Art Bell reconnects with Major Ed Dames, a former military intelligence officer and trained remote viewer, who has spent five weeks in seclusion on the Big Island of Hawaii attempting to remote view Satan. Dames reports that Satan is a distinct entity separate from the devil, describing it as a glorious but cold crystalline white light being whose mind remains active on Earth through communication with subordinate forces.

Dames distinguishes between Satan, who exists far from Earth, and the devil, whom he identifies as a powerful angel operating as commander-in-chief of dark forces on the planet. He describes the devil's primary strategy as catalyzing war and hatred among humanity, exploiting extremism to maximize the destruction of human souls. According to his sessions, these entities cannot steal souls directly but work to engineer conditions where people extinguish their own through chronic sin.

The discussion turns to the Antichrist, which Dames says has shifted from a general field effect to a specific individual, a male child born the previous year under horrific circumstances. Dames also reveals current satanic strategies involving a Middle Eastern assassination plot and a biological warfare facility that the devil appears to oversee as a personal project.

Key Moments

  1. Confluence of ecological collapse: Dames tells Bell that four years earlier his team's topical search on 'the quickening' produced starving seabirds as a key signature. Now, with mass die-offs of blackbirds, geese, and seabirds in the news, he says no more predictive work is needed - it's an in-your-face thing now.

  2. How remote viewing tells idea from entity: Dames explains the methodology: when remote viewers run the same search term repeatedly, a concept like 'evil' produces different scenes with the same theme, while a discrete entity produces the same coherent pattern every time - a litmus test he applied to the word Satan.

  3. The Antichrist is no longer a field effect: Dames revises a remote viewing result he gave Bell two years earlier. The Antichrist is no longer a latent potential in all human beings - it is now a specific living human male, fixed in time by what Dames calls cosmic wisdom.

  4. A throwaway newborn in a dumpster: Dames describes the child his viewers locate when they search the term Antichrist: born last year, discarded in a dumpster by his mother and left to die, retrieved by 'the system,' and destined to project his self-loathing outward and especially toward women.
