Why some follow Rael

Cults

Abdullah Hashem secretly taped the Raelian UFO cult's meetings.

"There are a lot of people (at these seminars) who believe in aliens, and all these beautiful women who will have sex with you even though you're a dork," he said. "And that's why most people were there."

Some Sex With Your Clone Perhaps?

Comments

I went to a weeklong seminar this last summer and I think people like Rael cause he preaches much like what Jesus maight've said only without all the baggage that came later with the church. The people were really nice. And the higher muckity-mucks, what they call bishops and such, seemed to be truly nice, knowleable people. Anyway, people were sweet, and actually quite good looking, and I didn't see any reason not to like them. No one tried to proseletyze me or shove ideas down my throat. The nature was beautiful - it's right above Vermont - and with all the meditation and fairly interesting workshops, I had a pretty good time. That was my experience, at least.

How do you feel?

Feel free to share your feelings about Why some follow Rael. Please stick to the theme of the entry. Disagreement is fine. Homophobia, racism, and kindred expressions of hatred will be deleted. This site is one of my hobbies. I genuinely enjoy hearing from people and hate moderating or killing comments. Forthright disagreement is fine as long as it is civil.
My thanks,
Richard
