Raelians censored and expelled by Sydney’s Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras Parade
2012-03-01T19:02:00+00:00
admin
admin@nospam.com
After refusing to comply with censorship imposed by Sydney’s Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras Parade, the Raelians have been expelled after 12 years of participation in the event.Raelian spokesperson Luke Roberts, who also speaks for ARAMIS (the Raelian Association of Sexual Minorities), explained in a statement released today that the parade committee objected both to the use of mainstream religious symbols in the word HOMOPHOBIA and to the phrase, “Homophobia is criminal bible bullshit.”In his statement, Roberts (aka Pope Alice, an icon of the Gay Movement) denounced the Mardi Gras committee’s request to remove religious symbols from the word “homophobia.”“It’s an absurd request considering that mainstream religions created homophobia in the first place,” he said. “And use of the word bullshit is really pretty mild when there isn’t a word despicable enough to describe the religious killings of millions of GLBTQ people [the acronym stands for Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgender and Queer] for centuries, or for the ongoing bullying, gay bashing and murders inspired by religious leaders and texts. Nor is there a word to convey the hopelessness that young gay, lesbian and transgender people feel in a world full of religious prejudice against them.”“It was a worrying development when the Mardi Gras committee pandered to religious pressure and thereby insulted the founders and the very spirit of Mardi Gras,” Roberts continued. “The committee actually lost sight of the reasons this event originated. It appears that religious individuals have infiltrated Mardi Gras to pursue their agendas against gay rights and other freedoms, just as they do in schools and governments.”Roberts said it’s important for those who disagree with such agendas to speak out now.“To be silent on this serious matter is to be complicit with the censorship of free speech by the Mardi Gras board and its Parade Committee,” he emphasized. “If we don’t speak out against the homophobic crimes of mainstream religions, we are also complicit in those crimes, and thereby doomed to live truncated lives dominated by religious bigotry.”“That’s why we’re asking all gay Christians, gay Muslims and gay Jews to leave their religions. By remaining in those religions, they are hypocrites supporting crimes against their own people, and they’re also giving strength to mainstream religious fervor, whether they are openly gay or not.”Roberts said the Raelian Movement understands that the Bible “has been manipulated by vested human interests and needs to be censored to remove the lies and hateful passages.” But he said Raelians respect other Biblical passages that detail contact with the Elohim, a race of extraterrestrial scientists mistaken for gods by our ancestors. Raelian philosophy teaches that the Elohim “made humans in their own image and after their own likeness.”Raelians also respect Christ as one of the great prophets, along with Buddha, Moses and Mohammed.“More than ever, we must speak out and prevent religious lobbying and prejudice masquerading as political correctness,” Roberts said. “We must show that those with this agenda are putting undue pressure on Mardi Gras. And most of all, we need to ask, ‘Now that you know, what can you do about it?’ With that in mind, we’re asking those with floats in this parade to highlight religious homophobia by displaying our message.And we’re also looking for people prepared to hang the “banned banner” on their buildings and/or in window spaces along the parade route, particularly at Oxford and Flinders Streets, or on their floats during the Mardi Gras Parade. We ask the community to assist us in getting this message out by promoting it freely and openly!”Please help! ARAMIS (the Raelian Association of Sexual Minorities) has put out a call to all who wish to spread our message: HOMOPHOBIA IS CRIMINAL, BIBLE BULLSHIT.

An Argentinean Bishop resigns because of homosexuality

admin@nospam.com
An Argentinean bishop resigned shortly after the diffusion of a videotape showing his sexual frolicking with a 23 year old young man; this, according to the Argentinean press which stated Monday that the bishop had apologized.(Picture: Mgr Maccarone)This video was addressed to the ecclesiastical authorities of Argentina, to the Vatican and to several press representatives, according to two Argentinean daily newspapers.These two newspapers claim that the diffusion of the video precipitated the resignation of the bishop of Santiago del Estero, accepted straight away by the Vatican, and officially announced in Buenos Aires by the apostolic nuncio, the ambassador of the Vatican. In this official statement, the nunciature in Buenos Aires refers to a section of the canonical law which allows for the resignation of a bishop for health reasons or serious problem preventing him from assuming his duty.The spokesperson for the bishop specified that Mgr Maccarone 64 years old, had resigned for health reasons and never admitted having had a homosexual relationship. However, on Monday, the Argentinean press stated that the bishop had apologized to the priests and to the followers in his diocese. The Argentinean Episcopal conference did not made any comment on this case that is shaking the church of this country where a very vast majority of the population is catholic.The Argentinean press evokes a political revenge to explain the diffusion of this video that, according to Clarin, was realized with the complicity of the young man, because of the tense relations between the bishop and the political leaders of Santiago del Estero.

