It was in 2003 that I came up with an idea for spreading the Raelian message based on the movie, "<i>The Matrix</i>" <br>
<br>
The basic premise? <br>
<br>
That the Raelians had discovered the ultimate of truths and in doing so we had escaped the Matrix. (In this context the Matrix represented the world we live in, where people are sleepwalking through life completely unaware of the truth of their existence) <br>
<br>
Dressed in character we took to the streets with the purpose of finding others who might be ready to escape this 'Matrix.' <br>
<br>
7 years later I have discovered that the Raelian Movement is not what we have been led to believe (after extensive investigation), that in fact it is the Raelians themselves who have fallen victim to a very clever illusion... <br>
<br>
Are you sufficiently open minded to question your existing paradigms? Or are you a sleepwalker - someone who finds their sleep very comfortable? <br>
<br>
If TRUTH matters, then read on to discover just how deep the rabbit hole goes...<br>

Original French message will follow.<br>
<br>
---------<br>
<br>
In 1978, I read Claude Vorilhon’s book “The book which tells the truth”. I lived all alone with this “truth…” which hunted me every day until 1981, because there was in these revelations some points that touched me a lot. In April 1981, I finally meet for the first time the Raelians. I loved those people a lot, they were marvelous and they still are.<br>
<br>
They convinced me to go to the awakening seminar in July of that same year. It is at this time that the adventure really began; I would rather say the misadventures which, with the 25 years that followed, would reveal to me the true personality of this being which pretend to be prophet, but is in every way the contrary of what a prophet should be. <br>
<br>
My actual experiences near him will unveil to me, as you will see, an individual who lies, who lacks a lot of love and respect for others. He is jealous, possessive, selfish, condescending and vindictive at a highest level, moreover manipulator, cheap, profiteer and racist. Here we go, I am finally able to reveal the faults of this individual that pretends to be prophet. So many faults in only one man! His status of prophet gives him respectability that he doesn’t deserve. He has the right to be like this, but not when you are in a situation of power over so many people, because it creates so much suffering. Since we give him so much value, everything he does is respected and taken for cash and we let him hurt us without reacting, except to justify his unkindness and his incoherencies. In the following, I will explain few situations and revelations that I witnessed and which will show you all the ignoble sides of this man.<br>

<br>
<span style="font-size: large;"><i>Dear Friends, </i></span><br>
<br>
I've received a number of calls and emails from people wondering why I am no longer involved in the Raelian Movement. For the most part, I've stayed silent while I did my research. It took me many months before I finally decided to write these words. During those months, I spent time doing quite a bit of thinking and observing in addition to some extensive research. I would have greatly appreciated it if someone had shared this information with me years ago, so I feel that it is my responsibility to at least make this available for those who might be open-minded enough to consider my words and do their own research. <br>
<br>
Some of you may already know that after serving for many years as a Guide, I formally resigned from the Raelian structure on November 9th, 2009. Then, on November 12th, just three days after my resignation, I was officially banned from all Raelian meetings, events, and seminars for seven years. I was never disrespectful toward anyone, and I have always lived very harmoniously according to the principles that are taught in the Messages, so being banned came as quite a surprise to me! <br>
<br>
I could go into more detail about exactly what happened, but I'll save that for the end in case anyone might still be interested. Personal stories can be important, but I believe that objective factual information should always be the top priority of anyone seeking the truth, especially in cases like this. The bottom line is simple: After 17 years of being very active in the Raelian Movement, I discovered factual information that made me ask questions which no Raelian Bishop or Guide was ever able to answer in a logical manner. The first and most important part of the information was found in the books of Jean Sendy. <br>
<br>
Many people have commented that they read some of Sendy's work and didn't understand my concerns. I want to make it clear that Sendy was a brilliant writer whose books are not easy to read. I found many points in his writings that felt very familiar to me because I had read the exact same points in Rael's books for years. I was even more surprised to learn that Jean Sendy gave a public lecture in Clermont-Ferrand (France) in March 1974. Then, later that year, Rael published his first book, The Book Which Tells The Truth. <br>
<br>
Rael always taught us to stand for truth, so I am now sharing this information in the light of Truth, Love, and Understanding. I am not accusing anyone of anything, but I am seeking a better understanding. So, if anyone can share a good explanation, I would be very happy! Thus far, the only explanations I have heard from high-ranking Raelians are based purely on belief and not on understanding. This is the opposite of all the teachings of Rael and the Messages. The Raelian teachings have always said that we should never believe or accept anything that doesn't make sense to us, no matter who says it, even if Rael says it himself. Rael has told us for years that we must always use our own consciousness and think for ourselves as individuals. If we are to truly think for ourselves, we should consider all the facts before coming to any conclusions. So, my intent here is simply to share the following information for those who might be interested. <br>

<span style="font-size: large;">The <i>International Raelian Movement's</i> (IRM) <a href="http://elohimembassy.org/faq/" target="_blank">ET Embassy website</a> claims there are "more than 100,000 members around the world" in a FAQ explaining what IRM is:</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Qfz9OorDqOI/XPSFxEcleNI/AAAAAAAABLk/MuorTVrSD5EhK0kFZw0seHnv5j1DRw0igCLcBGAs/s1600/100000%2Braelians.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-size: large;"><img border="0" data-original-height="188" data-original-width="1183" height="101" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Qfz9OorDqOI/XPSFxEcleNI/AAAAAAAABLk/MuorTVrSD5EhK0kFZw0seHnv5j1DRw0igCLcBGAs/s640/100000%2Braelians.png" width="640" /></span></a></div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Semantically, there's a difference between <b><i>Raelian Structure members</i></b> and "<i><b>simple Raelians</b></i>". While the latter are not required to join IRM, the former are individuals who have joined IRM. There are also national movements, the members of which are free to join IRM or not. However, according to the FAQ above, IRM claims to have <b>more than 100,000 Structure members</b> (as opposed to including "simple Raelians").</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">We can also differentiate Raelians by the amount of money they donate. According to Rael's book, all Raelians are commanded to pay 1% of their annual incomes to the <i><a href="https://raelian-truth.blogspot.com/2012/01/raelism-and-money-no-he-makes-nothing.html" target="_blank">Raelian Foundation</a></i>, the sole beneficiary of which is Rael (<i>Intelligent Design</i>, p. 358). National movement members are obligated to pay 3% of their annual incomes, while IRM members are required to pay an additional 7%. All IRM members are also members of their respective national chapters and therefore pay 11% in total.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Structure members are given "levels" ranging from 0 to 6 (Level 0 are initiates, while Level 6 is Rael) and are obligated not to deviate from any directive Rael gives them. Rael says "simple Raelians" are free to express themselves in any way they wish, but not Structure members. <a href="https://www.facebook.com/rael.maitreya" target="_blank">Rael's <i>Face Book</i> "friends"</a> are apparently all Structure members.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-NHEtNFIUO3A/XPSLeKI75fI/AAAAAAAABL4/gSSGUMyWGOkqU7me25xqAp87HS34IrazACLcBGAs/s1600/Rael%2BFB%2Bfriends.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-size: large;"><img border="0" data-original-height="574" data-original-width="1003" height="227" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-NHEtNFIUO3A/XPSLeKI75fI/AAAAAAAABL4/gSSGUMyWGOkqU7me25xqAp87HS34IrazACLcBGAs/s400/Rael%2BFB%2Bfriends.jpg" width="400" /></span></a></div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">However, <a href="https://raelianleaks.org/raelian-membership-sep-2017-email-report-from-leon-mellul/" target="_blank"><b>leaked internal documents</b></a> present a very different picture. A Level 5 Raelian Bishop Guide, <a href="https://www.facebook.com/ariel.l.mellul" target="_blank">Leon Mellul</a>, sent out an email dated October 1, 2017, reporting the latest stats in IRM's database (as of September, 2017).</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">All Raelians, whether Structure members or not, need to get baptized in order to be recognized as followers of Rael. Such a ritual is called "<i>Transmission of the Cellular Plan</i>" (TCP). The records below show that there has been only <b>21,168</b> TCPs since 1973 when Rael created his cult.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-SOKXrYII34s/XPSOCRtN_8I/AAAAAAAABMM/MLlH-hTJOnIcMxGRtujgX2_UWDBFIVrwgCLcBGAs/s1600/transmission%2Brecords.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-size: large;"><img border="0" data-original-height="487" data-original-width="617" height="315" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-SOKXrYII34s/XPSOCRtN_8I/AAAAAAAABMM/MLlH-hTJOnIcMxGRtujgX2_UWDBFIVrwgCLcBGAs/s400/transmission%2Brecords.png" width="400" /></span></a></div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">This means there can't be more than 100,000 Raelians worldwide, let alone Structure members. IRM has consistently been <a href="https://raelian-truth.blogspot.com/2012/01/where-are-rest-of-85000-raelians.html" target="_blank">inflating membership numbers</a> to the public.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Below is a breakdown of different categories of Raelians:</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-iYiSX5eaN78/XPSPag1dbgI/AAAAAAAABMY/TLAtnoIg2ewsa7EUQ2eJKA1AKPL-f1gCQCLcBGAs/s1600/worldwide%2Bdatabase.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-size: large;"><img border="0" data-original-height="795" data-original-width="511" height="400" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-iYiSX5eaN78/XPSPag1dbgI/AAAAAAAABMY/TLAtnoIg2ewsa7EUQ2eJKA1AKPL-f1gCQCLcBGAs/s400/worldwide%2Bdatabase.png" width="255" /></span></a></div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">"<b><i>Prospects</i></b>" aren't Raelians; they are anyone who have signed their names when attending Raelian conferences and/or gatherings, downloaded Raelian e-books, etc. but didn't get their TCPs done. This figure is closest to the inflated "official" stats and could be the basis for IRM's deception.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">The next two categories, "<b><i>Raelians (non-structure)</i></b>" and "<b><i>Members</i></b>", aren't very well defined. It could be the former are people who got baptized, but didn't join local national movements.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">We can see that there were only <b>2,665</b> Structure members worldwide, contrary to what Rael claims how many Face Book "friends" he has. It's interesting to note that almost an equal number of people quit the Structures over time. That's a far cry from the official stat of "more than 100,000 members."</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">If we ignore the "prospects" and add up the next three categories, we get a total of only <b>18,111</b> Raelians worldwide as of September, 2017. If we count the rest, i.e. people who have been "suspended", "excluded", or quit, we get a total of <b>5,300</b> people who were once Raelians.</span><br />

<div>
The <i>International Raelian Movement</i> (IRM) is trying again to ride on the coattails of the recent UFO hype stirred up by mainstream media.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
On May 30, 2019, IRM published a <a href="http://www.raelpress.org/news.php?item.492.1" target="_blank">press release</a> about a recent New York Times' <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2019/05/26/us/politics/ufo-sightings-navy-pilots.html" target="_blank">article</a> spotlighting a US Navy's F/A-18 Super Hornet pilot, Lt. Ryan Graves, who reported observing UFOs. Pilots from the aircraft carrier Roosevelt made repeated observations of strange objects like a "spinning top'' surrounded by a "glowing aura" flying over the East Coast that could allegedly fly at hypersonic speeds, make swift stops and turns, reach 30,000 feet in altitude, and fly all day long without apparent engine or exhaust plumes. According to them, such technology assembled in one craft simply doesn’t yet exist, implying the objects were alien spacecrafts.<br />
<br />
An infrared (<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AN/ASQ-228_ATFLIR" target="_blank">ATFLIR</a>) video taken on January 20, 2015, was released by the US Defense Department's secretive <i><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Aerospace_Threat_Identification_Program" target="_blank">Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program</a></i> [1] in late 2017 that seems to back up the anecdotal claims made by Lt. Graves above. The New York Times ran an <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2017/12/16/us/politics/pentagon-program-ufo-harry-reid.html" target="_blank">article</a> about it at that time written by the same authors. The <a href="https://youtu.be/tf1uLwUTDA0" target="_blank"><b>video</b></a> in question is being widely circulated with the title GIMBAL since the infrared camera was mounted on a <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gimbal" target="_blank">gimbal</a> pod that can rotate in any direction.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
It isn't apparent whether Lt. Graves was one of the pilots in the video. The conversation heard in the video is very casual and does not use military protocol, indicating that it might have been taken during a training exercise for rookies. The transcript attached to the video opens with, "<i>It's a fucking drone, bro!</i>" followed with "<i>There's a whole fleet of them! Look on the ASA</i>." At one point, one of them says, "<i>It's rotating!</i>"</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /><iframe width="320" height="266" class="YOUTUBE-iframe-video" data-thumbnail-src="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/tf1uLwUTDA0/0.jpg" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/tf1uLwUTDA0?feature=player_embedded" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
After a thorough investigation by <a href="https://www.metabunk.org/nyt-gimbal-video-of-u-s-navy-jet-encounter-with-unknown-object.t9333/" target="_blank"><b>Metabunk</b></a>, it was concluded that the object is most probably another jet (or, drone). The apparent "glowing spinning top" was due to the long distance and infrared glare caused by a twin jet engine. The rotation is consistent with how spikes in a glare artifact would rotate when viewed by a gimbal FLIR camera following a curved trajectory.<br />
<br /></div>
<div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<iframe allowfullscreen="" class="YOUTUBE-iframe-video" data-thumbnail-src="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/oO5dP3sF2sw/0.jpg" frameborder="0" height="266" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/oO5dP3sF2sw?feature=player_embedded" width="320"></iframe></div>
<br /></div>
<div>
There are no other visual evidence that corroborates the fantastic claims made by Lt. Graves except for <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wxVRg7LLaQA" target="_blank"><b>another video</b></a> that was released shortly after the <i>GIMBAL</i> video titled <i>GO FAST</i>. In it, we can just observe a small dot darting in a straight line showing nothing significant or unearthly. It's likely it's a balloon rather than a jet plane, since it doesn't have a heat signature. Again, the conversation heard does not maintain military protocol and is very casual.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Thrown into the mix of this naval UFO hype is <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6rWOtrke0HY" target="_blank"><b>yet another video</b></a> titled <i>FLIR1</i> taken way back in 2004 using a similar infrared camera setup. It's known as the <i><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Nimitz_UFO_incident" target="_blank">USS Nimitz UFO incident</a></i>. The Washington Post published an <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/checkpoint/wp/2017/12/18/former-navy-pilot-describes-encounter-with-ufo-studied-by-secret-pentagon-program/?utm_term=.9a1159f6449d" target="_blank">article</a> about it just days after the New York Times first broke the news about the black project in late 2017. Cmdr. David Fravor claimed in an interview with <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EDj9ZZQY2kA" target="_blank">Fox News</a> he saw a flying object about the size of his plane that looked like a <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tic_Tac" target="_blank">Tic Tac</a> after a break in a routine training mission. The object moved rapidly and unlike any other thing he had ever seen in the air. Apparently, Cmdr. Fravor's account was just a recollection of the incident and that he wasn't the one who had taken the video.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<iframe allowfullscreen="" class="YOUTUBE-iframe-video" data-thumbnail-src="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/nIl4peYb59E/0.jpg" frameborder="0" height="266" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/nIl4peYb59E?feature=player_embedded" width="320"></iframe></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Again, <b><a href="https://www.metabunk.org/2004-uss-nimitz-tic-tac-ufo-flir-footage-flir1.t9190/" target="_blank">Metabunk</a></b> did a thorough investigation and concluded that the footage is consistent with a distant jet plane flying away from the camera. At the end of the video it gently drifts off to the left, either making a turn or due to the camera lock drifting. A sudden jump between 1x and 2x zoom makes this look vastly more dramatic than it actually is.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The Raelian press release tries to insinuate that alien spacecrafts deliberately showed themselves to these naval pilots in order to bring to them a "message of peace" before they were deployed to the Persian Gulf to drop bombs over Syria and Iraq.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
In reality, IRM is just taking advantage of the media hype related to UFO sightings (as they always do) to advance their belief that aliens called the Elohim of the Bible scientifically created all life on Earth and that they would appear more and more in our skies in order to increase awareness and facilitate their ongoing efforts of promoting an official encounter at an Embassy dedicated to welcoming them officially. Fortunately, these UFO sightings eventually generate more conventional evidence that show the objects to be misidentified normal aerial phenomena. UFOs do not automatically equate to alien spacecraft.<br />

