Season 1 (2025) ✨
🚀 Episode 29 of the Vale & Mark Podcast 🚀
(Ancient Trails Part 7)
🔥 Did Ancient Humans REALLY Meet Aliens? 🔥
🔥 Raël, the Raelians, and the Synarchs of the Codex 🔥
What if humanity’s origin story isn’t ancient myth, but modern revelation?
In this episode, Vale and Mark examine Raëlism, one of the most controversial and technologically framed belief systems of the modern era. A movement that claims humanity was not created by gods or nature alone, but by an advanced extraterrestrial civilization known as the Elohim.
We explore Raël’s assertion that ancient religious texts were misunderstood records of contact, that prophets were intermediaries, and that religion itself exists as a preparatory system for humanity’s eventual reunion with its creators. At the center of this worldview sits the Synarchs of the Codex of the Quantum Heralds, a governing intelligence structure said to safeguard probabilistic knowledge, continuity, and cosmic order.
Rather than treating Raëlism as spectacle, we approach it as a case study in tech-forward belief. A religion born not from the distant past, but from the space age. One that replaces mysticism with genetics, divinity with science, and faith with preparation.
Because if advanced beings returned today, would we call them gods
…or just engineers with better tools?
