This is Rael. He’s the leader of the Raelian UFO cult. He believes that cloning, by chopping off your head and transplanting it onto the body of a donor clone … humans can achieve immortality.
And he doesn’t just believe it, he’s been experimenting with it too.
Rael is also the founder of Clonaid, a company claiming to have successfully created 13 human clones … so far.
This story is as weird as it is terrifying.
Some people are fascinated by the idea of human cloning, and others worry about the ethics and safety. The scientific community is skeptical with many experts questioning the validity of Clonaid’s claims.
And I’ve got a stunning reveal on Clonaid that’ll rock your world, so stick around to the end to find out what it is!
Cloning, Immortality, and Playing God – The Raelians
The Raelians claim they’re technically not involved with human cloning or Clonaid. Even though its leader founded and is believed to have financed the company, and has literally appeared in front of the US Congress, on behalf of the Raelians and Clonaid, to talk about the legitimacy and need for human cloning.
Who are the Raelians? Who is Clonaid? Are the claims of human cloning legit?
And why is nobody talking about the Raelian nightmare of head and brain transplants for the future of human immortality?
The Raelian Connection to Cloning
The Raelian Movement is a UFO religion founded by former journalist Claude Vorilhon in the 1970s. Claude, who is now known as Rael, claims he was visited one day by aliens who asked him to share the message that all human life on Earth was created as part of a genetic engineering experiment by extraterrestrial beings known as the Elohim.
Since 1973, the movement has attracted a significant number of followers with estimates suggesting there are over 50,000 Raelian members worldwide.
The movement’s leader, Rael, has been a vocal advocate for human cloning and has even testified before a House subcommittee on the subject.
In his testimony he stated that cloning is a key step in achieving immortality and that his ultimate goal is the creation of a new generation of super-beings, able to live forever, through involved processes of cloning.
Let that sink in for a moment. A new generation of super-beings who will live forever.
And these genetically superior super-humans will retain the memories of their original souls throughout eternity.
How?
Well not through the cloning process, you can be sure of that. That’s not how cloning works.
But through something more dark, sinister, and gruesome than any normal person could ever possibly imagine … a process that I’ll regrettably get into in a moment.
But first …
In the Raelian movement, the ritual of “Transmission of the Genetic Code” is their most important ritual.
And no, “The Genetic Code” is not a new book by Dan Brown!
The Transmission of the Genetic Code is a sacred and spiritual ritual performed by higher level members known as priests or bishop guides. The ritual is performed four times a year and involves telepathic communication with the Elohim, the aliens, along with the collection of the participant’s genetic code for safe keeping by Clonaid.
Safe keeping for what? For the future cloning process and the achievement of immortality of course.
The genetic code is “collected” by the guide who dips their hand in water and places the droplets onto the initiate’s forehead. Hair and nail clippings are also collected and stored. And of course, as you probably have already guessed, a certain very specific bodily fluid is alleged to be collected through a sensual and erotic massage during the ritual.
Use your imagination and I’m sure you’ll figure out what that means.
In fairness, I say alleged because the claims of cultural promiscuity and exploitation made by former members are completely denied by the Raelian movement.
When the Elohim return to Earth, the collected genetic codes will be used to make human clones.
And how will they do this?
I thought you’d never ask!
Clonaid
In March of 1977, a few months after the groundbreaking announcement by the scientists who successfully cloned a living sheep, Dolly, Rael founded a company called Clonaid.
Rael’s vision offered a unique perspective on cloning. He believes that cloning, with the assistance of head and brain transplants, holds the key to achieving immortality and a means to prolonging memories in new donor bodies.
Donor bodies.
His vision is deeply rooted in his spiritual belief that humans are an extraterrestrial creation, the result of experimental cloning here on Earth to achieve more desirable genetics and biological superiority.
At the helm of Clonaid is Brigitte Boisselier, the CEO, a Raelian Bishop, and the next in line to lead the Raelians after Claude’s death.
Now this is where it gets tricky. Both Brigitte and Rael acknowledge that there are indeed philosophical and ideological links between the Raelian movement and the Clonaid company, but make the claim that Clonaid is a private company separate from and not funded by the movement. Ignoring the fact that Rael himself founded the company.
You know, the same Raelian movement that denies being involved in human cloning. That one.
The connection is strong enough to raise questions about the company’s motivations.
Some people have suggested that Clonaid’s true goal is to create new generations of Raelians or on a more sinister note, to farm replacement, otherwise known as donor, organs and bodies for its members.
