(continued) What causes this great divide between materialist and religionist? Why do the satisfactions that quench the thirst of one leave the other parched?

What is it that makes something feel true? In our " mind arena of choice " ( 111:1.0 ), when we choose to believe that something is true, what's really going on? Let's discount the gullible (who fall for whatever they're told) and think instead about the best of our scientists and philosop... |

Hi Angels Online, Notice that 15:3.1 (p167.17) refers to " the starry realms visible to the naked eye ". If we exclude the 3 to 5 faint nebulae visible (to some with good eyes), then all these stars are within the Milky Way, and thus most are much less than 50,000 light years away. However... |

What is God's perspective about further development of some another level of reality actualization that spawns another vastness of potential to us for experience. One cycle of completion gives birth to another cycle that brings fresh possibilities and experience? Not sure about Dad's perspective O:... |

The clarification here is not WHEN Father Fragments came to Urantia (as the quote above from Paper 69 states that even the descendants of Andon and Fonta had Thought Adjusters), but TO WHAT EXTENT Father Fragments were bestowed on Urantia. Hi JonG, Assuming that an Adjuster is required for initiati... |

"I know I have read (or heard in an audio file) that exact thing somewhere, ..." " Personalizing an Adjuster by the human technique " serves as punchline near the end of this " Personality Series " on YouTube... :biggrin: (see pages 21-22 of the script , or from here -... |

Thanks for such a great discussion! Worth noting that the UB authors actually redefine our old word-concept " personality ". The whole point of a Father Fragment seems to be to join with a personality, grant the gift of immortality potential via the soul, and one day integrate with that pe... |
