by Billy Cox It’s been awhile since we’ve heard anything from Maitreya Rael, the former French Formula racer who rejected his slave name — Claude Vorilhon — following an alien abduction and started the International Raelian Movement in the Seventies. Imagine an entire nation celebrating this way. It's easy if you try/CREDIT: populationstatistics.com And then boom, this week, out of the blue, Rael announces what the recent UFO flap over China is all about. Apparently, the ETs, or “Elohim,” are lobbying China to build the world’s first intergalactic embassy because China has the world’s most advanced society. Rael cites China’s one-child-per-family birth-control policies, its rejection of “monotheistic, superstitious values,” and the fact that “China doesn’t have military bases around the world to dominate others, unlike the United States, which has 180 bases worldwide to guarantee world domination.” But something about the timing of this announcement kept bugging me, so I went to the calendar, and there it was — almost a year to the day since De Void attended the Raelians’ Boobstock ‘09 in Miami Beach. Flashback to wonderful memories of four (4) UFO babes — some hotter than others, obviously — protesting the fact that guys can get away with showing their nipples in public anytime they want, but if chicks do it they get arrested and fined. And it wasn’t solely about women’s rights. They were doing it to liberate us guys, too. “If the presence of a topless woman in public triggers a sexual impulse,” writes Rael athttp://www.gotopless.org/, “it can easily be controlled in the same way men control themselves when they see a woman wearing a mini skirt or revealing ample cleavage. Men manage to appreciate these things while still showing respect! Choosing consciousness above hormones leads to a peaceful, respectful society providing additional freedom and beauty.” Well, the laws are still just as stupid and oppressive as they were last year, so the Raelians will be Boobstocking again on Sunday, in nine cities across the U.S. De Void would love to file another live report, but after having lost an alternator and a radiator this summer, and knowing how things happen in threes, the prospects for breaking down in Dade County and getting drawn and quartered by highway cannibals are pretty high. So De Void is sitting this one out and waiting for the Elohim to establish diplomatic ties with Beijing, where state police will make sure good times are had by all at the ensuing Boobstock China party. You may say I’m a dreamer. But I’m not the only one.

WARNING FROM RAEL: For those who don't use their intelligence at its full capacity, the label "selected by RAEL" on some articles does not mean that I agree with their content or support it. "Selected by RAEL" means that I believe it is important for the people of this planet to know about what people think or do, even when what they think or do is completely stupid and against our philosophy. When I selected articles in the past about stupid Christian fundamentalists in America praying for rain, I am sure no Rael-Science reader was stupid enough to believe that I was supporting praying to change the weather. So, when I select articles which are in favor of drugs, anti-semitic, anti-Jewish, racist, revisionist, or inciting hatred against any group or religion, or any other stupid article, it does not mean that I support them. It just means that it is important for all human beings to know about them. Common sense, which is usually very good among our readers, is good enough to understand that. When, like in the recent articles on drug decriminalization, it is necessary to make it clearer, I add a comment, which in this case was very clear: I support decriminalizing all drugs, as it is stupid to throw depressed and sad people (as only depressed and sad people use drugs) in prison and ruin their life with a criminal record. That does not mean that there is any change to the Message which says clearly that we must not use any drug except for medical purposes. The same applies to the freedom of expression which must be absolute. That does not mean again of course that I agree with anti-Jews, antisemites, racists of any kind or anti-Raelians. But by knowing your enemies or the enemies of your values, you are better equipped to fight them. With love and respect of course, and with the wonderful sentence of the French philosopher Voltaire in mind: "I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it".
"Ethics" is simply a last-gasp attempt by deist conservatives and
orthodox dogmatics to keep humanity in ignorance and obscurantism,
through the well tried fermentation of fear, the fear of science and
new technologies.
There is nothing glorious about what our ancestors call history,
it is simply a succession of mistakes, intolerances and violations.
On the contrary, let us embrace Science and the new technologies
unfettered, for it is these which will liberate mankind from the
myth of god, and free us from our age old fears, from disease,
death and the sweat of labour.
Rael
