I've recently listened to a few of his shows where he's talking about
how "Maitreya" is the Antichrist. Eric doesn't know the background,
he displays his lack of familiarity in the field.
I used to listen to Art Bell, I heard the Kathleen Keating shows
when they aired in the 90s, and although she was entertaining
to listen to sometimes, a "grain of salt" would carry a pound in
her story about meeting the Antichrist.
I emailed Eric and have not received a reply. Eric doesn't
describe things accurately, Kathleen did not immediately
drop off the face of the earth after talking about Maitreya.
She was still on the air for years later with her Enigma Radio show.
Although I once thought she may have passed away, I no longer
believe that because there is a Kathleen Keating who works as
a parish secretary at St. Bernadette's in Houston,
her photo is
on LinkedIn, and it's her.. the same woman whose picture I
recall quite well. Her departure and abandonment of news blog
and radio show, and writing, coincided exactly with her returning
to work in a regular Catholic parish, so I suspect that she was told
to stop her controversial program if she wanted a job.
There is no "Maitreya". The photo from the 1980s which shows
this pseudo-persona appearing in a crowd is just some guy
in a crowd of people from somewhere in Kenya, it could be anyone,
Benjamin Creme promoted all this baloney for years, he started
the ShareIntl "organization" - and talked up the Maitreya character.
Now, he has recently passed away in late October.
I can't say I'm impressed with Eric's knowledge. Perhaps he
will learn more as he spends so much time and effort trying
to make "TradCatKnight" a full-time gig, which is what we've
seen him accomplish, via means which may be criticized for sure.
I'm not going to question is motives or his heart, because success
and ambition are not necessarily exclusive to good intentions, but
his obsessions with popularity are certainly disordered.
