Clitoraid is the organization whose director, Nadine Gary, contacted me first in January of 2007 about learning the FGM Reversal technique from Dr. Pierre Foldes. 3 months later, I was in Paris, honored to be learning this technique from this incredible physician. Only later did I come to find that more than 25 gynecologists from across the US turned down Ms. Gary’s plea to help FGM victims. Some of this resistance, I suspect, was due to Clitoraid’s inception as a result of direction by Raelian founders including Rael himself. Neither myself nor Dr. Foldes are Raelian. Whether I agree or disagree with claims and ideals of Raelianism is immaterial to the importance and benevolence of this project. Furthermore, if this campaign against FGM and the push to restore clitoral function were promoted by the Catholic church or by Judaism, the project would be lauded and deified for its obvious good. That the Raelians had the foresight and initiative to launch this incredibly worthwhile project is a credit to their beliefs but not a wholesale endorsement of the religion itself. The ends justify the means. Rael deserves enormous respect as religious freedom in whatever form is entitled.
