There is a rather long lead time between making contributions to the 
Encyclopedia and publication. So it may well have been accepted back 
in the 1980s. In fact, Potter may well not have known - whatever his 
views on vetting contributors. Some of what has been said here I had 
not heard before. And do not know if it is true or not.

I had rather discarded his theories on the relationship between 
Christianity and Buddhism some time ago.