[1] Apparently the ex-chief of the <i>Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program</i>, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luis_Elizondo" target="_blank">Luis Elizondo</a>, resigned from the Pentagon in October 2017. Subsequently, he joined this organization created in 2015 by musician, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_DeLonge" target="_blank">Tom DeLonge</a>, "<a href="https://dpo.tothestarsacademy.com/" target="_blank">To the Stars Academy of Arts & Sciences</a>". The government black project lost funding in 2012 (but is still apparently operational), and this new venture may have had the potential of becoming a lucrative option for Elizondo and other retired people of the Department of Defense to get behind and "disclose" the officially released videos. This <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TmEXDlIFtWA" target="_blank">video</a> outlines the connection between the Elizondo and DeLonge.<br />

<br />
The following documents the progress of Phase 1 according to the press releases by the<i> International Raelian Movement </i>(IRM). As with the <i>Pleasure Hospital </i>spearheaded by the <i><a href="https://raelian-truth.blogspot.com/2013/02/clitoraid-watch-arrested-development.html" target="_blank">CLITORAID project</a></i>, the ET Embassy project also seems to be lagging behind.<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><a href="http://www.raelpress.org/comment.php?comment.news.408" target="_blank">March 31, 2015</a></i></b></span> - “project file” handed to the White House and the United Nations Council of Foreign Affairs. Copies of the file given to the U.S. State Department; to French, German and other European foreign ministers; and to "many other" government officials around the world.<br />
<br />
<b><i><span style="font-size: large;"><a href="http://www.raelpress.org/comment.php?comment.news.441" target="_blank">March 30, 2016</a></span></i></b> - “Optional Protocol Concerning Embassies for Extraterrestrials” handed to United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon. Official request for extraterritoriality of the embassy made to President Vladimir Putin and Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev. Requested Secretary General Ban Ki-moon to propose a conference of all nations that are parties to the Vienna convention for the purpose of discussing the draft protocol, and to call for offers to host it.”<br />
<br />
<b><i><span style="font-size: large;"><a href="http://www.raelpress.org/comment.php?comment.news.457" target="_blank">March 30, 2017</a></span></i></b> - ET Embassy Project <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20190705231540/http://elohimembassy.org:80/timeline/" target="_blank">timeline</a> announced. <br />

<b><i><span style="font-size: large;"><a href="http://www.raelpress.org/comment.php?comment.news.474" target="_blank">March 28, 2018</a></span></i></b> - “Several countries" have shown a genuine interest, but this year, "one country" has invited IRM representatives to discuss the project.

<br />
<b><i><span style="font-size: large;"><a href="http://www.raelpress.org/comment.php?comment.news.489" target="_blank">April 2, 2019</a></span></i></b> - On-going negotiations for the past year with the "first country" to consider hosting an Embassy for Extraterrestrials. Solicited the United Nations to organize the first International conference to discuss the optional protocol. “Several countries" still show a genuine interest in the project.<br />
<br />
We are yet to be informed of the names of the countries that have shown genuine interest and more importantly, the one country that has invited IRM to discuss the project. It is very convenient not to disclose names and rather just make bold claims.<br />
<br />
It is interesting to ask why IRM hasn't ever disclosed the <a href="https://raelianleaks.org/seychelles-government-interested-in-embassy/" target="_blank">Seychelles Government's interest</a> in the embassy project dating back to March 2000.<br />

There is a book by a respected French journalist, <i><a href="https://data.bnf.fr/fr/12629467/rene_pacaut/" target="_blank">René Pacaut</a> </i>titled “<i>They Met Extraterrestrials</i>” (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. <br />
<br />
Rael's account from that interview, however, was in contradiction with what he wrote in several instances in his first book, “<i>The Book Which Tells the Truth</i>” (Le Livre qui dit la vérité, 1974). <br />
<br />
<br />
<i><b><span style="font-size: large;">WRONG LOCATION </span></b></i><br />
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:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<i>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 <b><span style="color: red;">Puy-de-Lassolas</span></b> where I often went for picnics with my family in the summer </i>(Intelligent Design, p. 3).</blockquote>
However, in the interview, Rael said:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<i>"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 <b><span style="color: red;">Puy de la Vache.</span></b> </i>(They Met Extraterrestrials, p. 191)”</blockquote>
It is interesting to note that in earlier renditions of his book, there used to be a <a href="https://raelian-truth.blogspot.com/2012/01/puy-de-la-vache-puy-de-lassola-puy-de.html" target="_blank">footnote</a> stating how Rael had indeed made a mistake in identifying the location. <br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-5qljtF7i9dg/XMxC_GQ01dI/AAAAAAAABK0/i1ZIx1AmHm0YVUsUdYyUC8AndJUbc0WUgCEwYBhgL/s1600/rpacout%2Btranscript.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="613" data-original-width="891" height="440" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-5qljtF7i9dg/XMxC_GQ01dI/AAAAAAAABK0/i1ZIx1AmHm0YVUsUdYyUC8AndJUbc0WUgCEwYBhgL/s640/rpacout%2Btranscript.png" width="640" /></a></div>
<b><i><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></i></b>
<b><i><span style="font-size: large;">WRONG BELIEF IN UFOs and MEASUREMENTS </span></i></b><br />
In his book, Rael writes:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<i>“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. <span style="color: red;"><b>I had always believed in their existence</b></span>, but I had never dreamed I would actually see one. It measured some seven meters in diameter, <b><span style="color: red;">about 2.5 meters in height</span></b>, was flat underneath and cone-shaped ...[ ]... on closer inspection, looked more like a <b><span style="color: red;">flattened bell</span></b> with a full and bulging underside. </i>(p. 5, 7).</blockquote>
However, in the interview, Rael said:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<i>“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 <b><span style="color: red;">a huge bell, </span><span style="color: red;">4 meters high</span></b>. and a diameter of 7 meters. He had the color of silver metal ...[ ]... <span style="color: red;"><b>I was, in any case, a hundred leagues away from suspecting the existence of UFOs and aliens</b></span>. All this made me, for me, part of the realm of dreams</i> (p. 190, 191).”</blockquote>
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. <br />
<br />
<br />
<b><i><span style="font-size: large;">WRONG VOICE & QUESTION </span></i></b><br />
In his book, Rael describes the extraterrestrial's voice and what he asked the visitor:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<i>“Thinking that I had to find out if he could hear me, I asked: ‘Where do you come from?’<br />He answered <b><span style="color: red;">in a strong, </span></b><span style="color: red;"><b>articulate voice that was slightly nasal</b></span>: ‘From very far away.’ ‘<b><span style="color: red;">Do you speak French</span></b>?’ I enquired </i>(p. 6)”.</blockquote>
However, in the interview, Rael said:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<i>“Encouraged, I asked him, at random: 'Where are you from?' To my amazement, he said <span style="color: red;"><b>in a deep voice, without the slightest accent</b></span>: "From far away!" Emboldened by this answer, I asked him again: "<span style="color: red;"><b>What are you doing here</b></span> </i>(p. 190)?"</blockquote>
According to his book, Rael asked why the extraterrestrial was visiting <b><u>only after</u></b> asking a couple more questions: if it was the first time visiting and if so, how often it was. <br />
<br />
<br />
<div>
<i><b><span style="font-size: large;">WRONG DISTANCE</span></b></i><br />
Later in his book, Rael writes how long it would take us to travel to the extraterrestrial's planet:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<i>“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, <span style="color: red;"><b>it would take you about 26,000 years to reach our planet</b></span> </i>(p. 89).”</blockquote>
However, the interviewer reported:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<i>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 <b><span style="color: red;">we would take 90,000 years to reach it</span></b></i> (p. 192). </blockquote>
<br /></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>WRONG SEQUENCE OF COLORS </i></b></span><br />
In his book, Rael writes how the flying saucer changed color as it took off:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<i>“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, <span style="color: red;"><b>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</b></span>. Then it disappeared completely </i>(p. 25).”</blockquote>
However, the interviewer reported:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<i>Claude Vorilhon descended [the flying saucer], and soon, the "bell" rose vertically by changing color. <span style="color: red;"><b>It went from electric blue to white then turns to bright red before getting lost in the clouds</b></span></i><span style="color: red;"><b> </b></span>(p. 192). </blockquote>
<br />
Rael claims that his books enshrine the truth and that nothing has been changed in the script:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<i>“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 </i>(p. 364).”</blockquote>
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 <i><a href="https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLYil1Xi792enZLPNscUKT-DTyWcT9ybv9" target="_blank">Maryse Péloquin Video Files</a></i> 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. Check out also, Maryse Péloquin's book, “<i><a href="https://raelian-truth.blogspot.com/2018/02/rael-thief-of-souls-biography-of-liar.html" target="_blank">RAEL: The Thief of Souls: Biography of a Liar</a></i>” (Raël: Voleur d'âmes: Biographie d'un menteur, 2004) <br />

In previous iterations of the Raelian
Movement's <a href="https://elohimembassy.org/" target="_blank">Elohim Embassy</a> website, they used to showcase two UFO
sighting incidents that have been thoroughly debunked. Check out:
<a href="https://raelian-truth.blogspot.com/2012/01/raelian-embassy-zero-progress.html" target="_blank">Raelian Embassy: ZERO PROGRESS</a>.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
In their latest iteration, they have a
page titled “Evidence”, under which they have two categories: UFO
and Crop Circles.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
I have already addressed their claims
of crop circles as being created by the Elohim. They speculate that
crop circles are a gentle, playful and thought-provoking strategy
aimed at preparing us for an official contact with an
extraterrestrial civilization. Check out: <a href="https://raelian-truth.blogspot.com/2012/01/crop-circles-and-raelism.html" target="_blank">CROP CIRCLES and RAELISM</a>.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
Under the “<a href="https://elohimembassy.org/ufo/" target="_blank">UFO</a>” section, they admit
that “some UFO sightings are mistakes and some are fakes, but there
are many that are very credible” as being the Elohim's spacecrafts.
They claim “reliable information on unidentified flying objects
(UFOs) is available from a number of sources.” They define reliable
sources as policemen, pilots, astronauts and former high-ranking
government and military officials.</div>

