Hi there,
In the very early 90s I had just taken over NEXUS and was engaged in
changing much of its contents, when I received a phone call from the new
Australian office of the Raelians. They described their organisation etc
to me, and wondered if I would like to review one or more of their three
books.
I said that I was interested and that I would read their books and make a
decision on whether to review them or not.
They sent over their three books, and I read them, and decided NOT to
review them. My decision was based upon my policy of NOT doing negative
reviews of books. (I consider there are plenty of books out there that I
can say positive things about, and thus would prefer to only publish
supportive mentions of the work of others).
A couple of weeks later, the head man in the Raelian office phoned me,
asking if I was going to review one or more of the three books. I said
no. He asked why, and I told him that we do not publish negative
reviews. He asked why I did not like the books, and here is what I said
that I observed by reading them:
1) One of the central tenets of the Raelian books, was that we humans
are the 'property' of an alien race called the Elohim. Further, we are
THEIR 'lab experiment' gone astray, and that they are returning to 'fix'
up the situation.
2) Another tenet I disliked intensely, was the idea that humans do not
have a soul or spirit. Instead, all our feelings and spiritual
experiences are merely caused by chemicals in our blood etc.
3) The Raelians also advocated a New World Order, run by a New World
Government, and maintained order via a New World Army.
Rael came to Sydney a few weeks later, and the Australian national radio
broadcaster, ABC Radio National had him on chat show, along with myself,
the popular radio host (Philip Adams) and some religious academic from
Sydney University. Unfortunately for Rael, all parties were mildly
hostile to one or more of their 'teachings'.
My other observations of the Raelian are:
1) They change their writings and logos so that they can entice as many
people as possible. Their original logo was the Swastika inside the Star
of David. Ater outrage from the Jewish community they changed it. They
also recalled and changed some of their book contents, and recent
devotees thus have no idea of the original propaganda.
2) They use open and uninhibited sex as bait to attract more followers,
who are then asked to donate a percentage of their income to the
organisation.
3) They professed to be interested in free energy research, but when we
asked Rael about what he thought of Nikola Tesla, Rael had never heard of
him.
4) Rael and his followers believe that the Elohim are returning in the
next few years or so, and that their mission is to build a temple right
in Jerusalem to host their return. (I guess they'll have to get in the
queue).
5) When it comes to the Raeliians I am VERY suspicious of who exactly
runs the show, and what their hidden agendas are. Their willingness to
change what should remain central tenets just to accomodate more
followers indicates total hypocrisy to their own 'cause'. (Not that I
agreed with said central tenets anyway).
