Israel

Organizers of a sex fest to mark International Orgasm Day were forced to cancel the event after public pressure became too intense, reports Ynetnews. The sex fest, to be the largest of its kind in Israel, was meant to promote world peace, the article states.

The orgy was organized by the Raelian movement, a UFO religion whose followers believe humankind was created by aliens. The group's spokesman, Kobi Drori, said that the orgy was meant to include straights, gays, lesbians and bisexuals, all of them over 18.


"The purpose of the event was to try and bring world peace through mass orgasm, this by experiencing consensual sex and natural, uninterrupted pleasure. It was important to make love without feeling guilty or shy," he explained.

The Raelian website provides information on the group behind the sex fest.


The Raelian Revolution is boldly bringing about a complete paradigm shift on our planet. The Messages given to Rael by our human Creators from space contain the world's most fearlessly individualistic philosophy of love, peace, and non-conformism: a beautiful combination of spirituality, sensuality, and science.

You can also check out this website dedicated to Global Orgasms. It states that December 21 was the third annual Global Orgasm Day.

WHO? All Men and Women, you and everyone you know.


WHERE? Everywhere in the world, but especially in countries with weapons of mass destruction and places where violence is used in place of mediation.

I'd like a raelian to explain why their biggest PR moves always involve sex one way or another. What's up with that? I know everybody's trying to bring more people into their groups but still...they have nothing else to use for exposure?

During the Vietnam war some priests complained that had the USA sent a B52 with condoms to dropped off to North Vietnam the church would have been outraged but so long as the B52 were only killing people the church saw no reason to comment or object. This is the most scary coment about human religion and so dead on that I can only cry.

I propose an alternative idea to promote world peace:

How about if all the people in the world who cannot get along with others stop having sex?

I understand the short term weaknesses in this proposal.

I'm trying to come up with a long term solution.

At least it was an inclusive event. If it was organized by the American porn industry, it would have included heterosexuals, "hot lesbians" and "hot bi babes". No gay or bisexual men would have been allowed unless they were segregated and marginalized from the others.

What is funny about that, is the number of gay for pay "straight" actors who cross over to mainstream porn. Oh the hypocrisy of the straight porn industry

You know. I think we need to move Global Orgasm Day to August.. August has no holidays and Global Orgasm Day strikes me as a summer outdoorsy kind of thing. You know: at the beach or a lake in the Mountains.

In any case, a Formidable Festivus to all and to a good snog.

Okie-dokie. You might like to have your mass orgy sponsored by a relatively sane religious group, say the Scientologists or Warren's Saddleback Church. The Raelians are sort of a mixture of Mormonism, atheism, science fictionism (or Scientology, take your pick). They are sternly against suicide except when it's ordered by the Church as a means of meeting the Mothership. These folks have devised an atheology part of which has been described as intelligent design for atheists. Ponder that. If you imbibed so much that this sounds reasonable, ( http://www.cephasministry.com/ufos_raelians_philosophy.html ) meet Elohim and Rael. Just remembers that these are the folks that gave "knocking on Heaven's Gate" the sinister twist. Keep you running shoes handy. They like to do the "Children of the Damned" thing, just like theMoonies, to sweep new recruits into the waiting arms of Elohim.

These people are scary, I still remember their ridiculous broadcast on public tv in Montreal in the 80s.

i actually think these guys got a point .... life on earth was probably "manufactured" from outside... i read somewhere in my biology class that we humans body needs a particular mineral/metal for an enzyme that could have easily been another metal which is more abundant ... Francis Crick supported it

Although what you are saying sounds insane, it is entirely possible. Meteors have been striking earth since its creation, bringing with them all kinds of comsic goodies...sort of like Santa

"It was important to make love without feeling guilty or shy"

And then they cancel due to public pressure? Way to take a stand!

Well lets see... Israel. Friday is Shabat. Saturday is the Muslim day of prayer. Sunday is holy to Christian. That leaves, Monday through Thursday to do something like this and not risk offending some religious kook. Right. Mid-week great time to hold a festival. !5 years ago my vehicle was stoned in Jerusalem because *gasp* I drove on Friday evening on a public street through a Hasidic neighborhood (like I knew it was Hasidic. Israel is a lovely country but sadly it is full of religious fanatics and collectively we could only hope they would all eliminate each other (no such luck).

Now that they've gotten all this free publicity, perhaps they'll reschedule and send out invites to everyone in the world next time.

After all the free publicity, perhaps, they'll decide to schedule another mass suicide.

Ridiculous.

'curing' one evil, while promoting another?

A mass orgasm to promote peace, bs.
They're promoting loose, casual sex - and everything that comes with it.
