Did Raël meet Anunnaki?

 (Quotations are stated under the “fair use” principle for educational purposes)

Claude Maurice Marcel Vorilhon calls himself Raël and claims to have been chosen by extraterrestrials in an encounter in 1973 to bring their message to the world. He then founded a sectarian movement called Raëlism and wrote several books about the “message” and the Raëlian “religion.” In the 80es, I once saw a notice about a lecture he was going to give about this in Zürich. I did not go to the lecture but found two books by him in a bookshop that I bought out of mere curiosity and still keep in the “poison cabinet” of my library. One is called The Message Given To Me By Extra-Terrestrials, to day available under a new title Intelligent Design (cf. this critique). I have only scanned through the book a bit and do not want to insult my intellect through reading it thoroughly. The following discussion only picks some of the items out from the book.

     While researching a bit about the Mesopotamian texts and the Anunnaki, it came to my mind that there could possibly be a bit of a connection here.

Let us for the sake of discussion assume that Vorilhon really did meet extraterrestrials and not just invented the story, reading about them is quite revealing concerning the lack of real morality in their message. They would, according to what they tell, most probably be Anunnaki. One reason for this impression is that they deny the existence of a Creator God and of a human soul, quite like the Anunnaki in their way did something comparable in the far back past in declaring the Creators to be dead*. “It is necessary for people to understand that there is no ethereal ‘God’, but only people who created other people in their image.” About their own origin, they say, For we were also created by other people, who have since disappeared. Their world has quite certainly disintegrated, but thanks to them, we were able to continue in their steps and create you.” If they would be able to stretch their minds a little bit further and try to research their true origin (which they apparently do not want to do, maybe for fear of what they would find), the logical conclusion they would arrive at could only be an original creator at the beginning of it all. Talking about the soul, “… if one can imagine an immortal soul escaping from the body after death … one cannot imagine where it would go, given that the universe is infinite” is a remarkable contradiction and a logical somersault! In an infinite universe, there will be no limit to possibilities of where it could go! Maybe they are simply unaware of still higher dimensions than their own, or maybe they just want their people to believe so for political reasons.

If I had met them, I would have been less credulous and asked them critical questions. But in  these days few persons were aware of the fact that there are various extraterrestrials and that one by no means can trust them all…

A leader of a group of these extraterrestrials that calls themselves the “Council of the Eternalspresented himself to Vorilhon under the name “Yahweh” – and a moment later he says that he is also called Allah… Their philosophy (or what you may like to call it) is purely materialistic, completely lacking spirituality. Their “god” is nothing else than science.

They claim that they secretly helped Jesus perform miracles: “He continued to heal the sick with the help of the creators [that these ETs claim to be] who directed concentrated beams from a distance … And he did the same for a man who was completely paralyzed. The operation was carried out from a distance using a concentrated ray, something like a laser, which burns only one spot through several layers.”

Their concept of love is a bit strange: “The people who will not be able to prove their intelligence will not survive. Humans have almost proved that they are worthy of being recognized by their creators as their equals. They lack only ... a little love. Love for each other, and particularly for their creators.” [My enhancement.]

They advocate a political system they call geniocracy: “When individuals reach a responsible age, their intellectual coefficient can be measured and included on their identity or voter’s card. Only those with an intellectual capacity of at least fifty per cent above the average should be eligible for a public post. To vote, individuals would need an intellectual coefficient of at least ten per cent above average… Therefore, right from the start, the right to vote should be reserved for those people whose brains are more suited to thinking and finding solutions to problems - that is to say, an elite group of high intelligence. This does not necessarily mean those people who have done the most studying. We are talking about placing the genius in power, and you may call that ‘Geniocracy’.” A cold intellectual rule by the minds of those who are considered clever enough to serve the system, and not by their hearts... The rule that is needed is by open-minded empathy and love!

“There is no criminality where we live, thus no prisons and no police. However, there are many doctors and regular medical visits for the mind. Those who show the slightest sign of psychological imbalance that could threaten the life or liberty of others are immediately given treatment in order to bring them back to normal.” This quite clearly includes that those who dare to think for themselves and have other ideas than the rulers are “corrected” by means of whatever “therapy.”** Knowledge is injected: “We can transmit information by the injection of brain memory matter, thus our children have almost no work to do. They regularly undergo injections of brain matter taken from people possessing the information necessary for instruction.” Beyond doubt only chosen, permitted and distorted “knowledge” about what one should believe is true. A pharmacologicical dictatorship!