<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<b><i><span style="font-size: large;">Paul Hellyer</span></i></b></div>
The ET Embassy site names Paul Hellyer as a credible source for
their claim that the Elohim are real.<br />
<br />
However, in an <a href="https://ca.news.yahoo.com/blogs/dailybrew/former-canadian-defence-minister-paul-hellyer-says-aliens-205829262.html" target="_blank">interview with RT</a> (formerly Russia Today) in 2014,
characterized by Yahoo News as "sadly hard to take seriously",
Hellyer said that at least four species of aliens have been visiting
Earth for thousands of years, with most of them coming from other
star systems, although there are some living on Venus, Mars and
Saturn’s moon. According to him, they "don't think we are good
stewards of our planet."<br />
<br />
The trouble is, Rael claims that no other ETs other than the
Elohim have been visiting Earth.<br />
<br />
<br />
<b><i><span style="font-size: large;">Sir Winston Churchill</span></i></b><br />
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
The ET Embassy site claims that Winston
Churchill conspired with General Dwight Eisenhower to ban the
reporting of UFO incidents for fifty years as a cover up.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br />
Turns out, that claim is a <a href="https://winstonchurchill.hillsdale.edu/no-panic-ufo-sightings/" target="_blank">3rd personaccount from the grandson</a> of an RAF service man. There’s no
official records to back up the claim.
</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<b><i><span style="font-size: large;">Dr. Edgar Mitchell</span></i></b></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
The current ET Embassy website notes
this in reference to Dr. Edward Mitchell as confessing, “The UFO
phenomenon is real, though it has been covered up by our governments
for a very long time” as evidence of the Elohim.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
Turns out, on July 25, 2008, Mitchell
clarified that his comments did not involve NASA [as covering up
evidence] but quoted unnamed sources, since deceased, at Roswell who
confided to him that the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roswell_UFO_incident" target="_blank">Roswell incident</a> did involve an alien craft.
Mitchell also claims to have subsequently received confirmation from
an unnamed intelligence officer at the Pentagon.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
In <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edgar_Mitchell#Views_on_UFOs" target="_blank">an interview for AskMen</a> published
March 6, 2014, Mitchell said that he had never seen a UFO, that no
one had ever threatened him over his claims regarding UFOs, and that
any statements about the covering up of UFOs being a worldwide cabal
was "just speculation on my part".</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
What is Rael's opinion on the Roswell
incident?... he says they are manufactured propaganda by the
governments and hollywood to sensationalize UFOs as being alien
invaders, thus discrediting Mitchell's speculations.<br />

<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
The Phoenix Lights, as it is better
known, were <a href="https://www.skeptic.com/eskeptic/08-05-21/#feature" target="_blank">actually 2 events</a> on the same night: the first a

Shirley Maclaine’s house.
</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
Kucinich admits what he saw was
“<a href="https://youtu.be/gSRWRbuMqyc" target="_blank">something unidentified</a>” and then joked about opening a campaign

The ET Embassy site lastly mentions
Jimmy Carter as witnessing an alien spacecraft.
</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
Carter denies what he saw was an alien
spacecraft. Additionally, the US Air Force sponsored a project that
studied the upper atmosphere using releases of glowing chemical
clouds, produced by rockets launched from Eglin AFB rocket range in
Florida. Some of these chemical clouds, notably sodium and barium,
were visible by the process of resonance scattering of sunlight.
<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jimmy_Carter_UFO_incident" target="_blank">Documents confirm</a> the launch of a barium cloud in Carter’s vicinity
during his “sighting”.

<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">

Looks like the ET Embassy site has
nothing but FAKE NEWS to support their claims about the Elohim existing and wanting to “return” to Earth.</div>

Rael maintains that he had an encounter with an extraterrestrial, named Yahweh, on 13 December 1973 (Intelligent Design, p. 3) near his hometown of Clermont-Ferrand, France.<br />
<br />Rael claims that he meet Yahweh, the president of ETs known as the Elohim of the Bible, at the same place for six consecutive days, for about one hour each time, who dictated to Rael the fantastic revelations of his first book, <i>The Book Which Tells The Truth</i> (Intelligent Design, p. 136). Yahweh allegedly revealed to him that the Elohim created all life on Earth through genetic engineering.<div class="page" title="Page 160">
<div class="layoutArea">
<div class="column">
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Rael wrote:</div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<i>For the first few days following this experience I must confess I wondered if I would dare tell anyone at all about it. The first thing I did was to make a neat copy of the notes that I had taken as best I could, although far too quickly as my interlocutor spoke to me. When this was finished, I sent the original manuscript to a serious publisher who to my knowledge did not publish esoteric works or science fiction. </i>(Intelligent Design, p. 137)</blockquote>
Rael's first book didn't roll off the printing press until the autumn of 1974 (the <a href="https://raelian-truth.blogspot.com/2017/12/raels-earliest-editions-of-his-1st-book.html" target="_blank">oldest version of his book</a> was published in 5 November 1974). That's almost eleven months after his alleged encounter!<br />
<br />
In order to explain away why it took so long for his book to come out, Rael elaborated a conspiracy theory claiming the publisher to whom he sent his manuscript probably wanted to repress his work by telling him it had been mislaid. After finally retrieving his manuscript, Rael alleges that his wife at the time, <i><a href="https://culteducation.com/group/1106-raelians/17521-i-was-married-to-clone-cult-leader-rael-15-years-he-wrecked-my-life-and-our-childrens.html" target="_blank">Marie-Paule Christini</a></i>, had left her nursing job to help him with the publishing and distribution of this exceptional document (Intelligent Design, p. 138).<br />
<br />
Oddly enough, in an interview with a French journalist, Marie-Paule iterated that she had been unaware of his extraterrestrial encounters until the book came out (Aliens Adored, p. 36).<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Rael himself had given up publishing his sports magazine, <i><a href="https://raelian-truth.blogspot.com/2014/02/auto-pop-and-1973-oil-crisis.html" target="_blank">AutoPop</a></i>, by that time. The last edition of his magazine was published in September 1974. It should be noted that in "on November 30, 1973, French prime minister Pierre Messmer announced on TV a series of drastic measures to limit speed on French roads and to suspend all automobile races and rallies. [Rael's] sources of funding, both his journal, Auto Pop, and his test driving, were cut off." (Aliens Adored, p. 34)<br /><br />To date, Rael has failed to produce his neat handwritten notes and the original manuscript.<div>

There is, however, <a href="https://raelian-truth.blogspot.com/2012/01/raels-story-came-from-drunken-night-out.html" target="_blank">anecdotal evidence</a> of Rael concocting an ET encounter hoax over drinks with some friends in 1973, which lead to the genesis of his elaborate Elohim story. One of his friends claimed that Rael then went to his hometown's news publication, <i>La Montagne</i>, to tell his story. After being dismissed, Rael allegedly went to Paris where he somehow got in touch with <i>Marcel Jullian</i>, who ran a publishing house. Through him, Rael was introduced to <i>Jacques Chancel</i>, who hosted a popular TV show called <i><a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Le_Grand_%C3%89chiquier" target="_blank">Le Grand Échiquier</a></i> (Great Chess Board).</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div>
On 13 March 1974, Rael appeared on that show and officially kicked off his public career as the Messenger of the Elohim.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
It's very curious to note that, between 1 to 10 March 1974, Clermont-Ferrand hosted the First National Congress of Science Fiction (<i>Premier Congres National de Scie</i>nce-Fiction). One of the speakers was <i><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jean_Sendy" target="_blank">Jean Sendy</a></i>, a famous author of esoterica and UFOlogy and a proponent of the ancient astronaut theory, who gave a lecture about his book, <i>The Moon: Key to the Bible</i>. Sociologist Susan Palmer notes: <br /><blockquote class="tr_bq">
<i>The ancient astronaut theory was already very much in vogue in France by the time Rael’s first book came out in 1974. Jean Sendy in 1968, Serge Hutin in 1970, and Jaques Bergier in 1970 all wrote books pursuing the notion that planet earth was an ancient colonial outpost of an extraterrestrial civilization. Sendy’s book, La lune: Clé de la Bible (The moon: Key to the Bible), is perhaps the seminal influence, but Sendy himself (1972, 53) credits Voltaire as being the first to insist that the God of Genesis, who made heaven and earth, should be translated as “gods.” Sendy (7–8) also points out that in Hebrew “Elohim” is the plural form of “Eloha” and suggests that the Elohim were not immaterial beings but “physical angels with sexes.” With this premise in mind, he concludes that “Genesis becomes a perfectly consistent story of a colonization of Earth by astronauts who came from the sky” and became “angels in human memory.” Yahweh, Sendy suggests, was not an immaterial principle but rather the leader of the Elohim (63)</i> (Aliens Adored, p. 28)</blockquote>
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div>
It has been demonstrated that the majority of Rael's first book was <a href="https://raelian-truth.blogspot.com/2012/02/comparison-between-jean-sendys-books.html" target="_blank">plagiarized</a> from Jean Sendy's works. Nowhere except in Sendy's writings do we find the notion of a plural Elohim and singular Eloha equating to "<i>Those who came from the sky</i>" prior to Rael's books.</div>

Rael admits in his book that he had always believed in extraterrestrials, UFOs and telepathy (Intelligent Design, pp. 5-7). So, one wouldn't be surprised if Rael was already aware of Sendy's as well as other's works on the ancient astronaut theory before coming out in public claiming to be a bona fide ET contactee.<br /><br />It wasn't before appearing on TV that Rael thought he could make a career of being a UFO cult leader. It isn't a coincidence that Jean Sendy's lecture was delivered on 4 March 1974 and Rael's TV appearance on 13 March 1974. With the realization of his <i>AutoPop</i> and hopes of becoming a racing car driver dying, Rael must have had some months to toy around the notion of becoming a cult leader before finally publishing his first book on 5 November 1974 by himself.</div>

Any respectable author would preserve his notes, let alone his original manuscript of a book he claims to be one containing the extraordinary TRUTH.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-pF5jyrMpdkw/WzCaOBb6L2I/AAAAAAAABIU/VAFrzSDBsr4JBGXzfcF2v52EjEwzYQSqQCLcBGAs/s1600/intervention.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="600" data-original-width="960" height="250" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-pF5jyrMpdkw/WzCaOBb6L2I/AAAAAAAABIU/VAFrzSDBsr4JBGXzfcF2v52EjEwzYQSqQCLcBGAs/s400/intervention.jpg" width="400"></a></div>
The Raelian Movement is a <i><u><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doomsday_cult" target="_blank">doomsday cult</a></u></i> that predicts that there is at least a 90% chance that humans on Earth will cease to exist due to a nuclear cataclysm in the near future.<br>
<br>
How this nuclear cataclysm will occur, however, has dramatically evolved in Raelian literature. It goes from:<br>
<div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
(1) ETs will intervene and nuke threatening Humans</blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
(2) ETs won't intervene, Humans instead will self-destruct, to</blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
(3) ETs will intervene after all, at least to delay the self-destruction and save Raelians</blockquote>
<br>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><i><b>DESTRUCTIVE INTERVENTION IN RESPONSE TO A HUMAN THREAT</b></i></span><br>
In Rael’s first book (<i>The Book which Tells the Truth</i>, 1974), the Elohim (extraterrestrials who supposedly created all life on Earth) said they would intervene and nuke us DIRECTLY or INDIRECTLY by blowing up stockpiles of our nuclear weapons if we posed a threat to them and other worlds in the galaxy. They mention intervening by using "rays" and "telepathy" to spark off a nuclear world war. (<i>Intelligent Design</i>, 2005, p. 105: please refer to the actual quotes at the bottom)<br>
<br>
On three separate pages, the Elohim invoke visions of <b><i><u><a href="https://raelian-truth.blogspot.com/2012/01/violence-and-raelism.html" target="_blank">Sodom and Gomorrah</a></u></i></b>, two cities they have nuked in the past because some humans were seen as a threat to them - unless we tame our aggression and become peaceful, the Elohim would “reduce [us] to silence”. (p. 92, 103, 105-106).<br>
<br>
Should we become successful in becoming peaceful and welcome the Elohim, they would reward us with their scientific knowledge, comparatively 25,000 years in advance of ours (p. 71, 75, 107).<br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>NON-INTERVENTION AND HUMANITY’S SELF-DESTRUCTION</i></b></span><br>
But, in Rael’s second book (<i>ETs Took Me to Their Planet</i>, 1975), perhaps after realizing how he had unwittingly painted the Elohim as a destructive force themselves the first time, he rebrands the Elohim to have a complete non-interventionist stance on the destruction of Humanity.<br>
<br>
Rael relates how Yahweh (his ET father and leader of the Elohim) delivering the second Message, first told him how he <b><i><u><a href="https://raelian-truth.blogspot.com/2012/01/raels-sloppy-but-amazing-note-taking.html" target="_blank">mis-transcribed</a></u></i></b> the passages about an eventual intervention on their part to destroy humanity. Instead, Humanity’s future is on its own hands and will self-destroy if it doesn’t become peaceful. (p. 150)<br>
<br>
<b><i><span style="font-size: large;">INTERVENTION TO SAVE <u>ONLY</u> THE RAELIANS</span></i></b><br>
The Elohim, however, will intervene on the fate of Raelians. Throughout Rael’s second book (1975) , he assures that only his followers will be saved in the event of an imminent nuclear cataclysm. (p. 150, 216-217, 298)<br>
<br>
<i><b><span style="font-size: large;">INTERVENTION TO ALSO SAVE IGNORANT SAMARITANS</span></b></i><br>
By his third book (<i>Let’s Welcome Our Fathers from Space</i>, 1979), Rael revealed how good non-Raelians totally ignorant of Rael and the Elohim will also be saved by the grace of the Elohim in the Q&A section of his book. (pp. 238-239) In the latter part of his book, Rael wrote about what the Elohim had told him to keep secret for three years. In it, Yahweh seems to affirm how good people who have never heard of Rael would also be saved. (p. 289)<br>
<br>
<i><b><span style="font-size: large;">CHANCE OF SELF-DESTRUCTION</span></b></i><br>
In Rael’s third book (1979), Rael mentions the chances of Humanity self-destructing. It ranges from 90% to 99%. (p. 286, 287, 291, 306) He, however, does <b><i>NOT</i></b> give us a timeline of when this cataclysmic event might occur, making that figure worthless as a prediction. A few years ago, Rael “revealed” that the <b><i><u><a href="https://raelian-truth.blogspot.com/2015/08/rael-fail-end-game.html" target="_blank">chance for self-destruction was at 99.5%</a>!</u></i></b><br>
<br>
<b><i><span style="font-size: large;">INTERVENTION TO DELAY SELF-DESTRUCTION OF HUMANS</span></i></b><br>
Whilst the Elohim declared earlier that they would never intervene in the destruction of Humanity, in Rael’s third book (1979), Rael writes about a special number of 144,000 people who would be saved by the Elohim. According to the Elohim, they will actually intervene after all to otherwise delay the final cataclysm until the number is reached. (p. 298-299) I would assume the Elohim intervening by using "rays" and "telepathy" to render our weapons harmless in this case and decelerate the horrific event Raelians believe is very likely to happen. This contradicts the Elohim’s non-interventionist stance in Rael’s second book (1975). Their involvement was supposed to be confined to only saving the "just".<br>
<br>
Rael goes on to define who these 144,000 shall be: (1) those people already re-created on [the Elohim’s] planet, who number 8,400 (p. 161), (2) those people who will have led a life dedicated to the blossoming of Humanity without ever hearing of the messages, and (3) also those people who will recognize Rael as [the Elohim’s] messenger after having read the messages and getting baptized or “<i>sealed in their foreheads</i>”. This number will supposedly be sufficient to start a new generation on Earth.<br>
<br>
According to the <b><i><u><a href="https://elohimembassy.org/faq/" target="_blank">latest Raelian publication</a></u></i></b>, there are already more than 100,000 Raelians worldwide. Despite Raelism’s doomsday bent on the future, Rael has predicted that the Elohim would return openly at his ET Embassy by <b><i><u><a href="http://www.raelpress.org/comment.php?comment.news.437" target="_blank">2035</a></u></i></b> and peace and prosperity shall prevail on Earth henceforth.<br>
<br>
I wonder how many people there are who will have never heard of Rael and also be entitled to be saved by the Elohim “soon”. What will happen if Humanity’s self-destruction is imminent and there are <b><i><u><a href="https://raelian-truth.blogspot.com/2012/01/144000-arrival-vs-end-of-world.html" target="_blank">more than 144,000 Raelians</a></u></i></b>? LOL<br>
<br>
Since 1975 when the 99% figure was "revealed", it has been 42 years without any global nuclear conflicts. If and only if this year, WWIII breaks loose, the figure would go down to just a 2.2%-successful prediction (1 year in 42 years).<br>
<br>
If Raelians realize a 99.5% prediction spells an imminent reality, how then do they still hope for an ET Embassy to bring about world peace? Or, are they being realistic in their own worldview and realize the ET Embassy is a facade and when shit hits the fan in their lifetime, they will all be "saved" (but, much less than 144,000 "special" followers of Rael)?<br>
<br>
Rael does call for his followers to "drop everything" and join him in proximity when the time comes to be saved from the nuclear cataclysm that is bound to take place in Raelian-lore. (p. 218)<br>

