abstract note"Raël's own writings, particularly Intelligent Design as the compendium of his three most important books, thus claim the status of scripture in their own right. The strategy of claiming to encompass and surpass all previous revelations is familiar from how the Christian scriptures appropriate and turn to their own purposes the Hebrew Bible, how the Qur'an in turn claims to absorb and express even more clearly the Torah and the Gospel, and how the Baha'i scriptures strive to incorporate all previous revelations."
