 Urantia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Urantia Book states that Jesus' crucifixion was not an atonement for the sins of humanity...instead his death is described as a human outcome of the fears of the religious authorities of the day.
Critics argue that, despite the claims of the Urantia movement not to be an organized religion, it is a religion and has an organisation.
Urantia is the name sometimes given to the spiritual movement whose principal text is The Urantia Book.

 Religious Movements Homepage: Urantia
Michael, the Son of God and the Son of Man (otherwise known as Jesus of Nazareth), is the sovereign of Urantia's local universe.
The Urantia Foundation claims the book is used as a spiritual guide by many different religions.
Urantia is based completely on The Urantia Book which does not require readers to join a certain church or adhere to certain standards.

 Identifying and Dealing with Cults:  Urantia
The Jesus of the Urantia book is not the same Jesus of the Bible.
But in reality, the Urantia book is in direct conflict with the Bible on many important doctrines, including the most important one which is the issue of salvation from eternal damnation in Hell through faith in Jesus Christ.
The Urantia Book portrays the Bible as a flawed book that is in need of correction by the Urantia book.

Urantia Book From their web page: "It tells about Deity, the organization and administration of universes and the relation of the planet on which we live to the universe, of the genesis and destiny of man and his relation to God, and of the teachings of Jesus Christ.
Adnon The Urantia Book says this Chaldean head priest was told by the angels that Jesus Christ was coming.
Per the Urantia book, it is administered by Christ Michael (aka Jesus Christ) and is the central shrine of Nebadon.

 Urantia
The Urantia can be classified as a cult largely due to their ex-biblical revelation and the fact that according to their teachings, the Lord Jesus Christ is considered a created spirit being, rather than the preexistent, second person of the Trinity, God the Son.
Urantia is one of many esoteric New Age religious efforts to create spirituality within the context of the philosophic naturalism and modernism that pervades Western culture.
Arianism (Arius) - was a movement in the early church that believed God the Father alone was God, and that Jesus was a created being.

 Urantia Namesake
The question of the meaning of Urantia can be addressed in terms of Earth languages, which came after it, or the celestial language of which it is a part.
Similarly, the initial--and perhaps the terminal--a in Urantia would be pronounced with an ah sound, as in the final a in garage.
One might suspect that the v in Orvonton has become silent over time to produce Urantia; but both Orvonton and Urantia are revealed celestial words, probably not subject--or as subject--in their celestial habitat to such evolution.

 The Urantia Book: On-line Text
Urantia mortals should not allow the comparative spiritual isolation of their world from certain of the local universe circuits to produce a feeling of cosmic desertion or planetary orphanage.
They will no doubt continue to serve in their present capacities until some change in planetary status ensues, such as the end of a dispensation, the assumption of full authority by Machiventa Melchizedek, the final adjudication of the Lucifer rebellion, or the reappearance of Michael on the world of his final bestowal.
In a crisis the actual and sovereign head of the government, excepting in certain purely spiritual matters, would be this Vorondadek Son of Edentia now on observation duty.

 The Watchman Expositor: The URANTIA Book Profile
God the Father: The URANTIA Book teaches, "The Universal Father is the God of all creation, the First Source and the Center of all things and beings.
Part IV of The URANTIA Book ostensibly covers, in addition to its elaboration of the gospel accounts, a record of the "lost years" of Jesus' life.
After the crucifixion, Jesus underwent "the Morontia Transit," in which the resurrected morontia form and personality of Jesus [i.e., the spirit of Jesus without the physical body] went forth from the tomb and met with Gabriel and other celestial administrators.

 Urantia Book
The UB also reveals that the "Universe is literally teeming with inhabited planets, evolving life, civilizations in various states of development, celestial spheres, and spirit personalities." In short, the UB is over 2,000 pages of "revelations" from superhuman beings which "correct" the errors and omissions of the Bible.
Ernest Moyer, for example, believes that the UB is a revelation from God that appeared "out of thin air" in fully developed form, exactly as we know it today.

 International Urantia Association Overview
If Christianity persists in neglecting its spiritual mission while it continues to busy itself with social and material problems, the spiritual renaissance must await the coming of these new teachers of Jesus' religion who will be exclusively devoted to the spiritual regeneration of men.
Its focus is to remain on The Urantia Book and its teachings.
The local, informal study group is the place where teamwork is forged and spiritual growth is fostered; it is the primary social and educational arena for disseminating the teachings of The Urantia Book.

