Lot? he didn't exactly pray for the city..... and he had limited success..... but the Lord did entertain saving the majority for the minority.... ( like a vulcan... ).... doesn't that sort of set a precedent??

Rev, I remain convinced of so very little it is truly crippling at times.... but certain things i read sort of echo in my head, and merge with things Ive picked up otherwheres, and i see connections and explanations.... I try to disregard terminology and look inwards at the meat of what i study, and the more i learn, the less finnicky I am about sources. Upon serious study, the frivolous fades away. My inner witness says there are gems hidden in this long, dry text. The terms used do not resonate. It is completely unlike anything else i have read. It feels awkward and broken in its rhythm. Bu

If you find you can't sleep, have to take a several day bus ride, or get snowed in for a week or so, let me know ..... It really IS hard to stick to.... generally those I've met who are into the book are dedicated... Fawzo if you wanna look for specific sections which might interest you, skipping around, thats how most approach the book... check out paper 111, papers 53 and 67 purportedly explain the different rebellions - Lucifer and Caligasta, and the section beginning with paper 86 are interesting to me.... actually much of it is interesting to me..... The concept of the Thought Adjuster i

Took me quite a while to get through a lot of it, but I found the whole cosmology in the fist two parts interesting. Specifically where it starts getting closer to the indiviual, and the purpose and details of being human... the detail of this book is jaw dropping in its scope.... sure would like some opinions... I was looking for folks who have spent time with the study of the book. I have met folks in the past who were devoted to the book, and never was able to chat with them about it... Truly it's not as if I expect folks to study a few thousand pages just to chat...

ditto... , hope lots take the time to read... eloquently said....

Has anyone read the Urantia Book? There's a lot of good discussion about the ancient texts that go on here, I was wondering if anyone would like to discuss thoughts they may have about this book, printed approx. 1955. here's the Urantia Book Fellowship page: Urantia book fellowship there's a lot out there about the Urantia Book so i won't do a big description here, Just want some thoughts from the folks here...

my older brother died a few years ago from diabetes. He dealt with severe neuropathy.. the pain and tingling you feel when a body part goes to sleep and "awakens".... I don't know your situation, but i used to find him marijuana, and make him bites to eat cooked with cannabutter.... the relief he felt was enough to allow him the peace to come to terms with dying and whether he was ready to believe in God. I don't know your situation, but I risked my freedom and future because it was WORTH it.... I would watch my brother go from a fetal position in agony, slowly unwind, and gradually sit up and

for further clarification of the world early christians lived in - and a very interesting chronology of the papel throne from the reign of Marozia ( the model for the fable of "pope Joan" - the only woman to ever have control of the supreme sacredotal office )in 926 as Senatrix of Rome, all the way to the sack of Rome and the death of Clement VII in 1534. Fascinating, fascinating,fascinating stuff.... the bibliography of this book is flat-out drool inspiring... check out: The Bad Popes by E.R. Chamberlin guarantee it will inform and definitely entertain you.....

I know it's judgmental of me.... however, I question the motives of any who wish to hide away from the world to study "religious" topics. To me it seems a blatant warning flag. The reasons for a monestary, in my mind, have long since faded with history. We are in no need of a stronghold for religious knowledge.... the pagans at the gate have opened McDonalds and sent their kids to local schools...... Personally I feel that the message for modern Christians ( and what a broad label THAT is ) is to be in and amongst the world holding the proper mindset and disposition or you are peddling with a

thank you for this look into your mind Rev. Rainbow.... beautiful tragedy.... the essence of being human.... You are an admirable soul.....

My prayers are for the speedy recovery of rabbiO. I nod my head to another traveller on this road and send my Love for his greatest wellbeing...

here's a metaphysical perspective : everything that exists is in motion - even if it is strictly at the atomic scale. This motion gives it a vibration ( along with it's individual characteristics ). This vibration is indicitive of where it resides on the scale of creation. The soul has a vibration of it's own, but when combined with the human body it's vibration is lowered. This scale reaches from the actual presence of our Creator outwards to the uttermost reaches of his consiousness ( which is allowed by his grace - if his children wish to hide from Him, them they have that option.) Or, i

Curiosity brought me here and the folks here have interesting things to say - I'm sticking with it for now......
