A UFO “religion” in the context of today
Tuesday, June 2, 2015 12:45
% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.
Our academic Facebook “friend” Bryan Sentes, an occasional visitor here, wrote, along with Susan Palmer, a while back, a treatise on the Raëlians, a UFO-oriented cult that has similarities to Joseph Smith's Mormon religion and George Adamski's flying saucer musings (as I see it).
I don't know if the Raëlians are extant — maybe Bryan can enlighten — but one can find the interpolations of ufology, Catholicity, and various mythologies inside the Raëlian texts and offerings, some of which have suffused UFO's ETHers.
Urantia, The Aetherius Society (outlined in the paper), and science fictions come to mind, when one reads this erudite offering:
