I just wanted to quell any excitement my avatar might cause. That's not really a photograph of me. The Jonster is indeed a human being and definitely not alien, ergo I don't in truth hail from the planet K-PAX in the constellation Lyra. That was a fib. Although I was conceived very near Roswell, NM... Hmmmmm... Regardless, no dignified alien would play the miserable sort of chess I do. There's the definitive proof. I mean if you have the knowledge and technology to travel through intergalactic space, your chess is bound to be light years ahead of mine (pun intended). Plus, the Embassy isn't operational yet. The aliens wouldn't be plastering their mugs all over internet chess sights until AFTER a proper introduction had been made at the Raelian Embassy, am I right? Unless of course they played HORRIBLE chess to fool all the people into thinking they were human and definitely NOT alien. I hope that clears things up.

So, any of the world's 50,000 Raelians hang out here at RHP? Any clones? No?... Anyone? Any aliens who've come down incognito? Anyone? Anyone? Well, I guess you couldn't tell us even if it were so. But I'm going to have my eye on everyone who plays horrible chess here, mark my words! You can't be too careful...

LOL! 😲

Tell me though, what's a Raelian? Careful though, I can be frightfully impressionable, and I'm sure I don't really want to become Raelian no. 50,001. The Squirrel Loving cult simply would never take me back if I left for "Raelianism" (whatever that may be) 😉

I enjoyed your post 🙂

They're some wierd cult that believe that human life was 'planted' on earth by aliens, and there'll be some kind of judgement day when the aliens will come back and take them somewhere.

They caused a stir recently by claiming that a company of theirs, Clonaid, had cloned the first human life, but still haven't produced any evidence to back their story (i.e., a baby!).

Nuff respect to the leader of the wack pack - can't remember his name but it has 'Rael' in somewhere - he proclaimed that the only path to true salvation is through complete sexual liberation. He's basically an ugly, old man with a dodgy barnet, who gets to have his wicked way with numerous nubile young beauties each and every day.

They are a cult whose beliefs include "ancient astronaut"-type ideas. THey maintain that humanity is the result of cloning aliens, and have been in the news recently because the have announced that they have cloned humans, althoug they have not produced them. Not to be offending any Raelians lurking at RHP (I don't know if their ethos proscribes chess 😉), but their human-cloning clains sounds a little bit hallucinogen-influenced. I wouldn't be surprised to find out that actual peyote, jimson weed, etc. were expended in the production of that claim :s.

Oh aye! I've heard of the belief before (hmm, probably from the wonder that is the X-Files 😀), didn't know it was called "Raelian" though. Thanks for the explanations timmo and royalchicken.

19 hours before anyone replied, then two people replied within a minute. We need a spooky smiley!

Stoned smiley wouldn't be bad either. For now ":s" will have to suffice.

":s" was supposed to be "😕".