Belief in telepathy is one of the main tenets of Raelism. It is believed that it was through telepathy that extraterrestrials, known to the Raelians as the Elohim, made Rael buy a copy of the Bible, just days before being made to go to the place where he would meet one of them face-to-face over six days for an hour each time at the end of 1973 (<i>Intelligent Design</i>, p. 7).<br />
<br />
The ET, alleged to be Yahweh of the Bible, explained to Rael how all humans have an inherent ability to communicate telepathically: the brain being a transmitter of accurate waves and thoughts with our bodily hair acting as its antenna, citing the story of Samson who had lost his ability to communicate with Yahweh once his hair was cut. Therefore, the point about not shaving off any hair is very important to Raelians. (pp. 35-36). This explains why Raelians tend to fall for such pseudoscience and <u><a href="https://raelian-truth.blogspot.com/2013/12/raelism-long-hair-telepathy.html" target="_blank"><i>grow out their hair</i></a></u>.<br />
<br />
Rael also claims how Yahweh used telepathy to make him give his son a specific name (p. 94). At the end of Rael's alleged meeting, Yahweh shares something instructive:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
"<i>You know the truth, and <b>we will </b><u style="font-weight: bold;">stay in contact</u><b> with you by telepathy to give you confidence and </b><u style="font-weight: bold;">additional information</u> if we think necessary.</i>" (p. 101)</blockquote>
About two years later, in 1975, Rael claims that he was taken to the Planet of Eternal Life, that is supposedly about 1-light year away on board one of their spacecrafts. While on their planet, Yahweh allegedly used a machine to awaken certain faculties that lay dormant in Rael's brain so as to be able to exploit its full potential (p. 171).<br />
<br />
Yahweh then advises people to meditate to "<i>open one's mind</i>" and try and communicate with the Elohim while trying to be "<i>in harmony with the infinite</i>". Yahweh then mentions mediums:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
"<i><b>Mediums are useful, so </b><u><b>seek them out</b></u><b>. But balance them because their gifts as mediums - which are only </b><u><b>gifts of telepathy</b></u> - unbalance them, and they begin to believe in magic, the supernatural, and other incredibly stupid things, including an ethereal body, which is a new way of trying to believe in the soul which does not exist. In fact, what they are actually doing is tuning into people who lived several centuries ago, and whom we have recreated on this paradisiacal planet.</i>" (p. 172)</blockquote>
Rael's second book contains directives known as the "<i>Keys</i>" that would help people open their minds. In the chapter titled "<i>The Human Brain</i>", Rael goes back into explaining telepathy and the usefulness of meditation:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
"<i>We still have a long way to go in fully understanding the potential of the human brain. <b>The <u>sixth sense</u>, direct perception, <u>should be developed in young children</u></b>. This is what we call telepathy. Telepathy enables us to communicate directly with our creators, the Elohim.</i></blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<i> Numerous mediums have come to me asking what they should do, because they had received messages from what they call “the beyond”, asking them to get in touch with me in order to help me, and for me to bring them “the light”. <b><u>Mediums</u> are very important people because they <u>have an above average gift of telepathy</u>, and their minds are already on the path to an awakened state. They should try to <u>practice meditation</u> in order to fully master their potential. I am eagerly waiting for all those mediums who have received such messages to get in touch with me, so that we may <u>organize regular meetings</u>. The <u>true mediums</u> who seek to be informed <u>will all receive instructions</u>.</b> The power of one brain is great, but the power of several brains is infinite. Let those who have ears, hear."</i> (p. 207)</blockquote>
In the chapter titled "<i>The Reward</i>", Rael writes:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
"<i>If you recognize the Elohim as your creators, and if you love them and wish to welcome them, if you try to do good to other people by making as much use as you can of all your potential, <b>if you think of your creators regularly, trying through <u>telepathy</u> to make them understand that you love them</b>, if you help the Guide of Guides to accomplish his mission, you will without a doubt be entitled to scientific reincarnation on the planet of the eternals.</i>" (p. 216)</blockquote>
Yet, given all of the above, Rael has quite recently excommunicated a couple of high-profile Raelians because they came forward and claimed to be receiving instructions directly from the Elohim through telepathy and other modes of communication. Rael brushed these individuals off saying they were suffering from mental illness. Rael communicated his official stance on this matter in a Raelian newsletter, which contradicts what he wrote originally in his books:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<i><b><u>Regarding the allusion of mediums in the Messages</u> </b></i></blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<i><b>Mediums, as explained in the Messages, have to receive a special training when they are little children. <u>After childhood they cannot develop it</u></b>. And even with this training they can only receive telepathic feelings: never clear Messages. <b><u>We do not even have, right now, the knowledge about this training</u></b>. For clear Messages there is a need for a surgery which was performed on me when I went to the Eternal life Planet. <b>The call for <u>regular meetings</u> of sensitive people called "medium" and who can receive feelings and never clear messages <u>will be organized when the Elohim will ask for it</u> and not to create a new leadership but for a very special purpose. <u>And that may happen or not</u>. The Elohim decide and we follow.</b> The only way to know when they decide is through the Prophet and not through people suddenly hearing voices... </i></blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<i>If I received the Messages in 1973 by " hearing voices" I would never have believed it, nor created any organization but would have instead ran to see a psychiatrist. For the simple reason that I am a rational person. I did accept the Messages and the mission because they were given to me in a physical contact and not at a "sunrise" or at any "solstice" which means nothing. </i></blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<i>Our mission is to fight traditional mysticism and even more neo-mysticism which attracts many people due to the disappearing of main religions. Peace and love.</i> (<i>Contact 379</i>, p. 7)</blockquote>
Notice how Rael is conflating mediums who allegedly already possess telepathic abilities with normal people who need to be trained from a young age. Rael seems to be oblivious of himself instructing Raelians to meditate in order to develop their “<i>sixth sense</i>”. Rael also denies Yahweh’s prior directive to immediately organize regular meetings with mediums who will have received instructions, and not just feelings, from the Elohim. Rael also seems to forget his claim that the Elohim kept contact with him telepathically prior to his “<i>surgery</i>” that supposedly transformed him into a full blown telepath. Does this mean Rael was just vaguely in contact with them between 1973 and 1975? Does this also mean Rael can now, as did the Elohim to himself, mind-control other people?<br />
<br />
To date, Rael has yet to seek out and acknowledge "true mediums" as Raelians. Instead, he does not hesitate to expel anyone who dares to contest his original writings, known as the <i>Messages</i>, or his dictatorial authority as the messenger of the Elohim in an attempt to purge his cult of “<i>weak and psychologically unbalanced people, who take their dreams or mental disease induced hallucinations, for reality</i>” (<i>Contact 379</i>, p. 7).<br />
<br />
Rael knows these people are delusional because he himself must have made everything up.<br />

