On the occasion of the 9th annual SexEd Day, Raelians highlight the importance of sex education in honor of International Children's Rights Day
GENEVA, November 18, 2023 — November 20 marks International Children's Rights Day, and to commemorate this event, the International Raelian Movement (IRM) organizes its 9th annual International SexEd Day. This event aims to promote comprehensive sex education (CSE) from childhood, in accordance with the recommendations of renowned international bodies such as UNESCO and the World Health Organization Regional Office for Europe.
On this occasion, the International Raelian Movement (IRM) is intensifying its online campaign, and regional delegations will continue their contact with education ministries worldwide and UNESCO. "For eight years, we have established contacts with institutions and professionals, including researchers from psychology departments, as well as sexologists and educators whose work and clinical observations highlight the positive impact of education on the subject,” explained Clemence Linard, M.A.Ed, who leads the international SexEd campaign.
Vehemently advocating the need to break the taboos, guilt, and shame associated with sexuality, she notes that it is imperative for governments to truly implement the guiding principles supported by UNESCO and WHO experts for nearly 15 years, particularly in countries like France where existing laws are not enforced by the relevant institutions and actors.
She emphasizes the essential role of comprehensive sex education in the perspective of a fulfilling and happy life. She highlights a crucial aspect often absent in many initial educational programs: the recognition of pleasure and all its positive facets. "In practice, in most of the world, the very little existing education is focused on risk prevention and forgets the equally fundamental positive prevention," she continued.
Clémence Linard adds that personal fulfillment requires being in harmony with one's own choices related to intimate and sexual life and fully respecting the other. "For this, education on intimacy, respect, and pleasure is essential from childhood. The earlier a child understands and respects the notion of intimacy—their own and that of others—the more they will be able to respect and ensure respect for their physical and psychological integrity and that of others," specified the spokesperson.
She recalls the coherence between these guiding principles and the teachings of the Raelian philosophy, which has been advocating for five decades the importance of explaining sexuality and the concept of pleasure that UNESCO’s and the WHO’s conclusions reflect perfectly.
"There is a glaring gap between the perception of sex education by adults, including politicians and parents, and the realities faced by children and teenagers in their daily lives. This inability of adults to recognize the importance of a worthy sex education, including the notion of pleasure, leads to considerable suffering among children, with dramatic consequences such as discrimination and abuse. This must change, and to achieve this, a global awareness of the absolute necessity of comprehensive sex education is paramount. It is a fundamental human right," insisted Linard.
Launched in 2015 by International spiritual leader, Rael, SexEd Day is a key part of a global awareness campaign advocating for sex education from childhood, supporting age-appropriate and culturally relevant programs, including explanations about masturbation from the age of 5 as specified in the original UNESCO report that was censored. This campaign aims to counteract this censorship, which is motivated by guilt-inducing religious beliefs and calls for the reissuing of UNESCO's original 2009 report and its guiding principles.
"This fundamental human right, when truly implemented, would have effects on the scale of all humanity. Happy human beings, fulfilled in their bodies, intimacy, and sexuality, are fundamentally peace-loving. This marks the end of suffering and therefore of conflicts and wars," concluded Linard.

The Eye of Cain: Rael’s Perspective on Global Conflict and the Path to Peace
In the face of global unrest and regional atrocities, Rael, the founder and spiritual leader of the Raelian Movement, offers a profound response that reaffirms the group’s mission of fostering love and happiness as the bedrock for global healing and peace.
Rael underscores the importance of happiness as the cornerstone of love, the latter being the only force potent enough to steer humanity away from the brink of destruction. He draws a direct correlation between unhappiness and the propensity for aggression and violence, pointing to the oppression, displacement, and genocide of Palestinian people as a stark reminder of this destructive and vicious cycle.
“The more unhappy we are, the more we are going to be aggressive, and therefore violent. The destruction of humanity can only be caused by unhappy people, just like the Palestinian genocide. And each violent action increases the guilt and, therefore, the lack of happiness of those responsible, in a vicious cycle where each violent action generates more unhappiness and thus more violence,” He said.
