"The Raelians have championed some strange causes in the movement's 25-year history, including aliens and human clones, but now they are going to bat for a body part -- the clitoris.
The cult's leader, Rael, whose real name is Claude Vorilhon, has become outraged by the custom of female genital cutting, the primarily African practice in which part of a girl's genitalia is sliced away.
Now the Raelian Movement has resolved to build a hospital in the West African country of Burkina Faso, where women could come to have their clitorises "reconstructed.""
On thier board of doctors included is Dr Marci Bowers of Colorado.
Go for Raelians!

Wow, good for them. And good for Dr. Bowers for donating her time.

Female Genital Mutilation is an outdated practice that is only practiced in certain regions of the World. In many countries this practice is now illegal.
Anyone who offers to help these poor women deserves praise.
