Web: Run out of town on a Rael?

I know what you're thinking: "Whatever happened to those Raelians?"

The bizarre, quasi-scientific movement believes in extraterrestrials and that an alien leader, Yahweh, visited Earth in a UFO. They're also known for their free sexual lifestyle and for triggering a flurry of media attention in 2004 when the group's leader, Rael, claimed to have cloned the first human.

In January they reinstated the combination Star of David/Swastika as their official symbol. After that public relations coup, they decided to sell their Quebec headquarters, world embassy and theme park called UFOLand. It features campgrounds, lakes, an amphitheatre, offices and a condominium building in the shape of a spaceship. Price: $2.95 million.

The bad news--they're all moving to America.

And the good news? None... unless the Scientologists buy the place and they all move to Canada.
