I don’t know that allegations of Hopkins being a charlatan or his Witnessed being false are well founded.
He’s a layman.
He’s an artist.
He’s had some training in hypnosis.
Beyond that, he’s a self-taught UFO expert and one of the best known with a wealth of material under his belt primarily because soooooooooo many experiencers have sought him out because they didn’t know who else to go to.
I applaud him trying to help hurting people make sense of their experiences.
I deplore his and all the other famous researchers refusal to talk about the fact that authentic Born Again Christians are not abducted and/or stop attempted abductions cold by calling on the name of JESUS.
Whether he is in the employ or under the influence or even control of the puppet masters I don’t know. Wouldn’t greatly surprise me, if he was.
W. Streiber has been alleged to be under the GPTB’s control for a long time. Who knows.
I’ve noted elsewhere that Stanton Friedman saddened me the last time I talked to him—March—when it was clear that he was singing the party line about ET’s maybe helping or forcing us to come together in a global government though he didn’t say it that starkly. That’s clearly where he was headed in what he was saying.
Nevertheless, Stanton is a great researcher and a very sharp mind who has shredded a lot of “debunkers” with 3/4th’s his brain tied behind his back.
In Hopkin's book Witness, there was a couple of lines taken from the movie "The Seventh Sign" and there's some controversy over Linda Cortile Napolitano's behavior. If I remember correctly, the whole story was also similar to another book called Nighteyes....
I've not heard too much about Hopkins response to all that.
As for Friedman, I agree he's one smart cookie and has picked apart Bob Lazar's story. But what concerned me was when he admitted he was a secular humanist. That just set alarm bells off.
