Hi again Tarjei, you wrote:
"The relationship between Nazism and Anthroposophy as diametrical opposites, as Light and Darkness, is crystal clear from posts and articles by myself and others about this subject."
Those posts and articles are mostly occultist nonsense, in my view. They tell us nothing about the ideological and historical parallels between early anthroposophy and parts of the Nazi movement, because they are fixated on ahistorical labels like "Light" and "Darkness".
"Because your alleged answer is nowhere to be found! Please prove me wrong by posting a link to your answer to Detlef's question"
You really can't find this for yourself in the archive? I thought you were the computer geek type? On March 15 I provided thorough quotes from The Secret Doctrine addressing this and every other foolish thing Detlef said about the book. You can find that post here:
According to Blavatsky, the "yellow and red, brown and black" races are "remnants of the Atlanteans", the fourth of the five historical Root-Races; the yellow, red, brown and black races exist today because the "undeveloped tribes and families of the Atlantean stock fell gradually into a still more abject and savage condition." (Secret Doctrine vol II p. 786) Elsewhere she says that these "primitive" races are the descendants of both Atlanteans and Lemurians, a mixture of the third and fourth Root-Races (e.g. p. 206). At another point she calls the "the red-yellow, the black, and the brown-white" the "three distinct primeval Races" (ibid. p. 260). And so on and so forth.
"With a statement like that, it looks like you're losing it completely."
But you just said, a couple of posts ago, that I had gotten it "exactly" right, in your own words. You then apparently changed your mind in the very next post. Which is it? If you now think my summary of Steiner's doctrine of racial evolution was inaccurate in some way, surely you can point to the specific inaccuracies? Do you now mean to say that Steiner did *not* teach a version of spiritual eugenics built around racial missions and progressive evolution through a series of ever higher racial forms?