Back in 2010 in a <a href="http://www.raelpress.org/comment.php?comment.news.183" target="_blank"><b>press release</b></a>, Rael referred to world-renowned theoretical physicist, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stephen_Hawking" target="_blank"><b>Stephen Hawking</b></a> as not only handicapped physically, but mentally as well, due to the ‘degenerative disease’ of ‘evolutionism’ or ‘Darwinism’. He elaborates on what he calls a “magical, irrational concept”:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<i>His fears about murderous, invading aliens are based on the theory of evolution – the myth of evolution, to be more precise. He’s afraid humans are inferior to aliens who might invade. That’s logical, but only if you accept the myth of evolution.<br /><br />Hitler’s views about superior Aryans; slavery and apartheid; and Hawking’s delirium of aliens wiping out humanity all fit perfectly with the evolution myth.</i></blockquote>
Let us be reminded that Rael claims that Extraterrestrials created all life on Earth and evidence of this feat is recorded in various holy scriptures, including the Bible, and that he is the last of their prophets - messengers who have been chosen to represent our cosmic creators.<br />
<br />
Rael’s criticisms of Hawking’s views are nothing short of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doublespeak" target="_blank"><b>Orwellian Doublespeak</b></a> considering that Raelian doctrine itself provides supporting evidence contradicting Rael.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><i><b>Supremacy</b></i></span></div>
<div>
First, Rael harps on about how advanced our alleged creators are, establishing a significant superiority to us on all levels. In fact, it is stated that these extraterrestrials are some <a href="https://raelian-truth.blogspot.com/2012/01/oldest-civilization-in-universe-only.html" target="_blank"><b>25,000 years more advanced than our earthly civilization</b></a> (<i>Intelligent Design</i>, p. 107), and that they have not come across any other cosmic civilisation as advanced as they are.<br />
<br />
In terms of superior races among humans, Rael claims in his book that these extraterrestrials created seven different races on Earth and amongst them, the "Jewish race" had been selected in a contest as the most successful type of humanoid on Earth due to their intelligence and genius and that this is why they are often considered as the “chosen people” (p. 18).</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><i><b>Alien Invasion</b></i></span></div>
<div>
As Rael’s extraterrestrials are revealed to be the Elohim as described in the Bible, (as well as the deities of other religions), the destructive acts attributed to these gods are in fact the acts of the extraterrestrials. In Rael's first book, the Great Flood of the Bible is reinterpreted as being a cataclysmic event caused by the Elohim when they attempted to destroy all life on Earth using advanced nuclear weapons, except for Noah and his family who were saved by a small group of rebellious Elohim aboard a spacecraft along with the DNA of every species we find on our planet today, all because the intelligent humans they have created, albeit primitive technologically, were deemed a threat to them (p. 20). Therefore, even Raelian doctrine provides evidence of aliens making an attempt to destroy humanity. So much for Rael’s argument of aliens not capable of wiping out humanity.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Slavery</i></b></span><br />
This also means that everything attributed to God can be attributed to Rael’s Elohim, which includes slavery as attested in the Bible, Qur'an or the Book of Mormon - religious texts recognized in Raelism.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><i><b>Apartheid</b></i></span><br />
As for apartheid, Rael writes how the Elohim allowed only a select few priestly figures to approach them, but only after wearing <a href="https://raelian-truth.blogspot.com/2017/12/holy-or-sterile.html" target="_blank"><b>aseptic clothing</b></a> (pp. 50-51), whilst making a point to shun humans who were sick or had any form of physical deformity or disability (p. 31), something quite reminiscent of the Nazi era in the 20th century.<br />
<br />
Furthermore, Rael relates how the Elohim practice apartheid within their own civilization. He claims how a group of <a href="https://raelian-truth.blogspot.com/2012/01/raelian-eternal-problem.html" target="_blank"><b>700 Elohim</b></a> live on "the Planet of the Eternals" completely separate from the 7 billion mortal Elohim, who live on another planet altogether, enjoying a lifespan of about 750 years (p. 110).</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Cosmic Laws Were Meant to be Broken</i></b></span><br />
Rael continues with his doublespeak in the same press release:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<i>With intelligent design, you automatically have intelligent organization of the universe as well, organization based on peace and love, not on monsters ready to invade and destroy humanity.<br /> <br />Intelligent designers wouldn’t allow anyone to destroy their creation. What’s more, with cosmic laws based on intelligent design, violent species wind up self-destructing before they can spread their violence to other planets.</i></blockquote>
This "cosmic law" (p. 151) is nothing but a Raelian <a href="https://dictionary.law.com/Default.aspx?selected=2426" target="_blank"><b>a priori assumption</b></a> that contradicts its very own message. <br />
<br />
According to Rael, the Elohim were able to escape their planetary system and therefore must be peaceful. However, as stated above, the Elohim not only intended to destroy their own creation completely, but acted on this - thousands of years after having met the criteria of escaping self-destruction and entering a peaceful interstellar level of civilization. Yet their violent tendencies didn't cease after that atrocious event. Rael also reinterprets Biblical events such as Sodom and Gomorrah (p. 24) as nuclear attacks on the two cities by the Elohim, or the events of the “Trumpets of Jericho” as the Elohim using advanced ultrasonic weapons and "full scale bombings" (p. 33). More examples of the Elohim's violent behavior can be found <a href="https://raelian-truth.blogspot.com/2012/01/violence-and-raelism.html" target="_blank"><b>here</b></a>.<br />
<br />
Just to put things into perspective, all this purportedly happened about 15,000 years after these extraterrestrials had the capability to escape their own planetary system, supposedly passing through a self-destruction filter that prevents violent civilizations from spreading across space. <br />
<br />
In his book, Rael claims that it takes 666 generations, or approximately 13,360 years (p. 304), to reach such a turning point in a civilization’s history <span style="font-size: xx-small;">[1]</span>. According to Rael, the generation of 1945 was exactly that turning point in human history he calls the start of the Age of Apocalypse (p. 206). It’s rather damning when a civilization claims to be so advanced, yet demonstrates its own failure to have overcome its most basic, violent tendencies - directly contradicting the supposed cosmic law, even after having had more time than the entirety of human history. And all this by their own account.<br />
<br />
Could they be suggesting that they are but one exception to the rule? It’s highly unlikely as Rael also claims that the Elohim created another two humanoid species on other planets, and that one may soon make contact with us (p. 357). Once again, the assumption being that this other creation has managed to escape their own planetary system, making them more advanced than us and guaranteed to be peaceful.<br />
<br />
However, earlier in Rael's writings, he states:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<i>Out of the three worlds where life has been created, the one which makes the most progress will receive the inheritance [of the Elohim's advanced scientific knowledge]. The ones which have not progressed will be dominated by the other and eliminated. This is also true on Earth between peoples. (p. 75).</i></blockquote>
Does this not only support Hawking’s position and contradict Rael’s assurances that extraterrestrials will never invade us, but also nullify his anti-scientific stance against biological evolution where he claims that only violent species who wish to conquer other worlds are produced?<br />
<br />
The vitriol against Hawking continued in 2016 in yet another <a href="http://www.raelpress.org/comment.php?comment.news.452" target="_blank"><b>press release</b></a>, this time in response to comparisons made between extraterrestrials and European colonizers, if they were to come to Earth.<br />
<br />
Ironically, in spite of all these inadequacies, Rael still decided to nominate Hawking as an <a href="http://raelianews.org/honorary-guides" target="_blank"><b>Honorary Raelian Guide</b></a> for his decision to withdraw from the Israeli President's Conference in protest against the nation's occupation of Palestine territories in 2013. Oddly enough, his honorary title hasn't been revoked, in stark contrast to Rael's habitual practice of <a href="http://raeliantruthnetwork.org/chabot-response-to-cpt-cancellation/" target="_blank"><b>excommunication</b></a> of high ranking Raelian Guides who step out of line, speak out or question him - thus displeasing him.<br />

<span style="font-size: xx-small;">[1] According to Rael, the Elohim "decided to start their work on Earth" some 22,000 years ago (p. 81). He also claims a "day" in the Biblical creation story is about 2,000 years (p. 12), meaning it took the Elohim 12,000 years to create humans on the "sixth day". But, if the Elohim are 25,000 years in advance of us and </span><span style="font-size: xx-small;">if it takes about 13,320 years for a civilization to escape their planetary system, the Elohim civilization should be about 38,320 years old. This also means, the Elohim had 15,000 years to overcome their aggressive tendencies since leaving their planetary system and venture out into space before committing atrocities against us.</span></div>

クロード・ボリロン(Claude Vorilhon)のオリジナルのバージョンはフランス語で書かれていました。彼にメッセージをくれた宇宙人はフランス語で話しました。 <br />
<br />
ですから、フランス語のバージョンを注意深く見ることは非常に重要です。 <br />
<br />
他のすべてのバージョン、英語、イタリア語、日本語などは、フランス語のメッセージの差異を完全に100%反映していません。 <br />
<br />
クロード・ボリロンの本は、自分自身に知らせるだけでなく、精神的にも実存的な旅にも深く関わってくれる人々に影響を与えてきました。 <br />
<br />
私の場合、「真実を告げる書」を読むとすぐ疑問を感じました。 <br />
<br />
51ページの宇宙人によって与えられた例は、その本を信じる可能性を排除しました。 <br />
<br />
私は公平のために読書を続け、二番目に出版された本を読んで自分自身の義務を超えました。 <br />
<br />
私の懐疑主義は最終的に限界に達し、私は突然の結論に達しました:クロード・ボリロンはすべてを発明しました。 <br />
<br />
私は51ページに小さな宝を発見しました。これはかなり明らかになり、ボリロンの悪い意図の完全な例です。 <br />
<br />
私が言及しているこの講義は、フランス語を話す読者にとって、フランス語に特有の微妙なものであるため、この本のフランス語版読者にはっきりと理解できるものです:それはヘブライ語ではもちろん、英語、日本語、その他の言語では見つからないフランス語の同音異義語です(発音は同じだが、互いに区別される語)! <br />
<br />
それは、ラエルのエロヒムが彼らの主張の証拠を提供するときはいつも、主にヘブライ語を引用している聖書の例を引用しているからです。 <br />
<br />
それで、この例では、51ページで言及したように、宇宙人はクロードに、彼らによって作られた人間は微妙な概念を理解することができない原始的な存在であることを明らかにしました。 <br />
<br />
彼らの原始性は、彼らに超自然的に見える最も洗練されていない出来事に、神聖で魔法的な性格を与えるよう促します。 エロハは、クロードに聖書に見られる変形の例を挙げます。。。<br />
<div>
<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
『エゼキエルが訪れた創造者たちの地球上の住居、すなわち「神殿」で彼らに奉仕していた祭司たちは、お務つとめの際には無菌の衣服を身につけていました。そして、創造者たちが危険な病原菌に汚染されないように、衣服は「神殿」に置いておかねばなりませんでした。 </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
祭司たちが務めを行う衣服を、その所に置かなければならない。これは聖だからである。「エゼキエル書」42章14節 </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
「この衣服は無菌だから」と書くべきところですが、当時の何でも神秘化する未開な人たちには、創造者たちが説明したり見せたりしても、その内容が理解できなかったのです。』(Intelligent Design・地球人は科学的に創造された・創造者からのメッセージ・ページ 50-51)</blockquote>
<div>
<br /></div>
したがって、メッセージのフランス語版によると、エロヒムは、衣類がフランス語で「<b>細菌からの解放</b>」を意味する「<b>SAINS</b>」であることを意味しました。 しかし、原始的な人々は、衣服はフランス語で "<b>祝福</b>" または "<b>聖</b>" を意味する「<b>SAINTS</b>」であると書いています。 彼は明らかに、エラーは「<b>SAIN</b>」の代わりに「<b>SAINT</b>」という言葉の誤用であると述べています。 <br />
<br />
それは良い例のように思え、かなり効果的です。 <br />
<br />
しかし、これらの「原始的な人々」が話さなかったフランス語の使用に完全に基づいているため、この推論には完全な欠陥があります。 <br />
<br />
実際、古フランス語の起源は842年にストラスブールの誓いにさかのぼります。 <br />
<br />
中世フランスは15世紀に現代フランス語が17世紀に現れました。それで、たとえ言語が存在しなくても、私たちの原始的な祖先は2つのフランス語同音異義語を混同することが可能でしたか? <br />
<br />
彼らがヘブライ語、古代ギリシア語、ラテン語で間違いを犯した可能性はもっと高いですか? <br />
<br />
そのような言語でもこのような間違いが起きる可能性はありますか? この例では、「<b>書くべきところですが</b>」と指定されています。 <br />
<br />
フランス語が発明されていないときに、どのようにしてフランス語で書くことができましたか? <br />
<br />
フランス語の繊細さを使って、原始的な人々が彼らには理解できないものすべてを神聖化していることを実証するためには、粗末な、厄介な、ばかげたアプローチではないですか? <br />
<br />
私の記憶が正しければ、ラエリアン・ガイドのレオン・ムレる(Leon Mellul)はこの悪い例を説明するテキストを書いていました。おそらく著者は同じ考えをしており、この参考文献は同じ本の英語版からは除外されていると思われます。彼の説明は完全に理解できず、読者の知性を引き出すよう求められました。前述の文章を守るための彼のテキストは確信できませんでした。 <br />
<br />
ラエリアン・ムーブメントの多くの人々はこのナンセンスを認識することができます。 <br />
<br />
ビジリット・ボアッセラ(Brigitte Boisselier)、マルセル・テルッセ(Marcel Terrusse)、マルク・リバード(Marc Rivard)のような人々は、この非論理的な誤りを認識しなければなりません。。。彼らが彼らの感情を背後に置くことができれば。<br />

According to the Raelian mythos, extraterrestrials (ETs) “<i>that are capable of escaping their planetary system are always peaceful.</i>” (Intelligent Design, p. 151).<br />
<br />
The ETs in question here, are the Elohim of the Bible, that Rael interprets as translating to “those who came from the skies” (p. 11); a technologically advanced race of ETs who created all life on Earth - including human beings who were made “in their own image” (p. 19). These ETs contacted Rael and gave him the mission to build an embassy on Earth so that they can peacefully “return” and give humanity their advanced scientific knowledge. All religions were supposedly created by them for primitive people so that once humanity developed sufficiently, they would finally understand they were if fact mistaken as supernatural gods.<br />
<br />
<b><i><span style="font-size: large;">Peaceful ETs</span></i></b><br />
That ETs are always peaceful is used as evidence to support Rael's claim that there have never been any alien abductions on Earth and there never will be. In the same time when Real vehemently declares any UFO reports as being those of the Elohim, he explains away abduction reports as being clandestine efforts by US secret services to create fear among people that ETs are dangerous in a bid to justify continuing with their military industrial complex in the absence of a terrestrial enemy such as the former USSR. As for the people who claim to have been abducted, coined as “abductees”, Rael explains how they are psychologically imbalanced people who are also prone to using drugs and alcohol: <br />

