Founder of the Raëlian messages

Further information: History of Raëlism

In the book Le Livre qui dit la vérité ("The Book Which Tells the Truth"), Vorilhon claimed he had an alien visitation in December 13, 1973. In a secluded area within the ditch of a French volcanic crater, an extraterrestrial being came out of a craft which had fallen gently from the sky, and told him (in French) that he had come for the sole purpose of meeting with him. The alien being gave Vorilhon a message and told him that it was his mission to pass this message on to the people of Earth.^[26] His meetings with the human-like extra-terrestrial lasted for six consecutive days, one hour each day.^[27] // 1970s Alleged accounts of the history of the founding and beginning of the Raëlian Movement in the country of France are mainly written in Raels books The Book Which Tells the Truth (1974) and Extraterrestrials Took Me to their Planet (1975). ... is the 347th day of the year (348th in leap years) in the Gregorian calendar. ...

The book claims that advanced human scientists from another planet with 25,000 years of scientific advances created all life on Earth.^[28] These scientists, Vorilhon says, were originally called Elohim or "those who came from the sky"^[29] and that some forty^[30] prophets in Earth's history were sent by Elohim, but their messages were distorted^[31] by humans, largely because of the difference in the level of civilization between the advanced race and our primitive one.^[32] This article is about the Hebrew word. ...

Vorilhon claimed he was given the demystifying mission of informing the world of humanity's origins through mission welcoming the return of the extraterrestrials by building a residential embassy in neutral territory.^[33] He claims that certain mysteries were explained to him based on new interpretations of sacred texts such as the Bible.^[34] He made the claim that on October 7, 1975 he was contacted by an Elohim who took him to another planet where he met Buddha, Moses, Jesus and Muhammad and received teachings passed on in his second book Les extra-terrestres m'ont emmené sur leur planète ("Extraterrestrials Took Me To Their Planet").

Raël's marriage life

In 1973, Marie-Paule was pregnant with her first child with Vorilhon, a daughter named Aurore.^[11] In 1974, Claude Vorilhon finally decided to give up automobile magazine Autopop.^[3] On that September, the last issue out of 34 was published.^[25] Unfortunately for Marie-Paule, Vorilhon devoted himself fully to the task allegedly given by his biological "father", an extra-terrestrial named Yahweh.^[36] Shortly after a first public conference, Vorilhon founded MADECH - a group of people interested in helping him in his huge task, which later became the International Raelian Movement.^[37] Vorilhon and Marie-Paule had 2 children.^[11] For other uses, see Yahweh (disambiguation). ...

Vorilhon's marriage with Marie-Paul continued to worsen as he would only be home half the time.

Eventually Marie-Paul gave Vorilhon an ultimatum, "You have to choose between me and the movement." He chose the movement, and by 1985 the two divorced after 15 years of marriage. On 2003, Marie-Paul thought that Vorilhon was not "mad" but "devious, crafty, manipulative and very, very clever". As of late, she had rebuilt her life after recovering from the circumstances surrounding Vorilhon, and she had not seen him since 1985, according to her testimony on the Daily Mail in 2003.^[11] However, sociologist Susan J. Palmer, said nurse Marie-Paul diagnosed Vorilhon as clinically depressed, after he appeared at her door step in 1987, being burned out from the tasks he carried out within the movement.^[38] The Daily Mail is a British newspaper and the oldest tabloid, first published in 1896. ...

Vorilhon had focused on spreading the message in Japan in the 1980s, and by 1987, he acquired a Japanese consort, Lisa Sunagawa. Lisa soon began accompanying Vorilhon during his travels to places like Lima, Miami, Brazil, and Martinique. In 1989, Vorilhon and his "sa douce compagnon" (his sweet companion Lisa) spent time together during Christmas in Switzerland.^[10] In a television documentary, They're Coming! (1990) by Radio Canada, Vorilhon was seen with four racially diverse women,^[39] while Lisa, in slow-motion, wore a pink tutu and held hands with him.^[10] CBC redirects here, as this is the most common use of the abbreviation. ...

Vorilhon separated from Lisa some time between 1990 and 1992. Around that time, Sophie, whose mother and aunt were both Raëlians, was soon convinced of the messages and had a Raëlian baptism at age fifteen. When she turned sixteen years of age, with the permission of her mother, Sophie married Vorilhon at Montreal's city hall, for the convenience of avoiding legal issues while traveling internationally. During a December 2001 interview with sociologist Susan J. Palmer, Sophie remained in positive terms with Vorilhon even though they divorced in the year prior.^[40] On August 6, 2003, the Cybercast News Service said Vorilhon moved back to Canada with his wife Sophie de Niverville after being escorted out of South Korea by government officials.^[8] is the 218th day of the year (219th in leap years) in the Gregorian calendar. ...

Former racecar driver

In 1994, rich Japanese Raëlians rented a race car and showed it to Claude Vorilhon. They believed that it would generate publicity for the movement. Claude accepted the offer on the condition that the funding must not come from member tithes or embassy funding. So the funding of Raël's races which took place in the 1990s and early 2000s came mostly from well funded European and Japanese people.^[7] Some of his best finishes included, "a 3rd place finish in GT 1 in Lime Rock with the Mosler Raptor in 1997, and a 7th place finish at Watkins Glen with a Viper GTS R in the FIA GT 1999 race."^[41] Claude Vorilhon, under the name of Raël, participated in the 1999 BFGoodrich Tires Trans-Am Series and the 2000 Speedvision GT Championship. According to Canadian sociologist, Susan J. Palmer, Claude Vorilhon made an announcement in November 2001 that he intended to retire from professional auto racing.

