indicates an investment and predisposition to certain preemptory - and confused - judgements. When such smoke is generated, I start looking for fire. Good Regards, Stephen ===== "Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure."
