Unread post by David McCarthy »

James Randi Foundation CONsequence Podcast interview

Channeler J.Z. Knight claims to be a conduit for the spirit of an ancient warrior named Ramtha. Her followers flock to Washington state to attend Ramtha’s School of Enlightenment, where they can receive Ramtha’s wisdom and convene with with their fellow believers. But our guest David McCarthy says Ramtha’s School of Enlightenment is a cult. He left his family in New Zealand to join the school, and what he found there left him convinced that J.Z. Knight isn’t what she’s cracked up to be.

Episode 5: David McCarthy vs Ramtha’s School of Enlightenment (Part 2)

Part 2 of our conversation with David McCarthy, a former member of Ramtha’s School of Enlightenment. Ramtha is supposedly the spirit of a dead warrior from a prehistoric civilization who is “channeled” by J.Z. Knight. Knight has formed a cottage industry around Ramtha’s spiritual teachings, though McCarthy and others say this industry is really a cult. In this interview, McCarthy goes into more detail about his day-to-day activities at Knight’s school as well as the slow process of disengaging from this belief system that consumed his life.

Regarding..
What I was referring to during the interview that JZ Knight POSSIBLY having 'Multiple personality Disorder' (MPD).
After watching a BBC interview with Chris Sizemore,
made famous from the book and film "The Three Faces of Eve" Chris Sizemore eventually took control of all her ‘alters’ and recovered from MPD.
Check out the video if you have the time.
So I "speculate" that perhaps it’s possible Judith did the same having realized she could use her ‘personalities’ to manipulate and control others...
this is where her self aggrandizement and sociopathic mindset kicks in :-(
Hopefully if I get the chance for another interview I will make my views much clearer.
YES, JZ Knight is a total fraud..no excuse and no doubt about it.
