It's all about skin

This just in: Raelian leader unplugged.

Constantly surrounded by bodyguards, Claude Vorilhon is convinced he's the target of numerous assassination plots. The prophet known to his followers as Rael wants his disciples to share his paranoia that George Bush and Jacques Chirac themselves want his skin.

Literally, that is... Raelian intelligence reveals President Bush's agenda:

"I want the skin of this Rael who preaches atheism at all costs."

Some of Vorilhon's followers think this is not such a bad idea.

"That would be good if one day Rael was killed or died," says Pierre Bolduc, a friend of Rael's since his arrival in Quebec 25 years ago. "Because if he died, there wouldn't be any further chance that one day he would deny all that he's taught the last 20 years -- his meeting with the Elohims and all that. Jesus wasn't crucified for nothing!" he says.