And again for full transparency and fairness, Boisselier has vehemently denied these claims, stating that the company’s only goal is developing cloning technology solely as an aid for human reproduction to help infertile families to have children.
So, who the heck is Brigitte Boisselier anyway, and what does she know about cloning?
Brigitte Boisselier and Clonaid
Dr Brigitte Boisselier is an accomplished French chemist and research scientist. She studied at the University of Paris and worked with the French National Centre for Scientific Research as a biochemist.
Her experience in the field of biochemistry and her research background made her a strong candidate to lead Clonaid’s cloning efforts. Not to mention of course, that she was already in tight with Rael as well as being a Bishop in the Raelian movement.
Under Boisselier’s leadership, Clonaid made headlines in 2002 with the announcement of the birth of “Eve,” a baby girl. The company claimed that Eve was the world’s first human clone, produced through a cloning process called reproductive cloning.
Human cloning is banned in France and heavily restricted but not entirely banned in the United States.
Brigitte claims that this has caused Clonaid to work in secret, in countries that are friendlier towards human cloning, such as Israel – the birth country of baby Eve.
It’s because of these heavy regulations, outright bans, and the possibility of arrest or imprisonment that Brigitte and Clonaid say their research has to be conducted in secret.
Clonaid’s Timeline of Human Cloning
Baby Eve was born on December 26th.
Baby Even was born on December 26th to an American mother in Israel as the result of a technique called somatic cell nuclear transfer.
Somatic cell nuclear transfer, SCNT for short, is like photocopying at a cellular level. The nucleus of a regular body cell like a skin or blood cell (the somatic cell) is removed and transplanted into a donor egg cell that has had its nucleus removed.
The donor egg cell is designed to help new life grow. As it begins to grow, it starts to divide and eventually creates a new organism that is the genetic clone of the of the original cell’s owner.
By the way, Eve’s name is no coincidence.
It was chosen to emphasize Clonaid’s god-like role in the creation of a new human life form.
And by Clonaid, we mean Rael and the Raelians.
I mean, that alone should tell you everything you need to know. It’s like a dystopian science fiction movie coming to life.
In 2003, Clonaid next announced the birth of Isabelle.
Isabelle was born to a Dutch lesbian couple who were reported as stating they were thrilled with the arrival of their new baby girl and were looking forward to parenthood.
In 2004, Clonaid claimed that a sixth clone baby was born in Australia. The company announced that the baby, a boy, was born to an Australian couple. The news was reported by several Australian news outlets, including the Sydney Morning Herald and the Australian Broadcasting Corporation.
Since then, Clonaid has gone on to claim it has produced 13 human clones in total so far.
And the strangest of them all …
American rapper Kid Buu claims that he is a 2nd generation clone who managed to escape from the Clonaid facility.
I’m not kidding.
I wish I was.
It’s my guess that Kid Buu is even worse at math than I am … ‘cause he’s 36 years old and the Raelians didn’t start experiment with human cloning until 2002 … when Buu was already 14 years of age.
But here’s an even bigger problem.
A clone is a living copy of the original, but it lacks the memory of the original.
So how on Earth do the Raelians plan on solving this memory dilemma?
What’s the horrifying connection of memory and consciousness retention to immortality?
Well get ready to have your mind blown … completely off
The Horror Of The Raelian Cloning and Immortality Process
According to Rael and the Raelian’s own published information, they believe the idea of head and brain transplantation could be a viable means of memory and personality transfer in the pursuit of immortality.
This creepy dark process is call Brain Data Transfer and it literally involves transplanting a living person’s head and brain onto a cloned donor body, allowing …
… I don’t know … the person? Clone? The abomination?
… to live with the full consciousness and memory of their previous life and the added benefit of a fresh new body.
The preservation of human memory and consciousness seems like a revolutionary breakthrough and maybe even a good idea …
No, not really.
It doesn’t seem like a good idea at all.
It’s a living horror show that is gruesome and sinister beyond imagination.
The idea of transplanting heads and brains was first popularized by Italian neurosurgeon Sergio Canavero. Not only has Sergio proposed procedures for transplanting living human heads onto donor bodies, a medical miracle in itself, but he also claims to have done it.
It’s a fascinating science fiction concept, but in real life it raises a whole bunch of philosophical, ideological, moral, and ethical issues.
And that’s just to name a few!
One of the most disturbing aspects of the Raelians’ Brain Data Transfer concept is the fact that it requires the sacrifice of a living clone.
Let’s break this down for crystal clarity.
The living person’s head and brain are cut off and surgically reattached to the living clone’s donor body. Which means that the head and brain of the living clone’s donor body has to be cut off too.
