Nope, I'm one of these This seems very similar to the Platonic Ascent. Are you familiar with it? From what I can tell, it seems like the Urantia Book has this improvement through meditation which causes one to be "closer" to God. Although, it seems like you have different words for it like...

Some of us are required by our jobs.

Still not answering what we should be doing. "living in accordance with the will of God" is a bit too vague. Please expand on this. For example, a Muslim lives according to the will of God by slamming a jumbo jet into a crowded building. I don't think this is what you mean, but I'd rather not...

Generally, this started with Obama. Anyone who criticized Obama was labelled a racist. When Trump started to run for office, anyone who supported him was called a racist despite the fact that NBC had him on Primetime for over 10 years straight before that. He opposed Clinton, so suddenly him...

Yep, the CCP is our enemy.

Use South Korean KF94 masks. They are designed reduce the amount of carbon dioxide.

That's a how - not a why. This quote makes it abundantly clear that the why or reason why is not known. According to Urantia we are so insignificant, we are only allowed a "glimpse" into the "Father's" purposes only now and then. Now that we have gone over the beginning, let's move to the...

So, let me be clear. You believe the Urantia Book says that there is no known reason for why we were created. The origin story is a form of theistic evolution. Correct me if I am wrong.

Sure. Let's start with the beginning. Why were we made? Or, why do we exist?

Yep, that’s Platonism. I read enough to realize the Platonistic origins before you did. Have you really read the book. The fact that you’re still following it tells me that is unlikely. And people argue about the Bible all the the time before reading it.

What scientific evidence caused you to believe this? Can you explain it yourself? Or are you trusting what someone else tells you?

You seem to have forgotten that you asked a question. In fact, you used three question marks, so you really wanted it answered. So the content I added to the thread was an answer to your question. If you are upset with the answer, perhaps you should repent of asking the question. I believe...

No, no, no . . . You misunderstood. Calvinism has nothing to do with the Jesus, the God of Abraham, Moses nor the rest of the Bible. That's why it has a lot more in common the Urantia book which also has nothing to do with the Bible.

Actually, I see more similarities between Calvinism and the Urantia book than Calvinism and the Bible.

The popular vote is completely and utterly irrelevant. Why would you even mention it?

Came about through a parliamentary system. Rape of Nanking >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Nice Japanese separation camps - not even comparable. Rape of Nanking = another end result of a parliamentary system. Forced on the Americas by the Parliamentary system of England. Also, removed by our...

Really worked in the Parliamentary systems of Germany, Italy, France, Pakistan, etc. Parliaments don't protect "minorities" unless those minorities are a part of the "coalition" government. Parliaments are relatively effective in small countries where there are very few minority populations...

I realized no one had answered your question. At the very beginning of the U.S., the states divided its electors. However, states started to realize that if they had all their electors vote one way, they would have greater importance in the choice of the a President. If they divided their...

There is a difference between people having no issue with homosexuality and people not expressing an issue with homosexuality. Most people will not express an issue with homosexuality because they will be attacked, usually financially.

If the Constitution does not say that the Supreme Court has to hear the case, then the Constitution does not require them to. Alito and Thomas didn't say that. They simply said that the bill of complaint should be allowed to be filed. “In my view, we do not have discretion to deny the filing...
