Help build an embassy for Aliens! It's good to know that even in the 21st century humanity hasn't lost it's taste for bizarre causes and mindless superstition.

I've heard the Israeli representives of this cult talking on a local talk-show, they were really self-assured, and all they wanted was to buy land with the cult's money, (it's said to have more than 30 million dollars, or 30 billion) get an exteritorial status on that land, and build the alien embassy on it. then, they said, all acts of violence will stop, and all of humanity will be better. I say, in these crazy times, why not let them try ?

For more raelian hilarity, it was discussed here, here's their take on Sept. 11th in case you missed it.

Yep ... that's another good one. And quite a bloody one at that.

Maybe I've got this all backwards, but let's assume for the sake of discussion that we discover a new extraplanetary governmental organization. Wouldn't we open and normalize diplomatic negotiations toward official recognition before the ETs needed an actual embassy?

Good. I thought for sure the 21st century would be the Age Without Mindless Superstition.