Gay Pride London, 2006: Fatwa of love.

On a hot and sunny Saturday 1st July, London hosted EuroPride and we Raelians were out in force to support the Gay community. Together with Deg and Sean from Ireland, we marched for 3 hours through the streets of London spreading our message of love and acceptance and giving out 2,000 flyers. We also carried placards which read "De-Baptise from your Homophobic Religion!" This proved controversial, but still we received much applause when people spied our signs:-)Thanks to help from the Aussie Raelians, Yvonne and Saul, we were able to design our costumes on theirs and help brighten up an already beautiful day. And what a day! The diversity of the beautiful gay community shone with love, glitter and smiles;-)After the March we gathered at Trafalgar Square where we had a stall complete with "Fatwa of Love" postcards, and beautiful give-away fridge magnets on which a message reminded folks to "Express your Individuality". And that wasn't our only give-away - we had lots of free books - "Yes to Human Cloning" which we gave to gay couples telling them how they too can have a child of their own.So many people worked very hard to make this an enjoyable and successful day. We're already looking forward to a bigger and better event next year........

A Fatwa of Love to 1 million people in Toronto
2006-06-25T22:58:56+00:00

admin@nospam.com
Toronto, June 25, 60(AH) - Men clad in leather chaps, wigs, spike heels, feather boas or simply nothing at all worked the runway in downtown Toronto last Sunday afternoon for the 26th annual Pride Parade.Along the side streets, 1 million people were gathered to watch the 147 flamboyant and ever colorful floats as they cruised down Yonge Street with excitement, laughter and a "joie de vivre" not common on a Sunday > afternoon. The parade was Pride Week's signature event, and offered the most stimulation for the crowds in terms of elaborate costumes, floats and loud music.And to open the parade, we had Toronto Mayor David Miller getting soaked by spectators as he marched with members of Toronto city council. According to him the parade is an important event for the entire city. "We're here to have fun but also we're here to say a very important thing - everyone's welcome in our city, we respect their human rights, we respect people's life choices."And us Raelians we did have something to say. That's why 18 of us from Toronto and Montreal got together on that day and proudly marched for more than 2 hours while distributing 5000 postcards of "Fatwa of love". With 2 big posters asking people not to let the Ayatollahs kill homosexuals, we managed to capture people's attention and many of them applauded our action and truly grabbed the postcards from us. We could have definitely distributed a few thousands more. It was such a wonderful diffusion. Many people were touched by our message but mostly by the Raelians' smile and joie de vivre and fun attitude. The atmosphere was incredible! We had so much fun, it was like a huge party, a true fiesta!It was also important for us to remind people that while Canada is a tolerant nation, homosexuals are still oppressed around the world and killed as we speak and we have to continue to fight for gay rights with courage and for freedom. That freedom that we have here in Canada that we can enjoy unfortunately cannot be enjoyed in other countries and could at any time change even here at home.Last Sunday, we were definitely at the right place, at the right time, to defend the rights and freedom of the gays but also for anyone to that the choice and the right to be different and to be loved for his/her differences.Together, we are building the embassy, 1 step at a time, always in the action and supporting our Beloved Prophet in his incredible mission to save us and we do it with harmony, love and consciousness. Thank you Prophet, thank you Elohim for your unconditional love and for this wonderful message of hope that you gave us. I love you Prophet. I love you ElohimAll my love to those who dare to be!

