Talk:Clonaid
There's some uncertainty over the connections between the Raelians and Clonaid. Some reports say there are "philosophical" connections, but not direct financial or organizational links.
The sentence, "They claim that aliens taught them how to perform cloning, even though the company has no record of having successfully cloned any previous animal." seems a POV comment to me which attempts to discredit their claim with no counter evidence. If aliens had taught me to clone humans, I would expect them to do just that. If my alien friends had to walk me though lab rats first I would be less impressed with their technological superiority. I personally think UFOs are the modern era manifestation of the same phenomena that in the past was understood to be sightings of demons, in other words, it is attributable to intracranial rather than extraterrestrial events. However, I do not think we should make the article too demeaning of the views of the Raelians. --Qaz
- So Qaz, how doe we address the situation that they haven't successfully cloned anything? -- Zoe
- "They claim that aliens taught them how to perform cloning. They have not however produced any verifiable evidence (DNA tests with samples taken under supervision for example) of having achieved the feat." This is one way you could express it that states just as strongly that there is no evidence but does not seem to talk down to the sect or whatever they call themselves. --Qaz
The outline of the 'whole body transplant' objectives of the Raelians is now neither in this article nor the one on the Raelians. It belongs in one or the other.
