Theosophy : any of a number of philosophies maintaining that a knowledge of God may be achieved through spiritual ecstasy, direct intuition, or special individual relations, especially the movement founded in 1875 as the Theosophical Society by Helena Blavatsky and Henry Steel Olcott (1832–1907).
No never been in one nor even sat outside on the steps.
Catholics have reported numerous accounts of spiritual ecstasy, direct intuition, and special individual relations. Theosophy is just jumping on the Catholic band wagon!
So no, I doubt if visiting one of these would make one iota of difference to my beliefs.
You are already a baptized Catholic! Why not just go to Mass?
Well, even apart from the Americanised spelling that statement is stupid. Being baptised wasn't from choice it was, as per the stupid Catholic church's way, forced on people willing or unwilling although I doubt if any baby, if it was able to voice a choice , would be willing to get dunked in cold water, have oil smeared on its face and have some strange man fumble with its garments.