He further denounces Zionism as antithetical to Judaic principles, which espouse the sanctity of life and the commandment to love thy neighbor. “The Israelis are the unhappiest people in the world, and that's why they are the most violent. They are intrinsically unhappy because they know deep down within themselves, despite the lies of their politicians and media, that they have stolen the lands and homes of the Palestinians, which goes against the very foundations of their religion, whose most beautiful values are: 'Thou shalt not kill', and 'Love thy neighbor as thyself'," Rael stated. He added that their religion teaches them that they are the 'chosen people', but they are not chosen to dominate others, but rather to promote throughout the world this absolute value of not killing and spreading love. “With a law that eliminates any temptation to dominate, perhaps the most beautiful law of the Hebrew texts: they are forbidden to create a state or a nation! Therefore, Zionism is fundamentally anti-Semitic and anti-Jewish.”
His message extends beyond the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, casting a critical eye on the history of colonialism and the persistent ideologies of racial superiority that have led to widespread violence and oppression across the globe. “This lack of happiness, due to the feeling of guilt of having committed genocides and pillaging, can be found in all 'civilizations' that have built their power and wealth on the domination and suffering of 'others'," said Rael. “That has been the case for almost all European nations in their colonial madness, which Asians rightly call the 'white catastrophe'. North and South America with the genocide of local populations, Asia which still bears the scars of these crimes, Australia, etc... In short, the whole planet has been ravaged by this sense of racial superiority of the white Europeans and their impunity in what Americans call exceptionalism. This means, in essence, that International Law must apply to everyone except themselves. The same suffering that Israelis endure, where their crimes drive them to unhappiness and ever-increasing violence, was also experienced by colonialists in Africa, America, and all over the world, pushing them into this vicious cycle, inevitably leading to genocides."
Rael recons that the justification of racial superiority is inevitable. “In the context of a new world war that can only be nuclear, there is no doubt that all parties will justify their launching of missiles by claiming racial superiority. It is precisely this idea of racial superiority that can lead to the destruction of Humanity.” Rael further explained that the only solution for saving Humanity is therefore Love. “And this love can only be unconditional, like all true love. And it can only be generated by happiness, which, in a positive virtuous cycle, automatically brings more happiness and therefore more love.”
In this light, Rael advocates for the active pursuit of happiness and peace through meditation. “When atomic bombs and genocides accumulate, it is more important than ever to meditate for Peace and participate in the Happiness Academies. Only the spreading of happiness and love can save Humanity!” He challenges the notion that such engagement is an act of selfishness in the face of global suffering. Instead, he frames the spread of happiness as a moral imperative and the most effective strategy to halt the cycle of violence and create a foundation for lasting peace. “It is precisely to stop this suffering that we MUST spread and develop happiness. Happiness is the only solution to save Humanity because it brings Love. That is also why we must stop indulging in images of bloody children and spread more beauty, art, and Happiness.”
The Raelian Movement invites individuals to look beyond the tragedies that dominate media narratives and to contribute to a new chapter for humanity.
From December 9 to December 16, 2023, Rael will lead the International Happiness Academy at the Busena Terrace in Okinawa, Japan. Raelians from all continents are expected to attend this unique event that will also feature the 50th anniversary of Rael’s encounter with extraterrestrial scientists at the origin of life on Earth.

Mashiach Rael: ''The awaited Third Temple will never be built in Israel!''
In 1988, Rael, Spiritual Leader of the Raelian Movement, and much-anticipated Mashiach, proclaimed, “The writings in the Elohim's Messages intended for the Jewish people are unambiguous: should Israel refuse to build the Embassy for the Elohim within its borders, the miraculously created small state would cease to exist, and the beautiful dream would turn into a nightmare, leaving a legacy of regrets for countless generations. This would lead to another diaspora.”
