RAEL FACTS: HIS BOOK vs. INTERVIEW

There is a book by a respected French journalist, René Pacaut titled “They Met Extraterrestrials” (Ils ont rencontré des extra-terrestres, 1978) which is a collection of interviews of so-called “contactees” of the 1970s. One of the interviewees was Claude Vorilhon, Rael.

Rael's account from that interview, however, was in contradiction with what he wrote in several instances in his first book, “The Book Which Tells the Truth” (Le Livre qui dit la vérité, 1974).


WRONG LOCATION
In his book, Rael relates that on the 13th of December 1973, he went to a volcano overlooking Clermont-Ferrand in central southern France. He wrote:
I went more to get a breath of fresh air than to take a drive in my car. My legs were itching after a full year following the races from circuit to circuit, almost always living on four wheels, so to speak ... [ ]... I walked and jogged a little and left the path where my car was parked, aiming to reach the center of the crater called Puy-de-Lassolas where I often went for picnics with my family in the summer (Intelligent Design, p. 3).
However, in the interview, Rael said:
"I had just returned from the Tour de Corse automobile, and I felt tired, depressed. To escape this depression, I suddenly decided to get in my car and drive towards the Puy de la Vache. (They Met Extraterrestrials, p. 191)”
It is interesting to note that in earlier renditions of his book, there used to be a footnote stating how Rael had indeed made a mistake in identifying the location.



WRONG BELIEF IN UFOs and MEASUREMENTS
In his book, Rael writes:
“By now, the object was about twenty meters above the ground, and I could see it had a somewhat flattened shape. It was a flying saucer. I had always believed in their existence, but I had never dreamed I would actually see one. It measured some seven meters in diameter, about 2.5 meters in height, was flat underneath and cone-shaped ...[ ]... on closer inspection, looked more like a flattened bell with a full and bulging underside. (p. 5, 7).
However, in the interview, Rael said:
“It was only when he stopped two meters above the ground, about twenty meters from me, that I noticed that it had the shape of a huge bell, 4 meters high. and a diameter of 7 meters. He had the color of silver metal ...[ ]... I was, in any case, a hundred leagues away from suspecting the existence of UFOs and aliens. All this made me, for me, part of the realm of dreams (p. 190, 191).”
It is interesting to note that Rael has never mentioned “silver metal” or “metallic” to describe the alleged flying saucer he saw at that time in his book.


WRONG VOICE & QUESTION
In his book, Rael describes the extraterrestrial's voice and what he asked the visitor:
“Thinking that I had to find out if he could hear me, I asked: ‘Where do you come from?’
He answered in a strong, articulate voice that was slightly nasal: ‘From very far away.’ ‘Do you speak French?’ I enquired
(p. 6)”.
However, in the interview, Rael said:
“Encouraged, I asked him, at random: 'Where are you from?' To my amazement, he said in a deep voice, without the slightest accent: "From far away!" Emboldened by this answer, I asked him again: "What are you doing here (p. 190)?"
According to his book, Rael asked why the extraterrestrial was visiting only after asking a couple more questions: if it was the first time visiting and if so, how often it was.


WRONG DISTANCE
Later in his book, Rael writes how long it would take us to travel to the extraterrestrial's planet:
“Our planet is 30,000,000 parasangs away from Earth or about nine thousand billion kilometers, just a little less than a light year. By moving at the speed of light, or 300,000 kilometers per second, you would take almost one year to reach our planet. With your present day rockets, which travel at only 40,000 kilometers per hour, it would take you about 26,000 years to reach our planet (p. 89).”
However, the interviewer reported:
This is how his interlocutor will teach him that the planet from which he originates is located a light-year away from Earth, that is to say at a distance such that with the fastest of our rockets we would take 90,000 years to reach it (p. 192).

WRONG SEQUENCE OF COLORS
In his book, Rael writes how the flying saucer changed color as it took off:
“Because the sky was clearer this time, I was able to watch more closely as it took off. It hovered motionless at a height of about 400 meters, then still without the slightest sound, the vessel turned red as if it was heating up, then as white as white-hot metal, and then finally a sort of bluish purple like an enormous spark, which was impossible to look at. Then it disappeared completely (p. 25).”
However, the interviewer reported:
Claude Vorilhon descended [the flying saucer], and soon, the "bell" rose vertically by changing color. It went from electric blue to white then turns to bright red before getting lost in the clouds (p. 192).

Rael claims that his books enshrine the truth and that nothing has been changed in the script:
“Our world has continued to change very rapidly during that period, always in the direction of the revealed information I was first given in the early to mid 1970s. That is why the books are reproduced unchanged here to demonstrate that the extraordinary truths first revealed three decades ago are being gradually and successively proven by new scientific discoveries and developments (p. 364).”
It is evident, however, that Rael has had different versions of the “truth” in the various interviews before and after the release on his books. Check out the Maryse Péloquin Video Files that highlight many other discrepancies in Rael's verbal testimonies in the earlier days of creating his career as a doomsday cult leader dressed up as a utopian visionary for all of humanity.
