The universe is not a morally neutral realm- even for spies.

There was once a U.S. government program that trained carefully selected personnel to transcend time and space; to view persons, places, or things remote in time and space; and to gather usable intelligence on the same. The name of this program was Stargate.This account is written by a highly decorated regular army officer(Airborne Ranger Company Commander) who was a recruited to play a direct role as a remote viewer. He was seemingly an unusual candidate for this, having grown up in a career army family and the Mormon church. However, having experienced a head wound, and a resulting near death experience, he began to perceive the world around him in a way that shook his previous misconceptions about the nature of the universe. He even began to doubt his own sanity. Fortunately, in those days there were still a few brilliant and open minds connected with the government that recognised the existance and value of those with "special gifts."This book will give you an overview of the precedure used in the remote viewing process. It also gives a good survey of the types of missions that were attempted. There are several books that can do this acceptably. Morehouse gives insight into the moral and ethical element of the process. You see, he always knew of the higher struggle of Good and Evil in the world and never once lost sight of it (the world would have no purpose without choice between the two.) He shows that this is no doubt what ultimately lead to the demise of the program and the following smear campaign. You see, the CIA tried to take control of the program at the end and nothing "spooked" the "spooks" more than the idea that there might be angels looking over their shoulders. Indeed, the highest ranking intelligence officer in the the army is quoted, before witnesses, as saying that the CIA does nothing that doesn't primarily serve the Agency's own interests- and that they are the biggest assembly of liars and thieves in the country- and an "abomination." These were the words of the army's deputy chief of staff for intelligence.Whether or not you believe any of this is up to you. All I can say is that I have some small experience in these matters and this is the best written, most intelligent, account that I've read. It was a strong ring of truth to it and that is a hard thing to convincingly counterfeit.

Captain Moorehouse is how I knew him

I was under CPT Moorehouse's command From E-1 to E-5. I was in 2nd plt Bco. 1/75 Ranger Bn at Hunter Army Airfield Savannah Ga. It was my platoon on the Objective when CPT Moorehouse had been shot in the head. Unfortunately I wasn't personally on that deployment due to a death in my family. SFC Ricketts, SFC Hayes, Lt. Wright, Lt. Owens were my leaders growing up in the Ranger Bn. All of us under the Command of Captain David Moorehouse. This book would be totally unbelievable to me except for one fact, the man who wrote it. I was in his company nearly the entire time he was in command. I am currently in Special Forces and have been in the military over 12 years. My entire career has been in special operations; and up to date I have not had a commander or Team leader that could hold a candle to Cpt. Moorehouse. As the CQ runner,while under his command, I would have the duties to clean his office in the evenings. I would stand in awe of his walls hanging his military diplomas. Diploma after diploma was distinguished honor graduate or honor graduate. This in it self would set himself far above his peers. But it was my personal witness to his commitment to his soldiers, his company, and mission accomplishment that proved his true character. This man truly trained his company for war not for his OER, which, I believe, most commanders do. On more than one occasion I witnessed him break range control regs, putting his career on the line, so we could have the most realistic training possible. So his company would be truly ready for combat not just looking like it on paper for the higher echelons pleasure. He had tremendous standards which he held the company to. He would not have any of his men do anything he wasn't first willing to do himself. I once witnessed him carrying two rucksacks on a road march. One rucksack was his own and the other was a soldier's ruck who could not keep up the pace. There are too many incidents proving his selflessness and dedication to mention. One thing I can say for sure is I was there. I was a witness to his professionalism, his character, and to this day I would follow him into combat without hesitation. There are many great soldier's in Special Ops and CPT Moorehouse was one of the best. His book is an eye opener for everyone currently in Special Ops. Though by far the most unbelievable non-fiction story I have ever read, I believe this to be truthful coming from CPT. Moorehouse. Bringing this out in the open just proves to me that the utmost Selfless, dedicated, and professional officer I have ever met hasn't changed. 18D4VW9

A true story by a very humble and lovable person

After having read about Remote Viewing I had the opportunity to meet with Dr Morehouse and take his Remote Viewing class. So now I know. I know the reality is so much more than most people think. I know from my own experience. It strikes me that this is the first time in history a so called paranormal ability is proven and also available for anyone who dares to take his class. Dr Morehouse is a very honest and truthworthy person. This book is wonderful and touching. It makes You understand what the ability to transcend time and space really means and that we all have that ability. Do You believe in paranormal abilities? Become someone who knows! There is a safe and cheap way to really know. Read this book, take his Remote Viewing class and Your whole view of reality will change to a much more accurate and exciting one.