The Elohim, an ancient Hebrew term translating to 'those who came from the sky,' wanted the Third Temple to be built in Israel. However, given its actions and the current situation, this prospect has changed. “It’s too late for Israel to accept the Construction of the Embassy. This can, however, be accepted by a Palestinian authority,” declared Mashiach Rael, the Ambassador of the Elohim on Earth. He further asserted, "Only a Palestinian state is now acceptable, with total democratic equality and without apartheid for the two peoples."
Raelian Chief Rabbi, Leon Mellul, drew parallels between contemporary Israel and apartheid-era South Africa, suggesting that decades of Israel's unacceptable actions on Palestinian land and over the Palestinian people are actually worse. He stated, "Peace between these Semitic brothers is still achievable, but every new war crime, like the Gaza massacre, makes it more difficult. Israel no longer deserves to exist because it betrayed all the exemplary values of Judaism by stealing the land and homes that don’t belong to them and, more importantly, by not respecting the most important commandment, 'You shall not kill’, and accumulating nuclear weapons capable of killing millions of people in one go and sparking off a world war capable of destroying the entire creation.”
Mellul emphasized a critical point of common lineage, stating, "It's imperative to recall that both Israelis and Palestinians, Jews and Muslims alike, are descendants of a common patriarch: Abraham!"
Leon Mellul concluded by highlighting a pivotal historical refusal, stating, “The State of Israel has, on seven occasions, declined to issue the authorizations required for the construction of the Third Temple, intended to welcome the Elohim, on its territory. Consequently, in December 1997, Mashiach Rael declared that any nation in the world could be solicited to host the most important project in the history of mankind."
The Elohim are not gods. Rather, they are advanced scientists from another planet, who are the creators of all life forms on Earth. Over time, they have sent us many Prophets, including Moses, Jesus, the Buddha, Muhammad, and in 1973 their last Messenger, Rael. He was chosen to spread a message of love and hope and to reveal the true genesis of life on our planet. The Elohim, these scientists from the stars, are very peaceful and are far more advanced than we are, both scientifically and philosophically. The Third Temple is intended as an Embassy—a designated space for official contact with our creators. The much-anticipated arrival of the Elohim on Earth will usher humanity into an era of peace and a Golden Age.

The Raelian Movement Calls for a Global Silent Meditation for Peace
Following the eruption of violence in the Middle East, involving Hamas and Israel, Rael, spiritual leader of the Raelian Movement, extends an invitation to both Raelians and non-Raelians to engage in a Silent Meditation for peace, taking place in front of Palestinian and Israeli Embassies and Consulates worldwide.
According to the Raelian scriptures, every religion has been initiated by messengers contacted by the Elohim—a civilization responsible for creating all life forms on Earth. "Rael serves as their last Messenger," declared Leon Mellul—Raelian Guide heading the Raelian Movement in the Middle East. "Rael is the much-anticipated Mashiach for Jews and the Mubashar for Muslims. Part of his mission involves informing the public (particularly those presently embroiled in conflicts in their god’s name) that there is no god. Instead, there exists an infinity of other beings and civilizations in the universe who still hold hope that we can transcend our destructive inclinations to fight for our beliefs,” he added.
Rael has consistently expressed, "The belief in a single and almighty god is the root cause of some of the greatest tragedies in human history. From the colonization of Europe by Muslims and the Crusades to the wars of religion, the Inquisition, Nazism, and more recent conflicts like those between Pakistan and India, Cyprus, Ireland, Kosovo, and the Middle East, it has always been in the name of an Almighty God that people have torn each other apart and committed acts of violence.” The persisting tragedy in the Middle East exemplifies this without exception.
Mellul elaborated further, "Part of Rael's mission also includes building an Embassy to respectfully and peacefully welcome the extraterrestrial beings responsible for our creation. They expressed a desire to have it established in or close to Jerusalem—a location where numerous messengers have been sent in the past and where they anticipated the Jewish people would build the requested Third Temple. This is the underlying reason why Rael has persistently proposed a peace plan aimed at resolving this conflict."
