KIRO 7 Eyewitness News October 24 2011
JZ Knight Sandra Romero KIRO 7 Eyewitness News - YouTube
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5A3-eorM_Mc

The small video clip of JZ Knights foul and discriminatory hate speech was recorded at her Ramtha cult compound in Yelm,
is but the tip of a very dangerous cult iceberg.
Virginia Coverdale is correct to point out that JZ Knights foul attack upon the Catholic Church has been ongoing for over twenty years. No religion is spared by JZ Knight, even The Dalai Lama has come under attack.
What you are witnessing is typical cult leader tactics to divide and conquer its members in the most destructive and despicable way possible.
Thank you Virginia

From all of us here at EMF

The Republicans got a link to the video from a group of ex-Ramtha School members who downloaded the clips from a livestream of a February 2012 service at the Ramtha School.
They don't like Romero because they say Romero has looked the other way when it comes to what they believe is Knight's "cult."
Virginia Coverdale, one of the people behind the video, and a former member of the Rathma School, says: "It's not like we put words in JZ's mouth. It's what she said."

Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. returned to visit the RSE campus in Yelm on June 27, 2007, to an audience of 1,000 students as well as local city, county, and state officials. He spoke at length on the state of the American environment and the political policies at the root of its destruction. Mr. Kennedy's compelling and deeply engaging talk was followed by a book signing.

John F. Kennedy Jr. spoke at Ramtha Schoool of Enlightenment TWICE ... 2 times ... two times. I was at his second speech; he stood elbow to elbow with JZ Knight.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. pals around with destructive cult leaders.

On November 18th, CNN will present a documentary on the Jonestown Massacre where 913 people lost their lives because of their blind devotion to a charismatic (destructive) cult leader. Among the dead were over two hundred children.
There have been many (destructive) cult leaders and just about all of them paid for access to politicians and celebrities to help get favorable reviews in the MSM and to get new recruits. Jim Jones, used this recruiting technique quite well alligning himself with U.S. Representatives Phillip and John Burton, Assemblyman Willie Brown and Mayor George Moscone. The Fall of 1976 seems to be the time Jones achieved his peak of power. The Burtons, Willie Brown, Williams, Moscone, radical Angela Davis, lawyer Vincent Hallinan, Lieutenant Governor Mervyn Dymally and publisher Carlton Goodlett toasted him at a testimonial dinner. And later Moscone gave him a seat on the San Francisco Housing Authority Commission.
Another (destructive) cult leader J.Z. Knight heads the "Ramtha School of Enlightenment." She claims to give lectures at the UN, sponsor a "Humanity Foundation" working with "Women World Leaders" and also to be good friends with Linda Evans and Shirley MacLaine.
In 2005, J.Z. Knight paid a fee to Robert Kennedy Jr. to speak at the "Ramtha School of Enlightenment."

Open letter to Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

Cult News from Rick Ross

I am an environmentalist, liberal and former cult member and am very sad that you spoke at the "Ramtha School of Enlightenment."
You may not be aware of this, but J.Z. Knight will take full advantage of your attendance at her school and use your name, your reputation and the reputation of your father and your family to promote her group.
Maybe you need an education about what a [destructive] cult is?
A [destructive] cult is the most fascist, dictatorial type of group known to man.
In America, you and I and all the liberals and environmentalists have the freedom to speak out against our government and to change that government in a democratic fashion.
Also, within mainstream religious organizations from the Catholic Church to the "Religious Right," members may express their own points of view to a varying degree and debate the relevant issues.
At Riverkeeper, you and your associates probably debate issues and have disagreements.
However, there isn’t meaningful debate or disagreements in a [destructive] cult.
A [destructive] cult is an organization where typically one person is held as "God-like," infallible and essentially above the law.
Followers do not seriously question leaders like J.Z. Knight, Reverend Moon, and Sri Chinmoy, who was once my leader. In fact no dissent is really tolerated. Either you swallow the group dogma, hook, line and sinker, or you are out and will be ostracized and shunned forever by all your former friends and associates that remain involved.
That is totalitarianism.
You were quoted in The Olympian to say, "Someone who doesn’t like you very much told me I was speaking at a cult"... "I guess it would be OK if I spoke at Bob Jones University."
I don’t recall a Kennedy ever speaking at Bob Jones, but I remember your Uncle Teddy speaking at Jerry Falwell’s school. He was treated quite courteously, although everyone there knew he didn’t agree with Mr. Falwell.
The "Ramtha School of Enlightenment" may seem like a "New Age" alternative education, holistic kind of place, but in reality the dogma is much more rigid and dissent is probably less tolerated there than at Bob Jones University.
You would never have been allowed to raise questions or encourage debate within the Ramtha group about its leader or her absolute authority.
[Destructive] cults expect their members to obey the leader at all times.
At the Ramtha School perhaps students feel they are not actually obeying Ms. Knight, but rather the 35,000-year-old spirit from the lost continent of Atlantis named "Ramtha" that she claims to channel.
Do you know what "Ramtha" has said?
In one channeling session Ramtha reportedly said, "Mother Nature" wants to "get rid of" gays."
And "Ramtha" has recommended buying Ms. Knight’s Arabian horses as an investment.
It is said that you are considering running for New York Attorney General. Maybe one day you may even run for President. This is why I am so deeply concerned about what you said at this recent lecture.
You told the audience at the Ramtha School, "I was really excited; because I just really wanted to see this place...You’re good people with good values, and all the values this country is supposed to stand for."
But to me the freedom to express one’s point of view and to speak out against injustices of any kind are the fundamental pillars of any democratic society. These are the "good values," which forms the basis for our society.
However, at the Ramtha School the leader isn’t democratic and other views are not really tolerated.
How can you support and commend this, and then condemn George Bush or the Republican Party?
Please let me know where you stand concerning [destructive] cults.
Much like battered women, the followers of charismatic cult leaders often remain loyal unless they find some way to break free and begin to reason and reflect again independently.
Believe it or not, the followers of cult leaders are very frequently well educated, sophisticated and sensitive, but authoritarian leaders rob them of their ability to think independently as individuals and dominate them.
I urge you to examine the "Ramtha School of Enlightenment" and research its history.
J.Z. Knight has been called a "cult leader."
It is hard to believe that a Kennedy would dine with such a person in a palatial mansion probably paid for largely though the pain and suffering of cult victims.
Her followers paid $1,000.00 each to attend the retreat you lectured at and an additional $30.00 to hear you talk.
They buy her tapes; books etc. and probably serve Ms. Knight in many other ways. Some may have left their homes, given up jobs and even their families to help her there. Whenever they finally move on many may not be employable and perhaps they won’t be able to afford health insurance.
My one-time leader Sri Chinmoy encouraged many of us to work below the minimum wage and without benefits, at businesses owned by senior group members in New York and other locations. Many workers were illegal aliens.
Do you think that this type of behavior represents "good values"?
As New York State Attorney General would you do anything to stop or prevent such bad treatment?
Or will you stand idly by allowing cult leaders to become rich at the expense of their followers, often illegally abusing and exploiting them?
Are these "the values this country is supposed to stand for"?
I really want to know where you stand on these issues.
