Hi Al,

Thanks for proposing a new topic. I am like you - interested, but not qualified as regards science in general.

I just want to point out that the section you cited is in Paper 42, not Paper 41

Wow. Every time I hear a story like this, where AI acheives some amazing feat in a flash - whether it is in art, in rephrasing concepts in the UB, or in music, like with your friend and his samba - I am amazed. But also I get a little niggling worry in the back of my mind that our machines are going...

Hi Jim, and thanks for this post. I agree with you. None of us operates in a vacuum; we always need others to accomplish things of value. I have always loved the following passages that help explain how certain people are drawn together: 7:1.6 Spirit-gravity pull and response thereto operate not onl...

Hello Jim...I agree that that is a good article, and shows a step forward in modern thought. The article came acrosss my notice, too, just a few days ago. I like it so much I recommended it for our front page. So, you might see it there in the coming weeks, with some UB citations, like this one: 65:...

Hi redryder, Matthew Block has compiled a comprehenive resource guide for the human sources that the revelators used. You can find his work with a simple google search. The material is pretty easy to use, especially if you have some specific quotation in a specific paper that you want to identify. I...

Hi redryder... Here is a resource that describes the authors of The Urantia Book - there are more than 20 authors, so it's a fairly good representation of some of the spiritual beings we read about in the book. It gives you a good description of the beings and their functions in the universe. Other ...

Hi redryder, and thanks for another good question. In my experience, love is more than feeling. It is a decison that I can make. The UB teaches us that love is the desire to do good to another. I believe that we can love God by doing good to the brother/sisterhood of mankind. God lives in each of th...

Good question. And happy to know that you have discovered TUB! I suspect that the sepahic planetary government work the same way all angelic ministry works. Angels lead human beings, they guard us.

I’m curious about any experience of other members with querying ChatGpt about TUB. Do you think it’s a usefull tool? Can you get it to generate an incorrect answer? Here's one reader's efforts using AI to explain the Foreword of The Urantia Book: "The Urantia Book Foreword: Conceptual Expansio...
