RAEL'S COMMENT: The fact of the matter is that there is nothing to
pardon. The only one who should ask to be pardoned is Obama.
WARNING FROM RAEL: For
those who don't use their intelligence at its full capacity,
the label "selected by RAEL" on some articles does not mean
that�I agree with their content or support it. "Selected by
RAEL" means that I believe it is important for the�people of
this planet to know about what people think or do, even when
what they think or do is completely stupid and against our
philosophy. When I selected articles in the past about stupid
Christian fundamentalists in America praying for rain, I�am
sure no Rael-Science reader was stupid enough to believe that
I was supporting praying to change the weather. So, when I
select articles which are in favor of drugs, anti-semitic,
anti-Jewish, racist, revisionist, or inciting hatred against
any group or religion,�or any other stupid article, it does
not mean that I support them. It just means that it is
important for all human beings to know about them. Common
sense, which is usually very good among our readers, is good
enough to understand that. When, like in the recent articles
on drug decriminalization, it is necessary to make it clearer,
I add a comment, which in this case was very clear: I support
decriminalizing all drugs, as it is stupid to throw depressed
and sad people (as only depressed and sad people use drugs) in
prison and ruin their life with a criminal record. That does
not mean that there is any change to the Message which says
clearly that we must not use any drug except for medical
purposes. The same applies to the freedom of expression which
must be absolute. That does not mean again of course that I
agree with anti-Jews, antisemites, racists of any kind or
anti-Raelians. But by knowing your enemies or the enemies of
your values, you are better equipped to fight them. With love
and respect of course, and with the wonderful sentence of the
French philosopher Voltaire in mind: "I disapprove of what you
say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it".