During the Silent Meditation, Rael's proposed Peace Plan Solution will be shared with the ambassadors from both nations involved. The Silent Meditation for Peace is slated for Friday, October 27, at 11 a.m.
Rael also emphasized the significance of the International Raelian Movement's organized global meditations, encouraging maximal participation to send concurrent waves of peace and love, aiming for a tangible impact.
The forthcoming global meditation will take place on Zoom, accessible at # 89859579850, on November 11 @ 14:00h UTC. (www.1min4peace.org)
"In essence, we are each akin to a tiny cell within the larger organism that is humanity," concluded Mellul. "Let's merge our strength and foster our love for each other as a unified being, a humanity that can live alongside other humanities. Otherwise, we risk self-destruction. The survival of humanity rests in our hands."

Rael Reaffirms His Opposition to the COVID-19 Vaccine
Las Vegas, Sept 24 -- With Autumn comes the renewed “threat” of Covid vaccines. The FDA has recently given the green light to new mRNA vaccine formulations and shots, and the European Commission has secured an impressive 4.2 billion doses. Meanwhile, studies continue to come out, highlighting the serious side effects of these vaccines, and continue to be published in peer-reviewed journals (1).
For Rael, Spiritual Leader of the Raelian Movement, it is paramount to reiterate his staunch opposition to the mRNA vaccine.
"This injection of the mRNA vaccine against COVID-19, through its very nature, clearly displays its function by indicating that it modifies the RNA pool. Any modifications of the RNA pool will automatically modify the DNA," Rael emphasized this week. "Everyone should have refused it from the outset, and Raelians even more as they should be models for Humanity. According to the Raelian philosophy, the Elohim, the advanced scientists responsible for creating all life forms on Earth, have endowed us with a flawless immune system. Any 'therapy' claiming to enhance it is an affront to our Creators. It is not too late to save some individuals."
Early on, during the so-called pandemic, Rael alerted the public about the dangers associated with the mRNA vaccine and championed the freedom to refuse it.
"I advocate for the freedom to live life and risk it as you please," Rael declared in 2021. "Whether it involves mountain climbing, deep-sea diving, motor racing, or any other activity that brings you pleasure, no authority should have the right to prevent you from doing what you like. It is your most fundamental freedom to be anti-vaccine, an anarchist, or anything else you wish to be. [It's] Your freedom to embrace conspiracy theories and to be proud of it! To be a member of a cult and to be proud of it! To be an atheist, anti-theist, communist, or whatever else interests you. And you don't have to care about what the bleating sheep call you. On the contrary, claim your positions proudly!"

Raelians to celebrate Swastika Rehabilitation Day, seeking to increase awareness about the symbol’s ancient meaning
LAS VEGAS, June 22 – Swastika Rehabilitation Day will be held on June 24 around the world. Sponsored by the International Raelian Movement and Proswastika Alliance, this event will be an opportunity for Raelians around the world to continue to promote the true meaning and origin of the swastika by informing people about its peaceful and ancient meaning.
According to Martin Hétu, international leader of Swastika Rehabilitation Day, the swastika has marked humanity for millennia and is revered by billions of people around the world. And even though Westerners still associate it with Hitler and Nazi crimes, the public is increasingly aware of the sacred meaning of this ancient symbol—thanks to the swastika rehabilitation campaigns that have taken place all over the world for the past decade.
“The swastika has long been cherished by Hindus, Buddhists, Jains and Raelians alike as a religious symbol,” said Hétu, “and to cast aspersion on this religious symbol and trying to ban it would be tantamount to banning a religion. It would be an affront to the members of that religion and clearly a violation of religious freedom,” he added.
