Remote Viewing

What do you guys think of it?

The official website (I think) is at http://www.trv.com/

Theres a lot of videos on it, and then a store with some expensive training packages...

That Donahue guy who makes a bunch of crazy predictions is a self-admitted remote viewer, but... this all sounds like a giant money scam. Or a less popular Scientology

.

I wasn't sure where to put this, it's not technically a religion I suppose, but it seemed like the best place.

1) Wrong forum

2) Pen&Teller's Bullshit! has answered this question. The answer is hidden in the show's name, can you spot it?

Edit: The right forum would be Paranoid Delusions/Half-Baked/SG

"Remote viewing" comes from Scientology. The guys that convinced the CIA to fund their mind-power experiments, were all scientologists.

[Viraljimmy]

"Two Scientologists, Hal Puthoff and Ingo Swann, researched remote viewing at Stanford Research Institute for the CIA in the 1970s. Most of the SRI team, including project director Puthoff, and the CIA's star "psychic spies", Price and Swann, were Scientologists, a fact that skeptic Martin Gardner noted disparagingly. Puthoff and Swann were Operating Thetan (OT) level seven, and credited Scientology with their success in the CIA remote viewing program."