Technology advocate

Much of Vorilhon's advocacy concerning more futuristic technology is described in his 2001 book, Yes to Human Cloning. He believes decisions involving human genetic engineering would be done to avoid genetically inherited diseases as well as to put less of an economic burden on society, and that no distinctive emphasis needs to be allocated to a particular race or religion.^[56][57] Elsewhere in this book, he says nanotechnology will make it possible to have micro-distributive power generation (effectively a power plant in each house), fur-like furnishings that are self-cleaning with hair-like fibers that move on their own,^[58] and even biological robots.^[59] Nanostructures control biology, so Vorilhon expects someday that meat and salads will be grown in a machine via molecular construction.^[60][61] Human genetic engineering refers to the controlled modification of the human genome, which is the genome of Homo Sapiens composed of 23 pairs of chromosomes with a total of approximately 3 billion DNA base pairs containing an estimated 30,000 genes. ...

Claude Vorilhon believes that the present reality of genetically modified food is the only way to stop hunger everywhere in the world, and he sees a future where qualities of different foods can be combined through direct genetic modification.^[62] In Vorilhon's book, Extraterrestrials took me to their planet (book number 2 in the volume entitled Intelligent Design), he said that animation of plant life was possible through nanotechnology and that he was presented genetically modified flowers on another planet that swayed and changed colors with music.^[63] Kenyans examining insect-resistant transgenic Bt corn. ...

Criticism

Appearances in the media

In 1992 when Claude Vorilhon appeared on "Ciel mon Mardi", a French TV talk show hosted by the popular journalist Christophe Dechavanne. Towards the end of the show, Vorilhon’s liberal views on sex were critiqued by a priest, a social worker, and a psychologist. A former Raelian named Jean Parraga claimed that Rael was treating his wife and children like prisoners in an attempt to break up his family. He thought they were being treated like criminals in activities such as orgies and sacrifice involving children at the Sensual Meditation camp. Jean Parraga was dressed in suit who expressed his concern as a father and heartbroken husband. However, Parraga also had a criminal as a drug dealer and car thief. In August 1992, Parraga attempted to shoot and murder Claude Vorilhon.^[64] Raëlians from around the world sent letters of protest to Dechevanne’s TV station. Dechavanne felt that this was "incitement to violence" and sued Rael. The judge appointed to the case decided to call Raël in for questioning. Raël then agreed to ask his members to stop sending letters if the public apologized. The two parties agreed to drop the feud.^[64] Christophe Dechavanne is a popular French radio host and program producer. ...

A Swiss newspaper that called Raelians "rat heads" was sued for defamation. Another suit was brought against journalist Stephane Baillargeon for writing in the Montreal daily Le Devoir that the Raelians defended pedophiles and that certain ex-Raeliens claimed the "gourou" liked very young girls. After some negotiation, Le Devoir published a letter from Rael condemning the charge as "ignominious defamation" and asserting that the Raelian Movement had "always condemned pedophilia and promoted respect for laws that justly forbid the practices that are always the fault of unbalanced individuals."^[64]

Michel Onfray was offered by Raël the title of Honorary Guides of the Raëlian Movement, which he refused. The Onfray was disgusted with the idea of trying to justify himself when speaking of "the smallest acts of the mentally ill" and delirium and was disturbed that the media had paid any attention to them. He described Raël as a source of "foul smelling rubbish", and said he does not save religions or even failed religions (cults).^[65] Michel Onfray (born January 1, 1959 in Argentan, Orne, France) is a French philosopher. ...

On two separate court dates of September 2, 1994 at the High Courts of Paris and October 1, 1996 at the Appeal Court of Paris, journalists Jacques Cotta and Pascal Martin of Flammarion Publishing were found guilty of attributing racist statements and distorted quotations to Raël in their book "Dans le secret des sectes". They were fined 10,000FF in damages, 13,000FF in proceedings costs, insertion of stickers mentioning the sentence on copies not yet distributed, suppression of the passage in the next editions, and 100FF for each non conform copy.^[9] is the 245th day of the year (246th in leap years) in the Gregorian calendar. ...

Government action against Vorilhon

Raëlians asking to stop the prohibition of Raël's entry into Korea

In response to Claude Vorilhon's association with Clonaid, South Korean immigration authorities at the airport denied him entry into their country in 2003.^[67] This decision led to the quick cancellation of the planned Raëlian seminar which seven hundred registered for.

Raëlians say they encourage adult homosexual, bisexual, and heterosexual relationships and that society should recognize them legally.^[68] However, government authorities such as those in Switzerland fear that Raëlians are a threat to public morals for supporting liberalized sex education for children. The authorities believe that such liberalized sex education teaches youth how to obtain sexual gratification which would encourage sexual abuse of underage children.^[2] The Raëlians disagree with those fears and stated that sex education done properly would involve educating parents as well as children.^[69] An early 20th century post card documents the problem of unwanted pregnancy. ...

Nevertheless, in February 2007, Vorhilon was denied residence in the Swiss Canton Valais for promoting the concept of sexual liberty and sexual education since it led to fears that he may do harm to children. Another reason was his association with the Clonaid human cloning claim; Switzerland forbade human cloning. Vorhilon wanted to have commercial activities with the local vintners. In a brief statement, Vorhilon said he considered appeal at the European level.^[2] Capital Sion Population (2003) 278,200 (Ranked 9th)   - Density 53 /km² Area 5224 km² (Ranked 3rd) Highest point Dufourspitze 4634 m Joined 1815 Abbreviation VS Languages French, German Executive Conseil dEtat, Staatsrat (5) Legislative Grand Conseil, Grosser Rat (130) Municipalities 160 municipalities Districts 13 districts, Bezirke Website www. ...