And now your left with a former living human body and a former living clone’s head and brain … both of which are alive but no longer needed.
Both to be tossed away into the garbage like yesterday’s bad news.
The horror of a living being, any living being whether cloned or human, being sacrificed like this is unfathomable, not to mention beyond immoral and unethical.
The implications of this are staggering.
It raises questions about what makes us human, the nature of identity and consciousness, and whether it is possible to transfer a person’s essence, spirit, and soul into a new body. It raises concerns about the morality and ethics of creating and sacrificing living beings, even if they are clones, for the purpose of extending human life.
It’s a stark reminder of the dangers of playing God for scientific achievements. There are just too many moral and ethical issues, not to mention the value and dignity of life … human or otherwise.
It begs the question as to what the meaning and nature of life is … are we just a collection of cells and tissues, or are we complex multifaceted entities worthy of dignity and respect?
It also makes me wonder … where have I seen this before??
Oh yeah!
The Island – Taking It Further
The 2005 film starring Ewan McGregor and Scarlett Johansson tells the story of a futuristic world where clones are created as donor bodies and spare parts for wealthy and privileged clients.
If you haven’t seen it, you should. It’s actually a pretty good movie.
It strikes me that Rael, Brigitte, and the scientists a Clonaid must have seen it too.
Spoiler Alert: If you haven’t seen the movie yet … I mean it’s been almost 20 years now … I’m about to ruin the experience for you.
The story takes place in a dystopian future where so-called humans are living in an underground facility called “Utopia”. They believe they are the last lucky survivors of a catastrophic event that made the surface of the Earth uninhabitable. In this controlled environment, their every need is taken care of.
And every once in awhile, a lucky few inhabitants win a lottery to live on a cleared and cleaned and inhabitable paradise-like tropical island on the Earth’s surface.
But Ewan and Scarlett begin to question the true nature of Utopia and quickly learn they are the inhabitants of a cloning facility. They are clones, created to serve as spare donor parts for their wealthy and powerful sponsors who live on Earth’s surface. A surface that has not experienced a catastrophic event at all.
And the Island? It’s simply a way to trick the clones into remaining calm and controllable, a way of explaining where the so-called winners keep disappearing to after they’ve been harvested.
Needless to say, when the clones find out, they don’t like it.
If Clonaid and the Raelians have actually created living clones … human-like beings with their own unique identity and consciousness, they’ve essentially created a scenario where human beings are nothing more than objects … commodities … rather than living beings with inherent value and worth.
This is a deeply disturbing and dehumanizing concept, as it reduces both humans and clones to mere meat bags. Sellable on an open market rather than recognizing either as living, thinking, and feeling individuals.
The philosophical and ethical questions about the nature of personhood, identity, and humanity are just mind blowing … pardon the unintended pun.
Is a clone human?
Is a clone sentient? Does it have a sense of its own existence and will for preservation?
Does a clone created for organ harvesting or as a donor body have rights? Dignity? Or are they mere products for sale?
If clones are not human, what are they? Can they be used for sport or other diabolical purposes like those from the movies “The Most Dangerous Game,” “The Hunger Games,” “The Condemned,” or “The Running Man”?
And what of the former human who is transplanted into a non-human donor body.
Are they still considered human, or do they become something else entirely?
The Theseus Paradox
The Ship of Theseus paradox is a classic thought experiment that raises questions about the nature of identity and change.
It’s a paradox that has puzzled philosophers for centuries, and it has interesting implications for our understanding of the Raelian’s claims about cloning and brain transplantation.
Imagine the ship in which the hero Theseus sailed to Crete where he defeated the Minotaur. Over time, the ship’s planks and timbers begin to rot and need to be replaced. As each plank is replaced, the question arises: is the ship still the same ship? If not, at what point does it cease to be the same ship?
Imagine that a person, let’s call her “Ava”, has her head and brain transplanted onto a clone of her own body, effectively replacing her original body with a new one.
Is the resulting being still Ava, or is it the clone of Ava, or is it an entirely a new entity?
The paradox highlights the complexities of identity and what makes us human?
Is it our DNA, our physical characteristics, or our memories and experiences? Or is it all of those combined? If you take one part away, what happens?
If the clone has the same DNA and physical characteristics as the original Ava, but different memories and experiences, is the clone Ava?
Ouch! My super brain super hurts!
This can’t and shouldn’t be real.
The Skeptics Speak Out
Experts and scientists have expressed skepticism about Clonaid’s claims of human cloning.
The fact that Clonaid has not provided any verifiable evidence, including access to the human clones, has led skeptics to believe this is just one big hoax.