While Raelians are outraged by the crimes against humanity committed by the Nazis, they also adamantly believe that their annual swastika rehabilitation campaign is a great way to help restore the symbol’s peaceful original meaning. “It’s unfortunate that Hitler besmirched such a revered symbol that has existed for thousands of years, and even though we cannot change the past, our worldwide education campaigns have gained momentum over the years and resulted in promising positive outcomes,” Hétu continued.
According to Raelians, before the Nazi era the swastika had only positive meanings of good fortune and well-being all around the world including in Israel where it is displayed in old synagogues, and to continue to affiliate it with Hitler is counterproductive and makes it all the more difficult to acknowledge the fact that symbols do not kill people but only people do.
“Education is the solution, not casting aspersion on the symbol or trying to ban it outright," concluded Hétu. "That’s what Swastika Rehabilitation Day is all about."

International Day of Paradism: For a world without work, without money, and without powers, thanks to Artificial Intelligence
May 1st marks the International Day of Paradism (paradism.org). Within the context of the exponential and inevitable development of Artificial General Intelligence (AGI), Raelians declare that these technologies offer hope and a bright future for our humanity, freed from work, money, and power.
“AGI is an extraordinary step forward, and if used in the service of human well-being and fulfillment, it is the key to a new level of civilization as well as a society of leisure and abundance known as Paradism,” explained Jean-Pierre Saulnier, Raelian Guide and spokesman for Paradism in Europe.
Recent progress in the creation of AGI has caused growing concern around the world, even among those who designed them. “AGI fears are misplaced. It is not the excess of intelligence that we should fear, but rather the lack of love," he added.
According to a recently published article by Jarel Aymonier, engineer and leader of the International Campaign for Paradism, intelligence is defined as the ability to process information quickly and accurately. Although very powerful, it is neutral, neither inherently good nor bad. It is the use of intelligence that can be powerfully good or powerfully bad (see https://paradism.org/news.php?item.93.4).
“The development of AGI is excellent news," continued Jean-Pierre Saulnier. “It will bring down capitalism by eliminating work and money, and the controlling powers of the elite. AGI can better represent human beings than politicians because its sole purpose will be to help people self-govern and make collective decisions."
In view of this new model for our humanity, the spokesperson emphasizes that governance by AGI is a democratic anarchy. “It is a form of anarchy because there is no need for a power structure and direct democracy when AGI is designed to serve humans."
The Paradism concept was first thought of by Raël, founder and spiritual leader of the International Raelian Movement, and the first campaign was launched in 2009. Its goal is to turn the Earth into a paradise. Based on the rise of new technologies and their application, Paradism is a political system in which the working class and all forms of human labor are replaced by robots, nanobots, and computers, capable of doing much better than humans. Under such conditions, humans can instead devote their lives to their personal development and to doing what makes them happy: creating, doing research, studying, practicing art, etc.
"An AGI designed to love us and used with humanistic values is a guarantee for a wonderful future, more abundant, more equitable, more just, and more satisfying than anything we have ever known and imagined. That is what Paradism would look like," concluded Jean -Pierre Saulnier.

“AGI is an extraordinary step forward, and if used in the service of human well-being and fulfillment, it is the key to a new level of civilization as well as a society of leisure and abundance known as Paradism,” explained Jean-Pierre Saulnier, Raelian Guide and spokesman for Paradism in Europe.

"AI represents Mankind's salvation." The Raelian Movement responds to Elon Musk's alarmist statements while expressing concern over the closure of ChatGPT in Italy
Billionaire Elon Musk, along with hundreds of other prominent personalities and managers, has formally called for the suspension of artificial intelligence (AI) projects for at least six months on the grounds that innovation, in this context, would proceed too fast and he fears that it would take over our lives.
"We are slowly but surely approaching the scenario described by Rael, spiritual leader of the International Raelian Movement, over twenty years ago in his book, 'Yes to Human Cloning'," said Marco Franceschini, national leader of the Raelian Movement. "It is impressive and quite amusing to see how Rael's predictions take shape before our very eyes with startling precision."
