Remote Viewing is Real - Scientific Evidence Supporting the Top-Secret CIA Program

The scientific method was developed during the age of materialism, which established that matter is the fundamental substance of nature, and that all phenomena, including the area of the mind and consciousness, arise from material interactions. Materialism is the belief that all of existence is ultimately physical.

However, with the discovery of the quantum world, the theory of materialism was utterly shattered. Paul Davies, an internationally acclaimed physicist wrote in his book, The Matter Myth: “The old assumption that the microscopic world of atoms was simply a scaled-down version of the everyday world has been abandoned. Newton’s deterministic machine was replaced by a shadowy and paradoxical succession of waves and particles, governed by the laws of chance, rather than the rigid rules of causality; it paints a picture in which solid matter dissolves away, to be replaced by weird excitations and vibrations of invisible field energy. Quantum physics undermines materialism because it reveals that matter has far less “substance” than we might believe.”

Unfortunately, the majority of intelligentsia, the social class of people engaged in guiding, critiquing, or otherwise playing a leadership role in the shaping of society’s culture, science and politics have refused to move forward and accept this modern understanding of reality. Rupert Sheldrake, a biologist and author of more than 80 scientific peer-reviewed papers, wrote about this in his book, The Science Delusion: “The belief system that governs conventional scientific thinking is an act of faith, grounded in a 19th-century ideology.”

For many, science has become a religion, and its proponents have vigilantly set forth to control what is considered the “educated” opinion. The priests of this order are most commonly known as “skeptics,” and various organizations employ hundreds of full time editors to publicly white-wash what they consider “bad science,” while suppressing inconvenient evidence that might challenge their beliefs.

The most active platform that one might observe the proselytizing of scientism can be found on the World Wide Web in the openly editable website Wikipedia. Since its creation in 2001, Wikipedia has rapidly grown into one of the world’s largest reference websites, attracting 374 million unique visitors each month. The majority of the articles are largely provided by anonymous volunteers who write without pay. And while this information system was founded on the belief that the world could collaborate to provide articles free of advertising, agendas, and sales pitches this is often not the case.

In 2013, fundamentalist skeptic Susan Gerbic popularized the idea of Guerrilla Skepticism. In a presentation supported by the James Randi Educational Foundation, she outlined her efforts to actively recruit, train, and mentor editors that set out to bend the spirit of the rules of Wikipedia. She admitted to colluding with hundreds of editors in secret Facebook groups that actively perpetuate their personal agendas by controlling Wikipedia articles, suppressing alternative views, and frustrating opposing editors that do not align with their ideologies. Topics considered as an affront to the skeptic’s doctrine, particularly areas of investigation considered fringe, are tightly guarded by these internet activists. Unsurprisingly, the majority of these editors are not actually scientists, and they are uninterested in following the scientific spirit of open inquiry. Anything that cannot be accounted for within the limitations of current scientific knowledge is deemed illusory and deserves zero tolerance.

Regrettably, the topic of remote viewing has not been left unscathed. Even with over 20 years of meticulous lab research, a fully funded military intelligence unit, a plethora of published peer-reviewed scientific journal articles, and hundreds of declassified operational success stories, remote viewing is still most often attributed to nonsense. The remote viewing Wikipedia page, which comes up as the number one google search result, states that the top-secret research and operational program was terminated after it failed to produce any useful intelligence information. It also states that there is no credible scientific evidence that it works, and should be regarded as pseudoscience.

The Wikipedia entry goes on to claim that the experimental results of the government’s research program were nothing higher than what random chance would allow. The article quotes a multitude of skeptic material including: The Skeptical Inquirer, members of the Committee for Skeptical Inquiry (CSI), The James Randi Foundation, who hosted the Guerrilla Skepticism presentation noted above, and various authors from books like, Beyond Belief: Skepticism, Science and the Paranormal, and The Borderlands of Science: Where Sense Meets Nonsense. There are currently 41 footnotes on the remote viewing Wikipedia page, and the vast majority of the referenced material not only promulgates scientism’s agenda of a materialistic universe, but it also thoroughly distorts, misinforms, and in some cases blatantly lies about the history and supporting evidence of the extra sensory phenomenon known as remote viewing.

In the early 1970s, Dr. Hal Puthoff, an experimental physicist specializing in fundamental electrodynamics, with a research background in the theoretical studies of quantum vacuum states, gravitation, cosmology, and energy analysis, was approached by the US Central Intelligence Agency to lead a top-secret research program to investigate psychic and extra sensory phenomena.

At the time, Puthoff was working for the Stanford Research Institute headquartered in Menlo Park, California, which was established by the trustees of Stanford University. SRI performed client-based research and development amounting to $300 million each year, with almost 70 percent attributed to government contracts from the Department of Defense and various intelligence agencies.

It was the height of the Cold War and intelligence reports had begun to reach the West that the Soviet Union had not only been spending millions on extra sensory research, but they had been doing so for years. The Russian’s had their most prestigious institutes working with their best scientists investigating what most in the American scientific community believed impossible. The CIA was dumbfounded, but in an effort to prevent a “psi-gap” they began funding the top-secret program at SRI to investigate whether or not it was something they needed to worry about.

This project is known today as STARGATE, and 90,000 pages of research were declassified in 1995, when the CIA ended the program. And while intelligence agencies at the time may have wished it otherwise, the physicists at SRI began to produce a steady stream of irrefutable proof for the existence of non-local perception. From this research also emerged a trainable, mental technique that could describe persons, places, things, and events in the past, present, or even the future. The success of the program led to multiple contracts with the US Air Force, the US Army, and other intelligence organizations that are still classified to this day.

Eventually, an operational military remote viewing unit was established, and government agencies frequently tasked these soldiers, trained by the scientists at SRI, to collect intelligence on highly sensitive national security targets. These missions account for much of the 20,000 pages of project STARGATE material that has remained classified. Interestingly, knowledge of the military unit was referred to as a special access program, which meant that it was above top-secret and required individuals to be placed on a special need-to-know list to gain access. However, the program at SRI did operate somewhat publicly, and the physicists were able to publish a few of their research papers, but the knowledge of the military unit and the researcher’s source of funding were kept hidden.