Gay Pride Bruxelles, 2006: Fatwa of love.
2006-05-08T00:08:46+00:00

admin@nospam.com
10 of us gathered in the center of Brussels around 1:30 pm for a gay and happy afternoon,“You’ll be able to see it with the pictures added to this summary”, although it was a little cool, in order to distribute our wonderful cards. Coming from the north the three Cht’is (as they call themselves), Francis, Pierre and Regis, in a Belgian corner. DD, Regnier Chris and I, Marie-Madeleine, came a little later, and Nathaniel and his friend. We were a little group, but we nevertheless able, thanks to the tool of the day, to get a certain number of contacts, because out of the 3300 Fatwa of Love cards that we had available, we were able to “place” between 1300 and 1400, and only a few of them ended up on the street after having been read. In order to do that, we split into 2 groups and walked for a while beside the floats, where we could distribute many cards to the curious people who came to admire the procession. Some floats were very amusing, even very sensual, with very attractive young men and women on them doing some sensual scenes and dances.The welcome was rather warm, the few people with whom we were able to talk, outside of all the noise of circumstances, agreed with us when we could give them a few words of explanation. The words that really hooked people were: “A couple of minutes reading to save the world. When the person was hooked and we could see it on their face with their: “What are they talking about?” then a shortexplanation came: “yes, change the world, by replacing hatred for love, by answering to hatred by love”. Francis’ testimony: To this person, who was younger than me… not really so young, but whose face and clothes didn’t try to hide her job… the “oldest job in the world” I continue, by saying: “this man (and I point to the Ayatollah on the card) wants all the homosexuals killed, in the worst possible manner, so we tell him: “we must be incredibly sad to be so mean, so we send you, from all corners of the world, a lot of love to compensate for what you never received”. And this brave streetwalker answered: “Well, give me that card, I will send it, too” But the most beautiful thing I heard during this diffusion up to that day was this: I had been on the same corner of sidewalk for about 45 minutes, I had the pleasure to see 3 boys (they looked like students and they seemed more homo than hetero) come back. They let me finish my chat with another person and then one of them showed me the cards I had given him earlier and said: “Could you give me severalmore? We are part of a group of 25 guys and we’d like to give one to each one of them, maybe more if you agree” I don’t have to tell you how much I agreed with them, of course, but what pleased me the most is to tell you what one of them said as they left: “It’s a good thing that you are here!” What a wonderful reward it was! Later on, the group ended up in the gay village. The ambiance in the village was warm, as we cold even feel love that emanated from the people around there. We continued our distribution. Many people had heard about the Ayatollah al-sistani and his Fawta against homosexuals and found our action remarkable.Entire groups asked for our cards, sometimes 10 or 20 at a time. A man who had received the card from Marie-Madeleine was wiggling in the crowd and he tenderly kissed us all when we passed in front of him, his eyes shining with happiness. It was so good… like a bath of love. It is amusing and pleasant to see the welcome that we get every year in the gay community during the Gay Pride day, while the associations that are supposed to defenc the rights of the sexual minorities in Belgium refuses us the right to participate in the parade with a float, every year. Perhaps they are afraid of the success we might have! After our happy diffusion, we went to get one last drink in a café nearby, before leaving at about 6:30pm, satisfied with our sensual and happy afternoon. We shared the rest of the cards between the north and Belgium so that the actions can continue in regions in the coming weeks. All those who couldn’t participate in this fabulous day will be able to join us more actions to take place in the weeks to come.For Aramis Belgium, Cathy Cambresy

The streets of San Francisco were once again lined with hundreds of thousands of people for the 36th Annual Gay Pride Parade, with "extraordinary energy, diversity, and sense of community," according to San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom.The Pride culminated a week long diffusion campaign with the Fatwa of Love postcards at numerous gay and diverse events, including Opening Ceremony at which I had the privilege to present Mayor Newsom with both a postcard and a flier in which our Beloved Prophet asks that he makes San Francisco an independent gay state and creates the first Gay and Lesbian University.Many colorful people and equally colorful and exciting activities provided venue for an exciting and powerful week-long diffusion and fun video opportunities showcasing Pride 2006. Eight members of the San Francisco team distributed more than 3000 postcards to a very warm and receptive crowd, many already recognizing the meaning of "fatwa" and still many more appreciating the powerful impact this campaign will have in Iraq and beyond to end hate crimes and crimes against our gay brothers and sisters.Our Fatwa of Love campaign will continue through October as we find more and more opportunities to share the power of this action and, through it, the magnificence of the Elohim's message promoting love and diversity. Thank you so much dear Beloved Prophet for guiding us in this beautiful revolution. We love you!!!