In his visionary book, the author reveals, with extraordinary foresight, the future that awaits us and describes the growing concern of those who, unable to understand and adapt to changes, will anxiously witness the crumbling of their paradigms.
"These are generally individuals whose thinking is contaminated by evolutionary theories and who imagine a dystopian scenario whereby we will be subjected to rebellious machines," Franceschini added. "This is a completely implausible hypothesis since any software, no matter how developed, will never do anything other than execute the instructions encoded within it, unless its creator deliberately programs it to act in a way that moves it from Artificial Intelligence to Artificial Consciousness status. But there is no way this can happen spontaneously, as many wrongly believe has happened for the living species on our planet."
In his book, Rael makes a lucid examination of the possible and eventual implications of this scenario. He describes a distinctly present-day situation and invites readers to look at the upcoming future objectively and with optimism, imagining a vast array of powerful, interconnected tools that are designed to do no other than put their enormous potential at the service of humanity -- as the brightest human minds could never do.
He writes: "If our existence allowed us to achieve the creation of a higher form of consciousness, without harming the planet and all the animal and plant species living on it and without even risking conveying our violence and disrespect for the environment into the universe, would that really be a bad thing? Wouldn't a planet without violence, without suffering and without pollution, governed by a superior computer consciousness, be worth more than a planet run by humans where billions of people go hungry while millions are in hospitals or prisons, and hundreds of animal and plant species disappear every day?"
Thus, the introduction of AI into our society would be a much desired event that could prove decisive for our very survival and for the resolution of all the problems aforementioned that we have created and are seemingly, unfortunately, unable to solve on our own in this delicate and crucial phase of our social evolution.
"In an age when we have, for the first time in history, enough potential to instantly destroy every form of life on the planet, and our rulers threaten to use it with disarming levity, would it not be preferable to be guided by a sophisticated AI apparatus rather than by the stupidity and limited foresight of humans? Or, are we so self-centered that we would even be willing to jeopardize our own survival in order to assert a hypothetical and ephemeral superiority of man over machine?", asked Franceschini.
To this end, the recent decision by the Personal Data Protection Authority agency to suspend Italian citizens' access to ChatGPT -- the well-known artificial intelligence software capable of simulating and processing human conversations -- cannot be overlooked and seems questionable.
Franceschini stressed, "We want to believe that this is a temporary measure that does not hinder or conceals other purposes, because the motivations are quite questionable. To think that we are preventing minors from being exposed to responses that are inappropriate with respect to their degree of development and self-awareness is ridiculous. For consistency, one should then question the education given by incompetent parents, unqualified teachers and especially the role of religious institutions that impose silly beliefs and rituals on infants. As for the issue of the storage and possible disclosure of our personal data, I find this type of overzealousness suspicious and even hypocritical, since it is now well known how the Internet and users' phone traffic in every part of the world is closely monitored by agencies of some countries through their surveillance programs (Echelon and the like), without our governments ever showing as much diligence in taking action."
The reality is that any attempt to legislate against all forms of innovation is doomed to failure, because nothing will prevent science's inevitable progress and that of human society.
"This paradoxical situation only highlights the gap in knowledge and understanding of events between the individuals of our time -- even those endowed with the most vivid imagination -- and those who deepen and embrace the Raelian philosophy. This is quite normal, considering the fact that it has been transmitted to us by an extraterrestrial civilization, the Elohim, with twenty-five thousand years of technological advance on us and is responsible for the scientific creation in the laboratory of all forms of life on Earth. They have had a history that is comparable to our own and are in a better position than we are to know the pitfalls along the way, as well as the paths that can lead us to the creation of a paradise on Earth, thanks to the peaceful and responsible use of our scientific knowledge," concluded Franceschini.

Raelians call for a Happiness Day every day
The Raelian philosophy states that all forms of life were created by scientists who came from another planet and who had one goal in mind: create happiness.
