Raelians Disrobe to Protest Iraq War
OK, guys, the naked anti-war protest shtick has been done, redone, and frankly overdone. Isn't it time to show some originality?
The women who shed their clothes Saturday were followers of the Raelian sect, who believe life on Earth was created by space aliens. In December, Clonaid, a group started by the Raelians, claimed to have produced the first human clone. But the group has failed to produce the child for DNA testing.
Four members of the group stood on the grounds of the federal building, disrobed for several minutes, and encouraged others to do the same as a sign of their opposition to war.
"Whenever everybody undresses, the ego goes away and then we can make decisions," said protester Nadine Gary. "Imagine President Bush nude addressing the state of the union. Imagine Saddam Hussein nude."
Thanks, but I'd rather not have to think about Shrub or Saddam in the altogether. Ewww....