You either believe it or don't, but either way I enjoyed it

I just finished this book and of course I am skeptical (not cynical though) of things I do see much less things I cannot. I will add that the Washington Post did write an article on research in psychic intelligence and that program called Stargate (and yes believe it or not that WAS the name of the program), so see it as you will. Also don't forget "psychological profiling" was once thought of as crap and look where it is now. Can remote viewing enjoy that success? If it is in fact true the only way that will come out is if the the US Gov't comes clean on it (according to FOIA records our gov't has spent quite a bundle!). Quite obviously both sides of the Cold War sought to exploit this issue because this type of intelligence is not thought of in "out of this world" terms in Former SU.At any rate, there were things that had read about or researched about events Morehouse described. I found the small snippet on the Ark of the Covenant to sound quite believable, since I recently read unpublished manuscript of its power. The keepers of the Ark do say that only a select few can approach the Ark and they are the only ones who have done so (if you believe the them/the research) physically. Another thing that rang true was the death of Lt. Col Higgins, not only the small details about him being moved constantly to avoid rescue, but the detail on how his spirit died, which made it inevitable that sooner or later, usually the former, the person does expire. Having read accounts of POWs in most 20th century wars and hostages around the world that rings very true, once you give up hope that usually means a quick end even if the physical body is "healthy." The final chapters became muddled in terms of establishing a timeline, particularly regarding his family life and work on the Gulf War. I wish Morehouse gave more thought in that than jumping around semi-stream on consciously because the previous chapters were quite incoherent. The other thing was the excessive hype on the cover of this book. First off the program he describes is in the DIA not CIA. Secondly, the book could have stood alone without the hype splashed on the cover. If his credentials are what he says they are, his reputation should speak for it, not vice versa.Like most soldiers and especially guys who do intel, SF or black ops, Morehouse account of nearly losing his family are quite true. Members of these services pay a heavy price for an exciting non-24 hour jump, which usually means divorce and loss of custody of children. Morehouse is quite lucky to manage to find someone remarkably strong because, by and large, marriages in such a line of work "enjoy" higher than usual divorce rates and the ensuing screwed up children. The last thing I would add is Morehouse admission that his children are effected by his prolonged absence. This is absolutely true, my mother served and her prolonged absences had a very subtle but extremely dee

The finest work of non-fiction I've read this year.

I came upon Psychic Warrior quite by accident. It is not the sort of book I usually choose. As a literature major I was at first struck by the fact that a book written by a soldier was also remarkably lyrically written, dealing honestly and intelligently with all the issues of great literature - morality, conscience, duty, love and human excellence and weakness. I got caught up in the poignant internal dialogue as if I were reading a wise yet thrilling novel. However, the author's clear and self-effacing honesty left no doubt in my mind that he was telling the truth. He tells HIS story, makes that clear, and does not pretend to tell the story from any point of view but that of a man who lived through extraordnary human events and paid a huge price for them. At a much simpler lever it is a story documenting the totally incomprehensible way our government can repay a lifetime of meritorious service once the chips are down. I've recently learned that this man is now travelling the world conducting remote viewing seminars, proving that remote viewing is something that everyone has the ability to do, and that anyone can learn. I have yet to take a seminar, but I can think of no better way to spend my vacation time this coming year. The title of the book "Psychic Warrior," is somewhat misleading. This is not a "new age" book as the title suggests. It is nothing less than the first work of a philosopher... a metaphysician in the making. I can't wait to see what Dr. Morehouse comes up with next.