“Happiness is embedded in our genes, and it’s the default and natural state we should all enjoy each day,” said Kotaro Murakawa, spokesperson and coordinator of the Raelian Happiness Academy. “One Happiness Day per year isn’t nearly enough to reverse the culture of misery that we live in and that we are fed daily. Happiness should be taught and cultivated at every level of our society. Children, for instance, are our best models because they are constantly in that natural state—the one we must strive to preserve throughout our lives,” he continued.
Rael, spiritual leader of the International Raelian Movement, describes Happiness as a decision, a choice, a discipline, a training, and a duty. “Happiness,” he said, “has to be cultivated. And the way to do that is by replacing our current culture of’ having’ with a culture of ‘being’.”
Rael also explained that being happy isn’t a selfish state. “The key is to be so happy that everybody looking at you, without saying anything, without one word, just looking at you, becomes happier. That’s the ultimate goal."
“Let your happiness make others happier. Radiate so much happiness that when you walk in the street, people you meet and who may be sad will start smiling instantly just by looking at you. Then, the happiness turns into love. And that’s what you have to focus on; to really be happy, to give love, to make a planet happy,” Rael concluded.
Happy days to all!

UFO wave in America: Extraterrestrials are always peaceful
Following the wave of media coverage on the UFOs shot down in North America, while nothing proves they were extraterrestrials, Raelians, once again, insist on the fact that all sightings that are extraterrestrial in origin are intelligent and peaceful, and abide by an absolute rule in the universe : people capable of escaping their planetary system are always peaceful.
"The notion of ‘undisclosed top secret’ on anything related to UFOs leaves the public skeptical and in the dark, thus maintaining a general confusion on the origin of these sightings of 'Chinese balloons’ or ‘extraterrestrial UFOs’. The time to reveal the truth has come and the Raelian Movement has been doing so for nearly half a century,” said Gyom Demba, spokesperson for the European Raelian Movement.
The spokesperson stresses that for an extraterrestrial civilization to fly over our skies implies it benefits from infinitely more advanced technology than that of humans on Earth, and that it is therefore able to detect danger and has the means necessary to avoid any weapon system that our governments and military are currently using.
"Even if it were extraterrestrial UFOs that had shown no hostility, the belligerent attitude of these leaders demonstrates the impossibility of establishing a direct and peaceful contact considering the the current state of our planet,” added Demba.
Let us recall that in 1973, Raël, spiritual leader of the International Raelian Movement, was contacted by a very advanced extraterrestrial civilization that scientifically created all life forms on Earth. Since then, Raelians have been disseminating the message received by this civilization to humanity (see www.rael.org); this message includes the “cosmic law” aforementioned. “Only civilizations with a level of wisdom that exceeds their scientific achievements can avert self-destruction and reach a high level of interplanetary civilization,” Rael expressed in a recent press release.
Gyom Demba goes on to point out that humans on Earth are at precisely this critical juncture in their evolution and that it will self-destruct if aggression is left unchecked. “Reacting with violence to everything that is foreign only proves the ‘primitive’ nature of our civilization in the eyes of these intelligent beings from outer space. This is precisely the reason why they are not trying to establish a direct contact and why it is essential for us to put in place the necessary conditions for an official welcome, with all the guarantees attached to them,” specified the spokesperson.
It is in this sense that Raelians are campaigning worldwide in order to acquire the requested land to build an embassy for extraterrestrials with internationally-recognized extraterritoriality status. Since last year, the international project “An Embassy for Extraterrestrials” has been presented to mayors of major cities all over the world (www.elohimembassy.org).
“The time has come for us to understand that the UFO phenomenon is a reality, and that a peaceful civilization is visiting us regularly and wants to meet with us officially. It is time to consider the following truth: we are the product of an advanced civilization that has left traces of its passages in religious writings and archaeological remains. The evidence is there. It is time to get objective information, and to connect the dots between the UFO phenomenon and the revolutionary vision that this information triggers,” concluded Demba.
