Can Raelians Belong to Other Religions?
Question: Can Raelians Belong to Other Religions?
Answer:

Generally no. Formal membership in the Raelian Movement, which is distinctly atheistic, includes the Act of Apostasy, in which the new Raelian denounces their previous faith and requests their previous religious organization to strike their name from membership lists.

It is unclear whether this is required of people following non-theistic or atheistic faiths (such as Buddhism or some forms of Satanism), particularly those without formal membership lists.
