Where are these guys in relation to the Theosophical Society and Blavatsky, and the like, that fueled Adolf Hitler's ideas of evolution, survival of the fittest and arayan supremacy?

Okay, I started - just barely started - looking into this, and it soon became apparent that this is the type of group X Clubbers would "keep at arms distance", for political reasons. They were always concerned with political appearances.

For example, look at how they treated atheists. They didn't appoint open atheists to key positions, or award them with honours. It would be politically risky. They also took steps to deter anyone from charging them with atheism.

Huxley was very abusive of the English language in this regard, establishing the use of "science" as a euphemism for atheism, and coining the deceptive term "agnostic". As gnosis = knowledge, it would indeed have been appropriate for him to profess to be agnostic, but that's not what he meant.

Anyway, to understand these relationships, think of F.D.R. and the American Communist Party. F.D.R. dared not admit any affinity, but actions speak far louder than words. X Clubbers were very reluctant to take political risks, only sticking their necks out when their agenda required it.

Earlier, I did see where someone connected to the X Club was big-time into mesmerism. I'm sorry, but I have forgotten the name.