<br />
<b><i><span style="font-size: large;">History of the Alien Abduction Phenomenon</span></i></b><br />
Belief in aliens has increased steadily since the birth of modern alien research in the 40s and 50s, following sensational news such as the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roswell_UFO_incident" target="_blank">Roswell UFO incident</a>. Surveys in Western cultures estimated belief in aliens to be as <a href="https://yougov.co.uk/news/2015/09/24/you-are-not-alone-most-people-believe-aliens-exist/" target="_blank">high as 50% in 2015</a>. And despite the fact that it is considered rare, a significant number of people also believe they have experienced alien abduction.<br />
<br />
Present day awareness of alien abduction dates to the 1961 case of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barney_and_Betty_Hill" target="_blank">Betty and Barney Hill</a>, who witnessed odd lights and experienced “missing time” and “lost memories” while driving. The reported consequences of abduction are often loss of memory, missing time, and problems such as sickness, sleepwalking, nightmares and psychological trauma.<br />
<br />
Although the accuracy of the numbers is questioned, a <a href="http://www.experiencer.org/mental-health-professionals-and-the-roper-poll/" target="_blank">poll by the Roper Center for Public Opinion Research</a> conducted 30 years after this account said that around 3.7 million Americans believed that they too had experienced alien abduction. However, many psychologists are less convinced, and think they can provide more down-to-earth, scientific explanations. <br />
<br />
<b><i><span style="font-size: large;">Scientific Explanations</span></i></b><br />
While some hoaxes that were perpetrated mainly for financial gain or social advantage may be true in a few cases (such as with UFO “contactees” such as <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Adamski#Investigations_and_criticism" target="_blank">George Adamski</a> and <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Billy_Meier#Photographs,_films" target="_blank">Billy Meier</a> and cult leaders like Rael), there is no reason to assume that the majority of “abductees” were intentionally fraudulent in their claims. In fact, psychologists have come up with a number of plausible, scientific explanations for people’s supposed alien encounters. <br />
<br />
Studies suggest that neuropsychological theories, particularly sleep paralysis and temporal lobe sensitivity, <a href="https://braindecoder.com/post/neuroscience-of-sleep-paralysis-1113306867" target="_blank">also could explain claims of alien abduction</a>.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.sleepeducation.org/news/2009/07/29/sleep-paralysis-the-devil-the-ghost-the-old-hag" target="_blank">Sleep paralysis</a> is a feeling of being conscious but unable to move, often with a feeling of fear or dread, and the sense of another presence – perhaps evil or malevolent, a feeling of pressure on the chest and difficulty breathing, and of being held or restricted to a lying position, all of which occurs when a person passes between stages of wakefulness and sleep. It is noteworthy that Raelian Bishop Guide, Dr. Marcus Wenner, once mentioned this as an explanation for alien abductions in a Raelian publication.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.healthline.com/human-body-maps/temporal-lobe" target="_blank">Temporal lobe sensitivity</a> is a theory that suggests the temporal lobes of some people’s brains are more vulnerable to influence from low-level magnetic frequencies. <a href="http://persingerpublications.com/" target="_blank">Michael Persinger</a>, a neuroscientist at Laurentian University in Canada, is among those who believes that increased <a href="https://michaelshermer.com/1999/09/out-of-body-experiment/" target="_blank">temporal lobe activity can explain paranormal experiences</a> such as alien abduction. His theory is that magnetic fields stimulate the temporal lobes, resulting in hallucinatory experiences similar to those reported by alien abductees.<br />
<br />
Another explanation of experiencing alien abductions depends on the personality characteristic known as the <a href="http://skepdic.com/fantasyprone.html" target="_blank">proclivity for fantasy</a>. There are also other psychological explanations, such as <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dissociation_(psychology)">dissociation</a> – where an individual’s mental processes detach from each other and from reality, often in response to extreme or stressful life events. A tendency towards being fantasy-prone and dissociation has been linked in <a href="http://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1207/s15327965pli0702_9" target="_blank">studies</a> to <a href="http://www.ufoevidence.org/documents/doc15.htm" target="_blank">childhood trauma and hypnotic suggestibility</a>.<br />
<br />
Psychologists argue that regression hypnosis, such as that popularized in the 70s by UFO enthusiast <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Budd_Hopkins" target="_blank">Budd Hopkins</a> who wasn't formally trained as a psychotherapist, <a href="http://www.lifeandpsychology.com/2011/06/alien-abduction-or-false-memory.html" target="_blank">encourages the creation and recall of detailed fantasies</a>. For example, it was under regressive hypnosis that Betty and Barney Hill's “missing memories” were “recovered. It’s for these reasons that it’s believed alien abduction experiences may arise from a combination of personality characteristics and susceptibility to false memories.<br />
<br />
<b><i><span style="font-size: large;">Raelian Abductions</span></i></b><br />
Interestingly, from these regressive hypnosis sessions, Hopkins discovered many “abductees” were subjected to a “<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alien_abduction#Child_presentation" target="_blank">child presentation</a>” in which the claimants were shown a child. Often, the children appear to be neither human, nor the same species as the abductors. Instead, the child will almost always share characteristics of both species. These children are labeled by experiencers as hybrids between humans and their abductors.<br />
<br />
But, this is uncannily similar to what we find in Rael's writings, except that the ETs were humanoid but about 1.2 meters tall with a slightly greenish tinge. (p. 5)<br />
<br />
In Rael’s first book (1974), while he was still known by his birth name: Claude Vorilhon, claimed that this act of creation of life on Earth - especially, humans in their likeness - was merely an “experiment” (pp. 10, 17, 39). Further on, Rael relates a story of how some of those Elohim scientists who came to Earth then “chose” and “took” the most beautiful daughters of humanity and had children with them.<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
“And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them, that the sons of Elohim saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose.” <i>Genesis 6: 1-2</i></blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
“The creators living in exile took the most beautiful daughters of humanity and made them their wives.” (Intelligent Design, p. 19)</blockquote>
Rael then writes:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
“When the sons of Elohim came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown.” <i>Genesis 6: 4.</i></blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
“There you have proof that the creators could have intercourse with the daughters of humanity whom they had created in their own image, and in so doing produced exceptional children. These actions seemed very dangerous to people on the distant planet. The scientific progress on Earth was fantastic, and they decided to destroy what had been created.” (p.19)</blockquote>
The Elohim government back in their own planet decided to destroy all life on Earth by showering the planet with nuclear bombs that supposedly resulted in the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genesis_flood_narrative" target="_blank">Biblical Flood</a>. Yet, after such a blatant act of aggression, the Elohim decided to allow their human progeny saved by Noah to rule over Earth. One example Rael gives is that of the birth of Samson. The Elohim chose an infertile woman, cured her infertility, and then impregnated her without her husband’s knowledge:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
“And the angel of Elohim came again unto the woman as she sat in the field: but Manoah her husband was not with her.” <i>Judges 13: 9.</i></blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
“It is easy to imagine what happened during her husband’s absence... It was an easy task for the scientists to cure her sterility. In this way she was made aware that she was going to give birth to an exceptional individual, and that she should take the utmost care of her baby. It was wonderful for the creators to mate with a daughter of humanity. This enabled them to have sons ruling directly on Earth, where the atmosphere was not suitable for themselves.” (p. 35)</blockquote>
This would mean, they had to take her aboard one of their spaceships to perform the procedure. The same was supposedly done to Jesus’ mother, Mary:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
“The creators therefore decided to arrange for a child to be born of a woman of the Earth and one of their own people. The child in question would thereby inherit certain telepathic faculties, which humans lack:</blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
She was found with child of the Holy Ghost.” <i>Matthew 1: 18.</i></blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Mary was the woman chosen, and obviously her fiancé found these tidings hard to accept, but:<br />
<br />
“Behold, the angel of Yahweh appeared unto him.” <i>Matthew 1:20.</i> (p. 65)</blockquote>
These two accounts are reminiscent of modern alien abduction stories where many women testify of being abducted and then inseminated to produce hybrids. Rael claims to be one such hybrid: the product of a union between an ET called Yahweh (the President of the Eternal Council of the Elohim) and his human mother. Rael relates the following conversation he supposedly had with Yahweh on the Planet of Eternal Life in this 2nd book (1975):<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
“The person whom you looked upon as your father was not your real father. After the explosion at Hiroshima, we decided that the time had come for us to send a new messenger on Earth. He would be the last prophet, but the first one to address Mankind asking them to understand and not to believe. We then selected a woman, as we had done in the time of Jesus. This woman was taken aboard one of our ships and inseminated as we had done with the mother of Jesus. Then she was freed after we had totally erased from her memory all traces of what had happened. ...[ ]... Your real father is also the father of Jesus, and that makes you brothers. You are presently looking at your father. Your foster-father was like Joseph, he was to take care of you and your mother until such time as you could provide for yourself.” (p. 290)</blockquote>
As far as I'm aware, Rael's mother Marie-Colette Vorilhon, has never gone through such regressive hypnosis to retrieve her “erased memory”, nor was his “human” father, Marcel Heimendinger, ever contacted by the Elohim to reveal the “true” nature of Rael's extraordinary birth (as they supposedly did with Joseph). Notwithstanding the story about the Elohim, Rael grew up as an illegitimate child whose father was already married to another woman. In a TV interview with Rael's mother and aunt, they discount Rael's story as harmless fantasy that may have some beneficial outcomes. Real's mother humors the interviewer using confirmation bias and synchronicity to say her name was similar to the mother of Jesus, Mary and that her lover was like a carpenter just like Joseph, since he ran a saw mill [1]:<br />

<br />
<b><i><span style="font-size: large;">UFO-focused Organization</span></i></b><br />
When Rael started out in early 1974 with MADECH (French acronym for “movement for welcoming the Elohim”), most of his members were UFO enthusiasts. It was a very hot topic at the time. But, wishing to gain some control as the “messenger of the Elohim”, Rael had disbanded MADECH and came up with his 2nd book in late 1975 and transformed his organization as the <a href="https://raelian-truth.blogspot.com/2014/02/from-madech-to-raelian-movement.html" target="_blank">International Raelian Movement (IRM)</a>. His cult is still centered around the UFO and ET phenomena. And the official Raelian website used to promote the IRM as “the largest UFO-related organization in the world”. Recently <a href="https://raelianleaks.org/raelian-membership-sep-2017-email-report-from-leon-mellul/" target="_blank">leaked internal documents</a> suggest Rael’s followers consists only of about 18,000 and IRM members being less than 3,000 worldwide.<br />
<br />
Whilst relying on the popularity of the UFO phenomenon to lend credibility to his claims, Rael always dismisses other contactees' and abductees' claims of extraterrestrial encounters as the result of psychological disorders or the use of drugs, which lends some credence to Rael in light of the probable causes explained at the beginning of this article, or that their encounters were genuinely an encounter with the Elohim, but were misinterpreted or mystified due to their prior beliefs. <br />
<br />
Furthermore, <a href="https://raelian-truth.blogspot.com/2012/03/rival-prophets-of-rael.html" target="_blank">many rivals</a> have challenged Rael's prophethood, with claims of having some form of contact with the Elohim, including people from the ranks of the Raelian Movement itself. For these particular claimants, Rael publicly excommunicates them, not hesitating to label them as mentally ill. Most recently, he added his former long time partner, Sophie de Niverville to this list after she claimed to have received communications from them, going as far as publicly disclosing her medical history and instructing his followers to avoid contacting her, a common practice in similar groups.<br />
<br />
Whenever a UFO sighting is benign, Rael jumps at the opportunity to claim that it was in fact his Elohim that were behind the event. Two of the most recent UFO sightings that garnered a great deal of media attention and internet hype – the Jerusalem Temple sighting and the UFO wave over China – were featured prominently on the Raelian website dedicated to promoting the building of an embassy for extraterrestrials.<br />
<br />
Both have been thoroughly <a href="https://raelian-truth.blogspot.com/2012/01/raelian-embassy-zero-progress.html" target="_blank">debunked</a>.<br />
<br />
<i><b><span style="font-size: large;">Cognitive Dissonance and Circular Reasoning</span></b></i><br />
Yet despite <a href="https://raelian-truth.blogspot.com/2012/01/violence-and-raelism.html" target="_blank">violent events</a> such as the Biblical Flood, the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah and the Trumpets of Jericho - acts perpetrated by the Elohim as documented by Rael in his own books, he still vehemently denies any possible aggression by space aliens as well as the “abduction” phenomenon, even though by definition, his mother's supposed impregnation falls into this category.<br />
<br />
This is yet another demonstration of how <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cognitive_dissonance" target="_blank">cognitive dissonance</a> is embedded within Raelism. On the one hand, all accounts of abductions are completely rejected – the universal law that prevents aggressive beings from leaving their solar system ensures that all extraterrestrial visitors are benign. Any claims contrary to this position are the result of psychological misinterpretations or deliberate lies. Yet, on the other hand, when some specific people in the Raelian narrative were taken and had procedures such as insemination performed upon them (without their consent), these are somehow not “alien abductions”, nor are they recognized as a form of violence or aggression.<br />
<br />
While abductees believe in the ET abduction phenomenon, just like UFO enthusiasts believe in ET visitations, Rael obliquely discounts the former while promotes the latter.<br />
<br />
One can conclude that Rael is a deliberate hoaxer who knows very well he hasn't met any space aliens himself and therefore alien abductions can also not ever happen. He uses the fallacy of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circular_reasoning" target="_blank">circular reasoning</a> to make it all sensible in his followers’ minds:<br />
<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
(1) ETs, i.e. Elohim are peaceful<br />
(2) therefore, no violence and abductions can be expected from them<br />
(3) but, his story records Biblical violence and abductions, especially of his mother<br />
(4) but, these were all done for peaceful ends that will allow the Elohim to return<br />
(5) therefore, Rael is the Messenger of peace who will welcome back the loving Elohim</blockquote>

<br />
Of course, a <i><u><a href="http://confluence.ias.ac.in/joint-statement-by-the-three-science-academies-of-india/" target="_blank">joint statement</a></u></i> by three science academies of India condemned Singh's statements as being "<i>a retrograde step to remove the teaching of the theory of evolution from school and college curricula or to dilute this by offering non-scientific explanations or myths.</i>"<br />

Rael usually makes his public statements under the the banner "COMMENT:"; however I was unable to find any.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
According to Raelism, biological evolution is a myth. Under the title "<i><b>Evolution: A Myth</b></i>", Rael writes about his exchanges with Yahweh, his supposed ET father:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
"<i>you must dispel from your minds all uncertainty about evolution. Your scientists who have elaborated theories of evolution are not completely wrong in saying that humanity is descended from the monkey, and the monkey from the fish, and so on. In reality, the first living organism created on Earth was unicellular, which then gave rise to more complex life forms.<br /> <br />But this did not happen by chance! When we came to Earth to create life, we started by making very simple creations and then improved our techniques of environmental adaptation. This enabled us to make in turn fish, amphibians, mammals, birds, primates and finally man himself, who is just an improved model of the monkey to which we added what makes us essentially human.<br /> <br />In this way, we made human beings in our image, as it is written in the Bible in Genesis. You could have realized for yourselves that there is little chance of a series of accidents producing such a large variety of life forms - the colors of birds and their elaborate mating rituals, or the shape of certain antelope horns.<br /> <br />What natural need could lead antelopes or wild goats to develop curled horns? Or birds to have blue or red feathers? And what about exotic fish?<br /> <br />All that is the work of our artists.</i>" (Intelligent Design, p. 92)</blockquote>
<div>
To explain away how natural selection and genetic mutations drive the evolutionary process, Yahweh adds:</div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
"<i>Evolution of the various forms of life on Earth is really the evolution of techniques of creation and the increased sophistication of the creators’ work. This eventually led them to create people similar to themselves. You can find the skulls of prehistoric men who were the first human prototypes.<br /> <br />These were replaced each time by others more evolved. This continued right up to your present form, which is the <b>exact replica</b> </i>[1] <i>of your creators who were afraid to create anything highly superior to themselves, although some were tempted to do so</i>." (p. 93)</blockquote>