What an amazing day. Here in Chicago we went out diffusing at the Gay Pride Parade, four dedicated Peace Warriors with our Prophet's beautiful Fatwa Of Love postcard, which sends our love not only to all the gay people in the world, but also to their persecutors, because obviously they need love too,or they wouldn't be persecuting. Alfredo, Eduardo, Peter, Sarah, and I Went out into the streets where there must've been - I don't know - half a million people? And we passed out Love postcards all day long, we passed out thousands, and we got incredible responses. We even filmed an interview with a representative of Amnesty International who absolutely loved the work (play! ) we were doing and said so on camera. (Look for her (and us!) on RaelTV soon!) She was so moved by the Fatwa of Love that she ended up hugging us all, and it was a moment that we really appreciated the beautiful work (play!) we are doing on this planet, spreading Love and the Freedom To be who we are. And to make the experience even better, our Raelian Brothers and sisters at the Gay Pride parades in Toronto and San Francisco were waging their love-actions at the same time, so we felt really connected to the whole continent. The Gay Pride parades are such fabulous places to be because there are so many people being who they really are freely without inhibition or fears of judgement, and having so much FUN doing it! I wish the whole planet was like this!Thank you dear Prophet for bringing me this beautiful hope.And I wish to share one other moment, that moment just before beginning Our playing, when, surrounded by the milling crowd, we all stopped, Eduardo, Alfredo, Peter, Sarah, and I, and we held hands, and we gave our thanks to our Creators for giving us the opportunity to see the potential that humanity has, the beauty and the richness. Thank you, Elohim. We love you.

Sydney Mardi Gras 2006

There was a great sense of change in the air this year at the Sydney Gay and Lesbian New Mardi Gras. The crowd kept building along Oxford Street from early in the afternoon. By evening there was close to half a million people at the various vantage points along the Parade route.Over the months leading up to the Parade there have been many sobering issues to deal with. A lot of these have their roots in the distant past and a lot are to do with sexuality and religion. Big changes are taking place in the world regarding sexuality and religion.For example the cartoons of Mohammed have caused an international reaction. As well as those Same Sex Unions have very much been on the agenda. Congratulations UK. Many other matters concerning Gay Rights have been publicly discussed. Not least of which is the Vatican’s ridiculous edict banning gay men from becoming priests and the ‘witch hunts’ Benedict XVI has unleashed on Catholic Seminaries throughout the world to interrogate seminarians in respect to their sexual preferences.The Raelian Movement is always thinking ahead in respect to these matters and working towards a better world for all. Oceania prepared a full-frontal assault on the oppressive attitudes of traditional religion and promoted a strong message at this year's Parade following on from the success of last year.The theme of our float was ‘Debaptism”. “Religions Created Homophobia - Debaptize Now”. Our signs read, “Homosexuality IS Natural. Homophobia is NOT Natural”. “UFO Brings Love”, “The Myth of God is Over”, “Debaptise Yourself”. All signs had the raeliangay.org website underneath.Our float featured a large cartoon of Pope Benedict XVI, in light of those of Mohammed. (see images).There has been an even greater reception to the Raelian float this year. It has been a hardwon respect. New Mardi Gras was concerned about our anti-religious theme and wanted to censor our message. We were able to successfully argue that our message is crucial, especially to young gay people, many of whom consider suicide because they can’t see a loving future for themselves in a world full of hateful religious dogma.Most of the commentators along the route were aware of the Raelians as a UFO and revolutionary Movement. They announced our website, as being especially created for gay, lesbian, bi-sexual, transgender, queer Raelians. The commenatators were aware that we expect to meet with people from another planet. They also congratulated us on taking on religion. One commentator said over the loudspeaker, "Yes how dare religion tell us not to use condoms."Vanessa Wagner, Sydney drag queen, seemed stunned by Pope Alice’s audacity to have acolytes in Muslim headscarves and bare breasts. Bob Downe, Australian celebrity, was ‘titilated by it all. William Yang filmed us for his extraordinary archive of gay life in Sydney, which stretches back thirty years or more. There were many photographers and we also had our own. Tony Lee, area manager for Sydney, documents most Raelian events in Australia and Alcy Infinity, Raelian extraordinaire also captured us on video. One cameraman was collecting more footage for an upcoming documentary on Pope Alice."Pope Alice Loves You to Life" was the message held high behind Her Divine Holiness Pope Alice. Her outfit especially caused a sensation. She led the way wearing a bishop’s mitre and rows of breasts like the Roman goddess Artemis. The large fuschia pink cope billowed in the cooloing breeze of the evening. It was held each side by two Raelian women (Rhanda and Anna) who wore Muslim-style headscarve and little else. Their breast were exposed. This was an awesome and magnificent gesture.The two women caused an orgasmic enthusiasm in the crowd, who felt liberated by the daring attire and snubbing of religious restrictions. The crowd were thrilled that finally someone was tusing humour in the headscarf dilemma. Many, many people felt that this was such a great way of dealing with the building pressure from Islam to conform to medieval opressions.Pope Alice added to the joy of the crowd by flashing them, as she did last year, with the huge phallus concealed beneath her cascading breasts."Now that’s genetic engineering gone wild." said one wily onlooker.We were so uplifted by the Parade, which lasted for about two and a half hours up Oxford Street into Flinders Street down to the Sowgrounds. We were buzzing with energy at the end of it. Our float took about an hour to go the length of the Parade route.This year the big Mardi Gras Party was sold out, which is a good sign that New Mardi Gras is recovering from its lull. Sixteen thousand people bought tickets for the party.The Raelian contribution of some gutsy politics has also contributed to the revitalisation of this significant event.Many of the hardcore Mardi Gras goers thought our float was very courageous and highly relevant and topical. They also thought Pope Alice and her assistants were very brave and the costumes witty. This is high praise indeed from a tough section of the Sydney community.We are lucky nonetheless to live in a country where it is still possible to express oneself freely and to make public comment about primitive and ignorant aspect of outdated religions. It is vitally important to maintain our freedom of expression in the West and not have it eroded. As Our Beloved Prophet Rael says, "We must prevent a return to the Middle Ages".On the day of the Parade we heard that Rael’s visa to Australia was finally approved. This was fantastic news for us here in Oceania, who were eagerly awaiting the presence of Our Beloved Prophet in our hemisphere for the first time in eight years.Long live the Elohim.Lots of LoveLuke