Vorilhon was allegedly taken to a space station where a very large number of these ETs live. Maybe he really was, or maybe he was simply subject to a holographic illusion. In any case, he saw people there being served by “robots”, who even function as sex partners: “In addition, men who wish to have one or more companions outside the relationships of equality that exist between eternal men and women, or who do not want to live with a woman on an equal basis, may have one or more totally submissive biological robot women with the exact appearance that is desired. The same goes for women, who can have one or several totally submissive biological robot men.” A brothel society without the love that makes sexuality real… What they call “robots” seems to be biological zombies deprived of own will and real feelings…

Vorilhon was given a demonstration of some kind of a huge machine that allegedly produces such beings: “One of the robots came towards me, and with the help of a small device similar to a syringe, pricked my forehead so lightly that I hardly felt it. Then he inserted the syringe in the enormous machine and touched other parts of it. Again an entity was formed before my eyes. As the skin covered the flesh, I saw another ‘me’ take shape, little by little. Indeed, the being that emerged from the machine was an exact replica of myself. … We could now send the other you back to Earth, and people would not notice a thing. But we are going to destroy this replica immediately, for it is of no use to us.” If this is really real (however fantastic it certainly appears to be), it raises the question: Was this replica truly destroyed, or was Vorilhon replaced by it and his double returned to the Earth?

These ETs stated new commandments. One should think of these “Elohim” every day (feeding them with devotional energies…) and “those who act against the Guide of Guides [Vorilhon] and try to prevent him carrying out his mission, or who go along with him in order to spread strife amongst those who follow him, they will also see their life become hell. Without any obvious influence coming from above, they will know why disease, family and professional difficulties, emotional woes and other problems will all invade their earthly existence while they await their eternal punishment.” Could a threat be more evil?

They do criticize people who “just follow orders”, like Nazi war criminals. By their own words, we are, therefore, free to not follow their orders! Unless we are really convinced that it is the right thing to do – and they may “convince” us with their “injected ‘knowledge’”…

What is alarming here is that these things resemble various attempts of the New World Order to control and manipulate humanity, their minds and their thinking – even in new ways to control the education of children that have certain zombiefying aspects… also in new “liberal” views on sexuality being indoctrinated to schoolchildren already at an early age. See the now evolving “common core” education in the USA.

The peak of absurdity is stated by this “Yahweh” when guiding Vorilhon around the space station: “In this machine are kept the cells of malevolent people who will be recreated to be judged when the time comes. They are cells from those on Earth who preached violence, wickedness, aggressiveness and obscurantism. Despite having in their possession all the elements to understand where they came from, these people did not have the sense to recognize the truth. They will be recreated to undergo the punishment they deserve, after being judged by those whom they made to suffer or by their ancestors or descendants.” How utterly meaningless to for the mere sake of revenge recreate a copy (and that is all that it would be) of an evildoer and punish it in a farcical show trial. What would that change? What is done is done and cannot be reversed, and if not recreated, such a person could never be in the position to do such a thing again… But since they do not want us to know about karma and reincarnation of the human soul in another body, they will have to give us such a fantastic materialistic idea... and thus make their own karma, only in a very different time scale.

It is stated that Raphael (generally considered to be an archangel) would be “one of the creators’ robots.” Still under the hypothesis of the possibility that the encounter really occurred and that this is not merely invention or illusion, this would mean that these self-alleged “creators” (who claim to be Elohim) would have manufactured Raphael. The word Hebrew word Raph or Reph is usually understood as “to  heal”, but can also mean “mend, repair” or in a wider sense “put together, assemble”, suggesting an understanding of of manufacturing something. The Rephaim or Raphaim were an ancient race of “giants” that had survived the deluge, i.e., they were Nephilim, descendents of the Anakim (“sons of Anak”), which word in the Bible quite obviously refers to Anunnaki. This might cast some more light on what kind of guys these ETs are...