Raelism's stance on biological evolution falls clearly under <i><u><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Denialism#Evolution" target="_blank">scientific denialism</a></u></i> akin to <i><u><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Creationism" target="_blank">Christian Creationism</a></u></i>. However, faced with the reality of scientific evidence backing the Theory of Evolution, even the Catholic Church has eventually adopted the idea of <i><u><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theistic_evolution" target="_blank">Theistic Evolution</a></u></i> that claims that God has intentionally created mechanisms for his creation to evolve.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
To my surprise, in IRM's press release, Raelian spokesperson <i><u><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brigitte_Boisselier" target="_blank">Brigitte Boisselier</a></u></i> (the perpetrator of the <i><u><a href="https://raelian-truth.blogspot.com/2017/11/clonaids-burden-of-proof.html" target="_blank">human cloning hoax of 2003</a></u></i>) apparently attempts to change the rigid Raelian mythos concerning evolution and creation by stating:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
“<i>Scientists are able to genetically modify species. In doing so, they show that random mutations are not the only path to explain how new species arose, but <b>directed mutations by advanced scientists</b> could be another way. It’s possible to imagine a large scale and deliberate genetic engineering undertaking responsible for simple protozoans, colorful birds, graceful mammals, and even Homo sapiens</i>.” </blockquote>
</div>
<div>
Looks like Raelism itself is slowly evolving to become more compatible with real science by injecting "<b><i>directed mutations</i></b>" in its discourse to show an acceptance of biological evolution, but at the same time alluding that it was indeed ETs who deliberately created such mechanisms for life to evolve with the changing environment. LOL<br />

[1] The following is the description Rael gives of Yahweh: "<i>I could see then this was certainly no child even though <b>the figure was only about four feet (1.2 meters) tall</b>. His eyes were slightly almond shaped, his hair was black and long, and he had a small black beard. I still had not moved, and he stopped about ten meters away from me. <br /> <br />He wore some sort of green one-piece suit, which covered his entire body, and although his head seemed to be exposed, I could see around it a <b>strange sort of halo</b>. It was not really a halo but the air about his face shone slightly and shimmered. It looked like an invisible shield, like a bubble, so fine that you could barely see it. <b>His skin was white with a slightly greenish tinge</b>, a bit like someone with liver trouble.</i>" (p. 5)<br />

Being about 4 feet tall and having greenish skin aren't an "exact replica" imposed on us by our supposed creators.<br />
<br />
As for the bubble, Yahweh later explains: "<i>My face seems to be in the open air, but really it is protected by an invisible shield composed of repellent rays inside which I breathe different air from you. These rays let waves pass through, but not air molecules. It's a bit like the way you prevent fuel deposits escaping from certain ports in your technology by using emissions of bubbles.</i>" (p. 105)<br />
<br />
But in Rael's alleged 2nd encounter with Yahweh, Rael relates: "<i>I noticed one difference right away. He no longer had on the spacesuit that had seemed to make a halo around his face the first time.</i>" (p. 146)<br />
<br />
Asked about this apparent contradiction, Rael brushed it off as "psychology" (p. 228). Read my take on this <u><a href="https://raelian-truth.blogspot.com/2012/08/sex-lies-and-space-suits.html" target="_blank">here</a></u>. LOL<br />

He was referring to <i><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Rorvik" target="_blank">David Rorvik</a></i>, who in his book "<i><a href="https://www.amazon.com/His-Image-Cloning-Man/dp/B001VIJHRC" target="_blank">In His Image: The Cloning of a Man</a></i>" (1978) made the startling claim that the world's first human clone had been born. Rorvik was not just a random eccentric whose claim could be dismissed. He was a respected writer who had worked as a medical reporter for both <i>Time</i> and the <i>New York Times</i>, and therefore he spoke with some credibility. His publisher,<i> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/J._B._Lippincott_%26_Co.">J.B. Lippincott Company</a></i>, itself was a well-regarded publisher of medical books.</div>
<br />
According to Rorvik, he had been approached in 1973 by a wealthy American millionaire who wanted to create a clone of himself. The millionaire, whom Rorvik referred to as 'Max' in order to conceal the man's identity, asked Rorvik to manage a research project with this aim. Rorvik accepted the challenge and used his connections as a well-placed science writer to recruit the necessary scientific talent. The scientific team was flown to a lab located on a secret island somewhere 'beyond Hawaii,' where after five years of experimentation they <i><u>succeeded in creating a viable human egg containing Max's DNA</u></i>. They implanted the egg into the uterus of a surrogate mother (an island resident code-named 'Sparrow'), and nine months later the first human clone was born.<br />

It's interesting to note that Rael emphasized how the alleged clone "<i>was produced purely from one of his own cells <u>without the female element</u> modifying his genetic code" </i>despite Rorvik stating "<i>a viable human egg [i.e. an ovum] containing Max's DNA</i>" was created. Even with our current cloning technology called <i>Somatic Cell Nuclear Transfer</i> (<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Somatic_cell_nuclear_transfer" target="_blank">SCNT</a>), a donor ovum is required. Ova contain tiny bits called <i><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitochondrion" target="_blank">Mitochondria</a></i> that remain after the cell nucleus is switched using SCNT. This is true even with normal fertilization: the mitochondria of the ovum remains, while the sperm cell's mitochondria is discarded. While it's true the female mitochondria won't modify the genetic code in the cell nucleus, this <i>female element</i> nevertheless will remain. Moreover, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitochondrial_DNA" target="_blank">mitochondria contain DNA</a> of their own.<br />

Going back to Rorvik's claims, scientists, were skeptical. They argued that Rorvik's claim could not be true because the state-of-the-art in cloning technology was nowhere near the level required to produced a human clone. The cloning technique he described was loosely based on a procedure that had been successfully used to <a href="https://academic.oup.com/bioscience/article/49/11/875/220023" target="_blank">clone a frog in the mid-1960s</a>. However, it was well known that this technique would not work in mammals because of the differences between mammalian and amphibian biology. Moreover, it should be noted that the transferred cell nucleus was not from a <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Somatic_cell" target="_blank">somatic cell</a>, but embryonic cells.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
Rorvik's book sold extremely well and sparked national debate about the ethics of cloning. However, within months Lippincott and Rorvik found themselves in court when they were sued for defamation by J. Derek Bromhall, a British scientist whose research had been cited in the book. The court asked Rorvik to provide concrete evidence of the existence of the cloned boy. When he failed to do so, the court ruled that Rorvik's book was a "fraud and a hoax." A year later, in 1982, Lippincott agreed to pay an unspecified amount of damages to Bromhall.<br />
<br />
Rorvik's motivations for perpetrating the hoax remain unclear. Money might have been a factor, although he lost a great deal of what he earned from the book to legal fees. Alternatively, he might have hoped to draw attention to the ethical issues raised by the startling advances being achieved in the biological sciences. During the 1980s these advances spawned the biotechnology industry and in 1997 allowed the (true) cloning of a mammal, a Scottish <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dolly_(sheep)" target="_blank">sheep named Dolly</a>. In this sense, although Rorvik's story was not true, it was, at least, prescient.<br />
<br />
Rael never updated his book to reflect the court's ruling in 1981. Perhaps he took inspiration from it to perpetrate his own <a href="https://raelian-truth.blogspot.com/2017/11/clonaids-burden-of-proof.html" target="_blank">human cloning hoax through Clonaid</a> in 2003.<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-sYdgzB6Q32o/WiZbAkyu9gI/AAAAAAAAA_8/BtIlKxVmJPgj0cvrP0GmlvePJ5KN-w7UgCEwYBhgL/s1600/21-grams.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="559" data-original-width="364" height="400" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-sYdgzB6Q32o/WiZbAkyu9gI/AAAAAAAAA_8/BtIlKxVmJPgj0cvrP0GmlvePJ5KN-w7UgCEwYBhgL/s400/21-grams.jpg" width="260" /></a></div>
According to Rael, the Elohim have "noted that an organism loses a <i><b>few grams</b></i> at the moment of its death - in fact this is merely the <b><i>energy</i></b> that all living things have available to them, which is eliminated at the moment" (p. 153, <i>Intelligent Design</i>) in a bid to prove that there are no ethereal souls. But, the mistake that he makes is that dead bodies do not lose any weight at the moment of death.<br />
<br />
Popular culture, thanks to a physician Duncan MacDougall who conducted a series of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duncan_MacDougall_%28doctor%29">experiments weighing dead people and animals</a> in the early 1900s, holds the belief that human souls weigh <b><i>21 grams</i></b> (MacDougall didn't notice any weight change in dead animals). Unfortunately, no one has been able to replicate MacDougall's experiment, which is now deemed pseudo-scientific. The main criticisms are that the sample size was too small (only 1 of 6 subjects supported MacDougall's hypothesis) and therefore was a case of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reporting_bias" target="_blank">selection bias</a>. Following the publication of the experiment in <i>American Medicine</i>, physician Augustus P. Clarke criticized the experiment's validity. Clarke noted that at the time of death there is a sudden rise in body temperature as the lungs are no longer cooling blood, causing a subsequent rise in sweating which could easily account for MacDougall’s missing 21 grams. Clarke also pointed out that, as dogs do not have sweat glands, they would not lose weight in this manner after death.<br />
<div>
<br />
But, how much energy do we exert at an instance, say a second? The digestion process releases stored chemical energy from food. This energy is measured in Calories. In food, what is commonly called a “Calorie”, actually refers to Kilocalories (Kcal), or 1000s of calories; a calorie is the amount of energy it takes to raise the temp of 1 gram of water by 1 degree Celsius.<br />
<br />
Okay so how much is that? 1 Calorie (Kcal) = 4184 Joules; joules is the universal measure of energy. So a 2000 calorie diet per day (recommended by FDA) corresponds to about 8.37 million joules or energy every day.<br />
<br />
Power is stated in watts; a watt is equal to 1 joule / second. So if you consume 8.4 million in a day, or in 86,400 seconds, that’s about 96 joules every second, or roughly 100 watts.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
So, the question is, does energy have weight (or, mass)? Weight of an object is the force with which the object is pulled down by earth, so you can only have the weight of material particles that have mass and are attracted by gravity . <br />
<br />
Energy on the other hand is the ability to do work, in a body; like a car moving at a speed of 100 miles an hour has energy, it can hit an object and make it move, thus doing work, or a cell has chemical energy that it converts into electricity. It not a 'material body' that can be 'weighed', it is a sort of property of the object that possesses it, because of its speed, position or state. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
However, a dead body doesn't move, and therefore does not use up any energy. Looks like Rael relied on popular ideas around the time of his supposed encounters with our extraterrestrials creators, such as <i><a href="https://raelian-truth.blogspot.com/2012/01/raelism-vs-science-pangaea.html" target="_blank">Continental Drift</a>,</i> <i><a href="https://raelian-truth.blogspot.com/2012/01/raelism-vs-science-chemical-education.html" target="_blank">Chemical Education</a>, achieving <a href="https://raelian-truth.blogspot.com/2012/01/raelism-vs-science-clone-dilemma.html" target="_blank">Eternal Life</a> </i>by cloning oneself from a single cell (including memories inside it), and <i><a href="https://raelian-truth.blogspot.com/2016/03/raels-progressive-patronizing.html" target="_blank">TV being the nervous system</a></i> of the world (without the knowledge of the Internet being developed by <i><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_Internet" target="_blank">DARPA</a></i> around that time).<br />

In Rael’s 1st book, Yahweh, The supposed leader of ETs that created all life on Earth said:<br /> <br />"So you can see that we have nothing to fear for the time being. We have the means to travel to Earth from our planet in less than two months with an atom-based propulsion method, which enables us to move at the speed of rays that are seven times faster than the speed of light.” (p. 89)<br /> <br />In Rael’s 2nd book, Rael allegedly made a trip to Yahweh’s planet. It took a little over 10 minutes, instead of 2 months:<br /> <br />"We sat down as before, and again I felt the same sensation of intense cold, but it lasted much longer this time - about ten minutes. Then the craft rocked slightly, and we stepped out through the trap door exit.” (pp. 159-160)<br /> <br />Before boarding the spacecraft, Yahweh confesses to lying to Rael:<br /> <br />"In the first message, you noted that we traveled seven times faster than the speed of light. That was true 25,000 years ago when we landed on Earth. Since then, we have made much progress, and we now travel through space much faster. It only takes us a few moments to make the journey that used to take us almost two months in those times, and we continue to progress." (p. 159)<br /> <br />Putting the lies above aside, Yahweh also claims their planet is about 1 light year away (pp. 89, 234). Okay... let’s do some maths. Traveling at 7 times the speed of light would take approximately 52 days to travel 1 light year. 52 days is 74,880 minutes. Now, 1 year is 525,600 minutes. If it takes 10 minutes to travel from Yahweh's planet to Earth, they spacecraft has to travel 52,560 times faster than the speed of light!<br /> <br />Our current understanding is that <a href="https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faster-than-light">Faster-than-light</a> (also superluminal or FTL) communication and travel cannot happen.<br /> <br />The <a href="https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special_theory_of_relativity">special theory of relativity</a> implies that only particles with zero <a href="https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_in_special_relativity">rest mass</a> may travel at the speed of light. <a href="https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tachyon">Tachyons</a>, particles whose speed exceeds that of light, have been hypothesized but the existence of such particles would violate <a href="https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Causality">causality</a> and the consensus of physicists is that such particles cannot exist.<br /> <br />Either, our scientists are too dumb or Rael/Yahweh like telling tall tales.

