I....I...just don't know where to take this. God love them.


The last paragraph of the posted article gives about ten possible subjects, each requiring it's own thread.

Thank God this group is harmless.

It's just the nature of man to be aggressive. Count me in as a woman who thinks that is a good thing. I want my man to be just as aggressive as the one who intends to harm my family and children and home.

Women have an innate affinity for kindness,'' Newman said. It's the goofiness in statements like this that make me want to deprogram them. Women can be just as hurtful, careless, deadly as men. Men haven't' cornered the market on those qualities, just as women haven't cornered the market on kindness and generosity. She is painting with too wide a brush.

``Wouldn't it be beautiful if men, instead of going to into battle with machine guns, carried roses in their hands?'' Okay, maybe it's the insomnia talking here, but statements like this just make me cranky. Stop trying to make men into something they never will or should be. A man can bring peace just as he can bring war. I want a man that can do both.

Hmmm...not bad. HOw can I find these "Raelians?" LOL

[Cincinatus' Wife]

.... nearly a dozen scantily-clad Raelians paraded......the seven women marched from Washington Avenue to Alton Road...

Media math.

BWAHAHAHAAHAHAHA!

Whatever happened to the Raelian woman with baked bean teeth who was going to clone herself? Yuck!

[IronJack]

The body is beautiful and we should be free

Before you agree, think Madeline Albright in a thong. Hillary Clinton in a leather bustier. Helen Thomas ...

"Race-car driver cum prophet, Rael"

Here he comes, here comes Rael Racer, he's a prophet on wheels...

From the Raelian homepage we have:

Looks like the same gal in the newspaper photo. According to the Raelian homepage;

Lisa, Hollywood, FL Therapist of Chinese medicine "Spread our wings to the harmony of Infinity... to celebrate our dreams!"

She's pretty cute.

`Wouldn't it be beautiful if men, instead of going to into battle with machine guns, carried roses in their hands?'

A tactician she ain't.

[Codename - Ron Benjamin]

Don't tell me Raelians were just another expression of the sooo redundant old and tired cult to "mother fertility". I expected them being something more extravagant.

"Wouldn't it be beautiful if men, instead of going to into battle with machine guns, carried roses in their hands?"

A gun, by any other name...

[Triggerhippie]

Raelian sighted!

[JoJo Gunn]

Come to Momma!

[SIDENET]

Thanks. Now I'm going to have nightmares.

[mountaineer]

This bunch could have attended the Dyke Ball at Wellesley College and raised nary an eyebrow.

I need more coffee. I read this too quickly and thought you said "if you click on their photos you can smell them."