San Francisco Gay Pride 2005

Last week end was gay pride week end in many places.... of course we couldn’t miss the one of San Francisco, J The regional guide, Felix Clairvoyant tells us :As Raelians in San Francisco gathered to commemorate the Stonewall uprising of 1969, what is widely believed to be the beginning of the gay rights movement, for the first time, the Raelian Movement entered a contingency in the SF Gay Pride Parade, masterfully orchestrated by Craig Fuller with directives from Fabrice and where more than a million people gathered.Together, Craig and I carried a beautifully designed banner bearing the word ARAMIS - Raelian Association for Sexual Minorities and we were joined by ten family members from around the Bay area dressed completely in white and wearing beautiful butterfly and angel wings. We distributed 2000 fliers to a very receptive crowd. Hundreds of thousands of people were reported to have lined the parade route, many cheering as we passed and offering thumbs up and nods of approval for our additional posters, “Gay Rights = Human Rights,” “Sexual Orientation = 100% genetic,” “California = 1st Gay Country,” and “A Message from the Designers.” Those of us handing out fliers were pleased at how many reached for a flier, even from back rows, asking for fliers, or even, “Are you Raelian?” and smiling.Even though our contingency was located near the end of the parade gathering, the crowds remained strong until the final contingency passed. And we were equally pleased to be flanked before and after by members of the Green Party and the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) respectively. The contingency leader for the ACLU graciously asked us if we had powerful Raelian statements so he could chant them using his megaphone. So frequently throughout the march he would say: “Raelians say “gay rights = human rights” followed by: “Raelian priest will marry you.” or “Raelians, make some noise.” JFrom the Parade’s opening contingency to the rear of the lineup, the spirit and sentiment could be felt throughout the crowd, gender equality and human rights for all. This was a tremendous experience for all of us, a joy to be able to share the hope of our Creators in a loving and accepting atmosphere. The climate of acceptance continues to change, demonstrating our need to stay focused on the mission entrusted to our Beloved Prophet.