<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-T4Ksw1Xb9cs/WiOzRNDtBxI/AAAAAAAAA-A/g7GO6MxwFSkqTouhHTAMowzDAdoC0P46QCLcBGAs/s1600/rael%2Bpuppet%2Bmaster.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1067" data-original-width="1600" height="265" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-T4Ksw1Xb9cs/WiOzRNDtBxI/AAAAAAAAA-A/g7GO6MxwFSkqTouhHTAMowzDAdoC0P46QCLcBGAs/s400/rael%2Bpuppet%2Bmaster.jpg" width="400"></a></div>
The Raelian Messages, a collection of alleged physical and telepathic contacts between <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ra%C3%ABl"><i>Claude Vorilhon</i></a> (aka: Rael) and our supposed extraterrestrial creators - the Elohim, spanning the course of 5 years (1974-79) are messages that offer hope.<br>
<br>
They offer a promise that the Elohim will soon descend upon Earth and bestow Humanity with some 25,000 years of scientific knowledge that they've accumulated, and help transform our world into a true “<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kardashev_scale">galactic civilization</a>” - one of peace and prosperity.<br>
<br>
This will happen once certain criteria are met as detailed in Rael's compilation book <a href="http://www.rael.org/request.php?1"><i>Intelligent Design</i></a> (pp. 101-103, 293, Raelian Foundation, 2005):<br>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
- Enough wise people on Earth<br>
- Rael has a large number of followers<br>
- Warlike people with weapons of mass destruction are rendered harmless<br>
- Enough love for humanity<br>
- Enough love for the Elohim<br>
- Humanity capable of “understanding” [1]</blockquote>
The number of followers needed isn't specified clearly in Rael's original writings (The Messages). The only mention of any specific number is of <a href="https://raelian-truth.blogspot.com/2012/01/144000-arrival-vs-end-of-world.html">144,000</a>, referring to the number of people who will be saved by the Elohim to repopulate the Earth in case of Humanity's total self-destruction, and this only appears in Rael's 3rd book (p. 298).<br>
<br>
Though a date hasn't been specified in the Messages, the leader of the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ra%C3%ABlism"><i>Raelian Movement</i></a>, has arbitrarily decided on the year 2035. His reasoning is stated in the postscript (p. 370):<br>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<i>“The Elohim themselves will definitely land here in the not too distant future, around the time of what some call “the singularity”- when everything will be understood thanks to science.”</i></blockquote>
This singularity is in reference to the predictions of futurist <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Singularity_Is_Near"><i>Ray Kurzweil's</i></a>. However, 2035 wasn't the only date suggested for the Elohim's arrival, as Rael had shifted the date many times, the earliest being <a href="https://raelian-truth.blogspot.com/2012/01/2035-2025-or-2020-or-even-2015.html">2015</a>, which has already passed.<br>
<br>
On October 3rd, 2017, after 40 years of loyalty, devotion and selfless work, Raelian Bishop Guide, Daniel Chabot handed in his <a href="http://raeliantruthnetwork.org/daniel-chabots-resignation-letter-now-available-in-english/">resignation</a> to the International Raelian Movement (IRM) despite all the hopeful promises of the Messages. He was then excommunicated by Rael on November 23rd, 2017.<br>
<br>
However, this wasn't the only resignation from the Raelian structure. Following the 2003 <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clonaid" target="_blank">Clonaid</a> fiasco, perpetrated by Raelian Bishop Guide, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brigitte_Boisselier"><i>Brigitte Boisselier</i></a> and eventually deemed to be a hoax as there was no evidence to support the claims, many devoted Raelians and other high ranking members also left or were excommunicated from the IRM by Rael.<br>
<br>
Personally, I have devoted 12 years (1991-2003) to the IRM and then took an additional 5 years before waking up from a self-imposed hypnosis. Eventually, in 2009 I was branded as an “anti-Raelian” after I started to speak out on social media, and I have been a Raelian truth activist since 2012.<br>
<br>
Some have preferred to wait, as former Raelian Bishop Guide, Jean-Denis Saint-Cyr did before publishing a book, "<a href="https://booknode.com/confessions_de_rael_a_son_ex-bras_droit_01572844"><i>Confessionsde Raël à son ex-bras droit</i></a>" (Confessions of Rael to his Right-hand Man) affirming that Rael had never met any ETs. They wait until it is safe to speak out, once they've reached retirement and their careers are not at risk or to make a deathbed confession free of any negative consequences.<br>
<br>
So, what caused this sudden turnaround in people who were so dedicated to Raelism and its message of hope, to suddenly abandon or speak out against their former religion/philosophy/ spiritual path? What was their tipping point? <br>

This December, it will be the 15th anniversary of the <i><b><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clonaid" target="_blank">Human Cloning</a></b></i> hoax perpetrated by <i><b><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brigitte_Boisselier" target="_blank">Brigitte Boisselier</a></b></i> of Clonaid infamy who claimed the birth of Eve, the first human clone on December 27, 2002. The whole hoax was conceived 20 years ago by her spiritual leader <b><i><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ra%C3%ABl" target="_blank">Rael</a></i></b> in February of 1997 when he registered a hollow company in the Bahamas, as <b><i><a href="https://www.clonaid.com/page.php?7" target="_blank">Clonaid's</a></i></b> website relates.<br>
<br>
Rael has maintained in news media interviews that he and his cult, the <b><i><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ra%C3%ABlism" target="_blank">Raelian Movement</a></i></b>, had no involvement in the claim and that it all rested on Brigitte Boisselier, as the scientific director of Clonaid.<br>
<br>
But the truth of the matter is, by April of 2001, Clonaid had created a <b><i><a href="http://raelian-truth.blogspot.com/2012/01/rael-and-clones-2006-english-subs.html" target="_blank">scientific dreamteam</a></i></b>, all composed of high level members of Rael's cult. Moreover, in November 2002, Brigitte Boisselier, without the knowledge of Rael, confessed of the hoax to the top echelon of the cult in a meeting at a fellow Guide Réal Thériault’s home, and asked everyone present to keep it under wraps. These revelations came out only in the past year, more than a decade after the hoax, when <i><b><a href="http://raelian-truth.blogspot.com/2017/07/raelpressorg-scrubs-clonaid.html" target="_blank">Damien M.</a></b></i>, a Raelian Priest (level 4 Raelian Guide and biotech researcher privy to Clonaid's operations) resigned first and then got excommunicated and <i><b><a href="http://raeliantruthnetwork.org/daniel-chabots-resignation-letter-now-available-in-english/" target="_blank">Daniel Chabot</a></b></i>, a Raelian Bishop (level 5 Raelian Guide, planetary responsible of Raelian Teachings and a professor of psychology) resigned. There had been many more resignations and excommunications in the past year, most notably that of <b><i><a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCp4A29jLXiiEBvWyq58yQiQ" target="_blank">Roy Tyrrell</a></i></b>, the National Guide of the Australian Raelian Movement and <i><b><a href="https://www.facebook.com/Sophie-de-Niverville-441866156001347/" target="_blank">Sophie de Niverville</a></b></i>, who Rael had married when she was only 16 and who had remained <b><i><a href="http://raelian-truth.blogspot.com/2012/01/raels-sexual-hypocrisy.html" target="_blank">faithful</a></i></b> to him while Rael satisfied himself with his <b><i><a href="http://raelian-truth.blogspot.jp/2012/01/order-of-raels-angels-explained.html" target="_blank">Angels</a></i></b>.<br>
<br>

Now, to get to the heart of this blog post. From the recent revelations, <span style="background-color: cyan;"><b>Rael seems to maintain that as long as no one can prove Brigitte Boisselier did not produce any human clones, her claim is not a hoax and that her innocence must be assumed. Moreover, even if the hoax ever gets busted, Rael would ironically still forgive her since the whole fiasco brought him and his cult media attention.</b></span><br>
<br>
While this is true in a criminal court case, where the burden of proof falls on the prosecutor to convict the defendant, in the peer-reviewed scientific method, the burden of proof falls on the claimant and not their scientific peers. The latter is a more rigorous method to establish any truths.<br>
<br>
So far, Brigitte Boisselier has not been able to prove her claims by publishing any scientific papers nor has she been able to prove the existence of the <b><i><a href="http://raelian-truth.blogspot.com/2012/01/rael-and-clones-2006-english-subs.html" target="_blank">13 in total of the human clones</a></i></b> (between December 2002 to March 2004) she claims Clonaid has produced.<br>
<br>
The difference in the burden of proof in law and science can be found <b><a href="http://elibrary.law.psu.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1055&context=fac_works" target="_blank">here</a></b> and <b><a href="http://www.cirl.ca/files/cirl/danielle_meuleman-en.pdf" target="_blank">here</a></b>.<br>
<div>
<br></div>
Daniel Chabot explains this point in his resignation letter titled “<i><b><a href="http://raeliantruthnetwork.org/daniel-chabots-resignation-letter-now-available-in-english/" target="_blank">Balance Sheet – 40 Years of Raelism.</a></b></i>” Below are the relevant excerpts in relation to the Clonaid hoax that includes Damien M.'s and another anonymous Raelian Guide's [referred as X] interaction with Rael:<br>

The article posted in <b><i><u><a href="http://raelianews.org/news.php?extend.421" target="_blank">Raelianews</a></u></i></b> on 3 March 2011 is based on a speech given by Rael on Sunday February 20th where he tried to sell <b><i>Geniocracy</i></b> as the future of humanity. Of course his speech was riddled with <i><b><u><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doublespeak" target="_blank">Orwellian double-speak</a></u></b></i>.<br>
<br>
To start off, <b><i>Geniocracy</i></b> as defined by Rael's books is a framework for a system of global government based on the selective merit of intelligence. Yup, that's right <i>Geniocracy</i> is a form of government and here's Rael saying he thinks we won't need any government. He calls for cooperation as the way of the future giving his listeners the impression that <i>Geniocracy</i> is a democratic system with everyone's participation. Sadly, Rael's <i>Geniocracy</i> gives only those people whose intelligence are 10% above the global average to vote; only people with intelligence above 50% of the average can run for office (p. 96, <i>Intelligent Design</i>). Therefore, <i>Geniocracy</i> allows for the cooperative participation of <b><u>only 27.5%</u></b> of a population. But that's just talking about electoral participation. Elected representatives, i.e. the <b><i>World Government</i></b>, would comprise of <b><u>less than 0.5%</u></b> of the global population <b>[1]</b>! So much for the article's title.<br>
<br>
Let's move on. Rael went on to say,<br>
<div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<i>"When they hear about it, people usually think geniocracy is a political system in which geniuses have power over other people. But this interpretation is totally stupid; there is <b>no power</b> on Elohim planet. Nobody has power there. The Elohim have elected geniuses to be their leaders, and these geniuses guide everybody."</i></blockquote>
Yes, you heard it. Rael said, "<b>No power</b>". But according to his books which reinterpret the Bible, the Elohim government had the <b>POWER</b> to do a lot of things,<br>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<i>"We are talking about placing the genius in power, and you may call it 'Geniocracy"</i> (p. 97, <i>Intelligent Design</i>). </blockquote>
For example, their government exiled the "creator" Elohim scientists who ignored their law of never to create human beings. How could they be exiled if the Elohim government didn't have any power (p. 17, <i>Intelligent Design</i>)? Oh right, they must have "<i>guided</i>" them to exile.<br>
<br>
Rael continued, </div>
<div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
"<i>For example, <b>I have no power over you</b>. I don’t want power; no Buddha wants to have power. I’m just guiding you, showing you the way. And that’s how it is on the Elohim planet too. The geniocracy system is organized in such a way that the leaders show the way. They tell people, ‘This is what we should do, if you all agree we should do this.</i>"</blockquote>
Right. If Rael had no power, then what in eternity is the hierarchical power structure of the <i>International Raelian Movement</i>? Only members who are level 4 and up are authorized to "baptize" new adepts (p. 175, <i>Intelligent Design</i>). Orders come top-down. Referendums are not bothered with, so no decision is made unanimously. There's essentially no choice in these matters; for example, when Rael introduced the <i><b><u><a href="http://raelian-truth.blogspot.jp/2012/01/order-of-raels-angels-explained.html" target="_blank">Order of Rael's Angels</a></u></b></i> <b>[2]</b>, his followers had to accept it as Elohim inspired instead of having the opportunity to vote about it. Dissidents were predictably exiled, i.e. excommunicated.<br>
<br>
"<i><b>It’s just giving ideas, and then everybody accepts</b></i>," Rael explained. Yup. Just like the brilliant idea to destroy all life on Earth with nukes (this is the Raelian interpretation of the Flood, p. 18, <i>Intelligent Design</i>). Funny how the exiled Elohim scientists didn't accept such a geniocratic idea and didn't cooperate. According to Rael, the Elohim had already reached a state of paradise on their planet when in all their wisdom they had decided to annihilate all life on Earth. All this out of a supposedly enlightened Geniocratic society!<br>
<br>
Rael tries to associate <b><u><i><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Participatory_democracy" target="_blank">participatory democracy</a></i></u></b> with <i>Geniocracy</i> when he says, "<b><i>This is the future, a world governed by the people</i></b>." But, we've already noted that <i>Geniocracy</i> is a selective form of democracy where only 27.5% of a population participates politically in elections, whereas only 0.5% have the right to call the shots, which Rael would have us see it as "guidance".<br>