 The Urantia Book - Probe Ministries
The Urantia Book proclaims a different God, a different Jesus, and a different Gospel than the Bible.
For example, contrary to the testimony of Jesus in the New Testament--that the Scriptures are the word of God (Matt.
He began reading The Urantia Book, a massive tome of 2,097 pages that was allegedly revealed by celestial beings from higher universes.

 01-6347 -- Michael Foundation Inc. v. Urantia Foundation -- 03/11/2003
In 1950, Urantia Foundation was formed in Illinois as a charitable trust.
Urantia Foundation does not argue that a traditional employment relationship existed between the Contact Commission and the Conduit; rather, it argues that the Contact Commission specially commissioned The Urantia Book from the Conduit.
The Conduit announced these plans on behalf of, or "as," Machiventa Melchizedek, one of the celestial personalities constituting the "Revelatory Commission," to whom Urantia Foundation ultimately attributes the revelations it believes The Urantia Book to embody.

 THE URANTIA BOOK
The book is also used by individuals of many religions, primarily Christian, as a spiritual guide.
The Urantia Book is not a complete religion, like others described in this web site.
Norm DuVal has a "Urantia Foundation Truth Site" at: http://www.freeurantia.org/ Their site is "dedicated to religious freedom, 'unceasing exposure'...of Urantia Foundation's sophistries, and resistance to Urantia Foundation's religious tyranny and persecution against believers of the Urantia Revelation."

Often addresses his children of Urantia with the phrase, “This is your Father/Brother, Michael,” or “This is your Creator and Father, your Brother and Friend.”  Some of the Christian religious sects refer to him as Archangel Michael because of the confusion in not differentiating the Christ from the Eternal Son.

Encourage them to learn that the book has teachings that are more than relevant to their lives and that these teachings will assist them in their struggles to get through these confusing and difficult years.

 Spirit Village Review
The Urantia Book answers many basic questions that human beings ask themselves when they're looking for more spiritual facts and realities in their lives.
The Urantia Book is a revelation of truth, about the Creator and creation, for all of humanity.
In verse, it expresses a philosophy of living that harmonizes logic and intuition, science and religion, Eastern thought and Western thought, existence and non-existence, the material and the spiritual, action and non-action, peace and conflict, stillness and movement, and light and darkness.

 Conspiracy in the Urantia Movement: Overview
Another of her colleagues (though apparently not at the University), who was also co-author with both her and Thetford of scientific papers on MKULTRA's chief psycholigist, John Gittinger's Personality Assessment System (PAS), David Saunders, was also an MKULTRA researcher who was mentioned in John Marks book, "The Search for the Manchurian Candidate".
Interestingly, in 1971 Eileen Caddy’s “voice” was discontinued, and in the Urantia movement that same year Harry McMullan made initial contact between Vern Grimsley’s Family of God Foundation (FOG) and Radio Free Europe (RFE) while in New York.
So we can see from all this that MKULTRA likely bent offbeat religions to its uses from the beginning ("spiritualism" arguably being one).

Gardner traces the cult's beginnings back to its "bible" The Urantia Book, a book supposedly revealed solely by celestial beings to correct the flaws in the traditional Bible.
It differs from earlier channelled "bibles" in that it contains a vast amount of modern science as well as a detailed biography of Jesus Christ, complete with facts not found in the gospels.
Gardner also addresses the extent to which Seventh-Day Adventist beliefs have penetrated the Urantia movement.

 Urantia Book FAQs
There are long time readers of the book that have made it their religion, and there are some churches that use the book in its ministry, but there are no formal religions that call itself Urantia.The book itself maintains that true religion is one's personal relationship with God and discourages creating another "ism".
People from many religions embrace the teachings in the book and still remain in good standing in their denomination, often supporting their traditional faiths through insights gleaned from The Urantia Book.

While Prometheus (perhaps the most frequently cited publisher in the bibliographies here) has published dozens of antiparanormal books and several collections of articles from CSICOP's official journal, Skeptical Enquirer, these are likely to be in circulating collections.
