I am happy to see the fruit of your work Mr. Katzen. Having purchased my copy in early seventies and being witness to what you present is righteous. I enjoyed seeing your presentation @ U. of Montana
good presentation of my favorite book and greatest source of information i've encountered,this book has caused me to rethink all that i knew...and exchange my former mis-information for truth
I first began reading the Urantia Book over 30 years ago. I learned then, and I know now, that my relationship with my creator is personal and requires no religion, no priest, and no temple. I also learned that it is not where I am , nor where I came from, but where I am headed that really counts! Ralph Waldo Emerson put it best when he wrote, ""What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us".
Halbert (who after becoming an attorney, sold everything he owned 2 years ago and devoted his life to introducing the proofs of the Urantia book) is doing a great job again here in bringing to light the credibility of the Urantia book. He presents a clear picture of the Urantia books increasing credibility and yearly worldwide increase of readers. So many people's lives have been greatly improved by reading the Urantia book, and it greatly intriques even the atheists and their belief in no God.
According to the Urantia book, religion is a person matter between the first source and center and themselves, this is in contrast to the term's popular use today. The term "Religion" in popular toung means an orginized group of people with shared beliefs. The Urantia deals in truths and not beliefs. This is one of many troubles of biased perception when it comes to translation of understanding in accordance with terms. That's part of the confusion.
It has been my findings that when dealing with the Urantia papers one should pay special attention to a words Etymology rather then popular understanding of the terms usage.
So true! Belief limits... faith liberates ;-) Religious experience needs to be ever growing and alive. Many people are constantly putting themselves in a box of understanding and do not dare to step outside their comfort zone. The Urantia Book challenges people to widen their preconceptions of reality in all aspects. The truth unravels like an onion, revealing layer upon layer as understanding grows. It takes true courage to leave one's comfort zone, but the rewards are endless.
The Urantia Book will replace christianity and Islam in the future. It is the future!
