I was downtown today, and someone tried to become a 'Raelian'(a cult). This guy gave me a flyer about human clonging. The flyer had a picture of a baby on it, and above the baby it said "Human Cloning: A giant leap forward for mankind!". I read the back of it, and it's pretty stupid. Rael wants you to believe that by cloning yourself, you can live forever.
You've probably heard of this cult, as it's the basis for all tv stereotypes of cults, but I didn't think stupid shit like this actually existed. I read a bit about it, and they want to create a peaceful Earth, so that the Elohim alien race can land and further advance us scientifically.
Anyway, here's the site: http://www.rael.org
Discuss.

I suppose...but they piss me off too. They can piss off the republicans all they want - that's good and fine. But when they trying to convert me, that's just going to far.

Has anyone else been approached by these fools?

Cults suck. I refuse to get involved with them in any way. If someone tried to give me a flyer about human cloning I would tell them, "No thanks" and walk away.

I would have done the same thing, but I didn't look at the pamphlet when he gave it to me. I didn't realize what it was until I got home.

excerpt from the raelian website:

This new philosophy, where spirituality and science meet, is taught at international seminars on every continent and is the final ingredient necessary to ignite a personal and global revolution of individuality, freedom, love and respect. It is already sweeping the globe and allowing humanity to transform war into peace, labour into leisure, poverty into fulfilment and money into love. The Raelian revolution is made up of people from all walks of life, from all sexual orientations, from all races, all ages, everyone different and fiercely non conformist, turning everything they touch into fun and pleasure.

...sounds almost like a cross between alien nation and "paisley park".