Why? I dunno.
Maybe it’s for notoriety, fame, fortune, or maybe it’s to sell off a haunted Dybbuk Box like Kevin Mannis in our Dybbuk Box video. If you haven’t seen it yet, watch it next!
Scientists have also pointed out that the success rate of cloning is extremely poor. They’re surprised that Clonaid appears to have overcome these low success rates and the high failures associated to cloning.
Dr. Ian Wilmut, the scientist who led the team that cloned Dolly the sheep, has also expressed skepticism about Clonaid’s claims.
In an interview with the BBC, Wilmut stated that Clonaid’s claims were “not credible” and that he had seen no evidence to support their assertions. He also pointed out the number of medical and health issues Dolly experienced and suggested the possibility of new viruses and diseases as a result of cloning gone bad.
Other scientists have also questioned the validity of Clonaid’s claims. Dr. Robert Lanza, a cloning expert at Advanced Cell Technology, has stated that Clonaid’s methods are “not scientifically sound” and that their claims are “not supported by any credible evidence.”
And many scientists have pointed out that Clonaid’s founder, as accomplished as Dr Brigitte Boisselier is, she simply doesn’t have the scientific training, background, and expertise in the field of cloning to pull something like this off.
Answering The Skeptics
And just when you thought it was safe to go back into the genetic waters, there are also counterarguments that support Clonaid’s research and work.
Some supporters of Clonaid argue that the media has mislead the public about the risks and benefits of human cloning, unfairly maligning the company. A few supporters even go so far as to say that the company’s claims of human cloning are being suppressed by governments and powerful entities who are opposed to the technology.
And then there are those who claim that Rael has a unique spiritual and intuitive understanding of the cloning process, in part as a gift from the visiting Elohim aliens who claim to be our creators, that allows him to achieve success where others have failed.
Dr. Brigitte Boisselier herself, states that Clonaid’s research is focused on the therapeutic benefits of cloning, such as the creation of stem cells for medical use. That the company’s technology is based on the same, sound scientific principles that have been successfully tested with animals, including pet dogs and cats.
She also points out that the claims of lack of transparency are wrong. The company’s research has been peer-reviewed and published in reputable scientific journals. And that the company is committed to sharing its research with the scientific and academic communities.
Where Is Clonaid and Rael Now?
The Raelian movement, once infamous for its outlandish claims of human cloning, has largely faded from the public eye in recent years. The press, having been burned by the movement’s repeated hoaxes, has lost interest in attending Raëlian press conferences.
Rael has since moved the Raelian headquarters to Japan where he now lives, and the Raelians continue to attract new members, boasting of a membership of over 50,000 human people.
Clonaid, the movement’s cloning arm, claims to be banking DNA samples for clients and Raelians who want to be cloned after they die, but its website is outdated and broken, and the organization appears to be in disarray. All requests for information and comments have resulted in silence.
And remember that stunning reveal that I promised at the beginning of the video?
Well get this. Shortly after the controversy in 2004, Clonaid and its founders quietly founded another company called Stemaid International Ltd. The links to Clonaid, Brigitte Boisselier, Rael, and the Raelians are barely visible. The company promotes itself as a medical research and development agency, and is very actively providing embryonic stem cells to the medical community.
I only found out because I found an old statement in which Boisselier referred to Stemaid as Clonaid’s “Sister Company”.
So yeah, the living plot of “The Island” thickens. And since Rael claims the aliens will make themselves known in 2035, I guess we’ll find out for sure in just a few years.
Mystical Finale
The quest for immortality and the blurring of lines between human and clone is just the beginning.
The Raelians’ pursuit of eternal life through cloning and head transplants might just very well be a gift from the Elohims. But it may not be the way to get ahead in life.
But what if the key to unlocking the secrets of life and death lies not in the labs of Clonaid, but in the depths of the Peruvian desert?
Recently, a team of archaeologists made a shocking discovery that could change everything we thought we knew about human history. Two tiny, humanoid bodies, estimated to be over 1,000 years old, were unearthed in a remote region of Peru. But these were no ordinary mummies… they were unlike anything anyone had ever seen before.
As the news of this discovery is spreading, the scientific community is abuzz with speculation.
Are these bodies evidence of an ancient civilization that defied the laws of nature? Or is this proof of something even more extraordinary?
The truth is out there, and it’s more astonishing than you ever could have imagined. Watch this episode of the supernatural chronicles now to uncover the secrets of the Alien Bodies of Peru.
The truth will blow your mind … and this time you won’t lose your brain.
