Theos-Talk Archives (May 1996 Message tl01309)

I feel the same as Anne, though I'm still getting theos-roots, which also picks
up a few cross-posts from the other theos lists.  However I often
delete messages without reading them, especially those of a political character
or the "one-liners".  This stuff was really pouring in at one stage, but
unfortunately to my mind there was little of value in it. I find the esoteric
astrology list I subscribe to more interesting in terms of discussing
principles,
 putting them into practice, and also openness to others' ideas, and I feel more
 inclined to send messages when I get time.  I wasn't going to say anything as I
 don't like to be too negative and have a "live and let live" attitude, but
since
 someone asked...
