Calling all the Elohim

Are there any Raëlians on SW, just curious? We have lots of Christians, Muslims and Buddhists. some Atheists and even Pastafarians on here so why not believers in a UFO Religion? 😃 Be kind or I will delete any nastiness.

The Raëlian Church holds week-long summer seminars called "Stages of Awakening."[149][169] These involve daily lectures by Raël, sensual meditation sessions, periods of fasting and feasting, testimonials, and various alternative therapies.[8] Activities that have attracted press attention have include dressing in the clothes of the opposite gender as part of an exercise to play with the fluidity of gender expression,[161][170] and observing one's own genitals and masturbating.[171]

Raëlians use these seminars as an opportunity to form friendships or sexual relationships.[172] Attendees wear white togas with name tags;[8] they have also used colored bracelets to indicate whether they wanted to be alone, be in a couple, or simply meet people.[173] In 1991, a French journalist attended a seminar and taped couples having sexual intercourse in tents, something then much-publicised.[112] Following these seminars, a second seminar, this time restricted to members of the Structure, takes place.[172]
