The position of the Raelian Movement is clear : there should never be any exception to non-violence.
RAEL declared today: "If somebody tells you that by killing or torturing one person it would save all humanity, don't do it." Absolute non violence is the only way to save humanity. We must never forget that before 6 million jews were killed, there was a first one. If it is allowed to have a first, in the name of any "exception" there is no limit then. "
