Raelism- The UFO cult 

The Raelian Movement is an atheistic religion that denies the existence of true supernatural gods, believing instead that various mythologies are based upon experiences with an alien race called the Elohim. Various religious prophets and founders such as the Buddha, Jesus, Moses, etc. are also considered prophets of the Elohim, chosen and educated by the Elohim to reveal their message to humanity in stages.

It is also known as the UFO cult.

Origin-

On December 13, 1973, Claude Vorilhon experienced an alien abduction by the Elohim, who renamed him Rael and instructed him to act as their prophet. Yahweh is the name of the specific Elohim with him Rael was in contact. He held his first public conference on his revelations on September 19, 1974.

Rael, alias Claude Vorilhon, claims to have received in 1974 a message of The Extra-Terrestrials, the "Elohim", who are at the origin of the human race on Earth. Here some extracts of this message:

"... God does not exist, we were the ones who made all life on earth"

".. you mistook us for gods and distorted our teachings of love"

" we now reveal how to realize your potential and achieve global peace "

Raëlism has been described as the largest UFO religion in the world. Raëlism mainly focuses on the social ideology of sexual self-determination, individualism and humanitarianism. Some of the women, who are members of this cult, are strong advocates of refinement and erotic sensualistic activities. They participate in groups within such as Rael’s Girls and the Order of Angels.

Beliefs:

Intelligent Design

Raelians disbelieve in evolution, believing that DNA naturally rejects mutations. They believe the Elohim planted all life on Earth 25,000 years ago through scientific processes. The Elohim were likewise created by another race, and one day humanity will do the same on some other planet.

Immortality through Cloning

While the Raelians disbelieve in an afterlife, they vigorously pursue scientific inquiries into cloning, which will grant its own form of immortality to those who are cloned. They also believe that the Elohim occasionally clone truly outstanding human individuals, and that these clones now live on another planet among the Elohim.

Embracing Sensuality

The Elohim are benevolent creators who wish for us to enjoy the life they have given us. As such, Raelians are strong advocates of sexual freedom between consenting adults, and their attitude toward free love is one of the most well known facts about them. Raelians therefore exhibit a very wide variety of sexual orientations and preferences, including monogamy and even chastity.

Creation of an Embassy

Raelians seek for an embassy to be created on Earth as a neutral space for the Elohim. The Elohim do not wish to force themselves upon humanity, so they will only fully reveal themselves once humanity is ready for and accepting of them.

Act of Apostasy and Baptism

Formal joining of the Raelian Movement requires the Act of Apostasy, denying any previous theistic associations, followed by a baptism, known as the transmission of the cellular plan. This ritual is understood to communicate the new member's DNA makeup to an Elohim extraterrestrial computer.
