Baum, Burroughs, and the Theosophy Connection
http://www.erbzine.com/mag11/1123.html
Baum was a practicing theosophist and a close friend of Edgar Rice Burroughs – at least close enough to recommend him in 1917 to membership in the Uplifters, a club of California businessman founded by Baum in 1914. It had been the practice of the Burroughs family to winter in California, usually starting in September, from at least the year 1913. Ed most likely met Baum during one of these extended periods* because by 1917 he felt that he knew him well enough to recommend his membership in the Uplifters, even though the Burroughs did not move to Tarzana until January 1919. That Ed was already a long-time a fan of the Oz series is proven from his early Minidoka, which includes a nod to Baum in the introduction as well as in the whimsical contents of this children’s story.
Perhaps the most thorough documentation of Baum’s connection with theosophy was given in David B. Parker’s "Oz: L. Frank Baum’s Theosophical Utopia," a paper delivered at the Kennesaw Academic forum, April 1996. In his study, Parker presents a brief history of the various critical treatments of Oz over the years and cites Baum’s friendly theosophical musings as the editor of the Aberdeen (South Dakota) Saturday Pioneer newspaper in 1890-91. An article by John Algeo, titled "A Notable Theosophist: L. Frank Baum" was published in the journal of the Theosophical Society in America announcing Baum and his wife’s admission into the membership of the Chicago branch of the Theosophical Society on September 4, 1892.

The Wizard of Oz: Parable on Populism
These date from a time when the Cabal had not yet tampered with American history, and will give a truer reflection of both the Oz stories, and the teachings of Theosophy. If everything that we know today is false, perhaps this history has also been tampered with.
On this board we see so many postings saying bad things about groups and people that are supposedly Satanic evildoers. But there is rarely evidence provided that would stand up in court. Sometimes a single photo of a person in a certain pose is enough to launch an attack on them as pedophile Satanists. I for one, do not believe that life is so simple, so black and white. I am willing to learn, from older writings, to think things through carefully, and to apply the lessons that I learn from modern police shows on TV, that you must methodically explore each piece of evidence to rule it in or out, and NEVER jump to conclusions. Use logic.
This board is a trap
To identify deranged people
And shills working with the criminal cabal
The military and the intelligence agencies use the postings on this board to identify people who are a threat to society.
Congratulations, you are now on the death threats list.
Oh, and don't tell me about anonymity. There is no communications channel that the NSA cannot see and track, no VPN that will hide your comms.
