Heya Chandlersdad,
We did in fact receive your email, and while I reply to a big chunk of email from seekers on various topics, Gary wanted to reply to yours, so it is officially in the pipeline. He is probably most qualified to address your questions as both he and David moved into the L/L Research house at the same time to help Jim and Carla start a spiritual community. Of the several who moved in, Gary is the only one who stuck around. So his opinion will be much more informed than mine, as I do not know David personally and while I'm familiar with some of his work, I'm not up to date on everything he does. Though I must say that while it doesn't address your specific points, the thread linked by Spero has a good post from Gary (he is Bring4th_GLB, in case you didn't know) describing his opinion. Also, this is probably a topic where all we can do is offer our personal opinions and not really offer any official statement for L/L Research.
To very quickly address your questions from my own personal (less informed) perspective:
1) I don't believe that David is channeling the same Ra that Carla channeled. He's not the only one to have claimed to do so.
I don't think the name of an entity is important in channeling, but rather the information given. It's nice to connect an identity to a source, but ultimately the message is what is important. If there were another collection of channeled information in the same vein as the Ra material, with as succinct, clear, and deliberate language and with similar message, I wouldn't care if the name was Ra or Ross, I'd be very deeply interested.
I'm not 100% sure, but I don't think David still upholds that his Ra source is the same as the one Carla channeled.
2) While I'm not familiar with his work with Corey Goode, David's focus on conspiracy and such topics isn't interesting to me, and I agree that some of the information he shares regarding the nature of our solar system and interaction with ETs is incompatible with the picture painted by Ra. But for some people, the conspiracy information is important in their journey, and David fills a role for them.
Many, many people find the Law of One through David's work. He was a part of my own journey. I know many people who were interested in his work or still are, and seeing their great focus on love and seeking the nature of Creator and self, I personally see that his work has a net-positive effect, despite any disagreements I have.
For good measure, this is all 100% personal opinion
PS.
I've moved this thread to Olio from Strictly Law of One since it is primarily about David rather that the Law of One itself.
