      <description><![CDATA[Some UB readers think the 'Grey aliens' of UFO lore might be the non-breathers described in Paper 49. The Urantia Book has a lot to say about non-breathers. Most of it makes that theory very difficult to sustain.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[If you've watched Ancient Aliens or read Zecharia Sitchin, you already sense that mainstream archaeology is missing something about human origins. You're right.

      <description><![CDATA[Revelation 4:4 describes 24 elders seated around the throne. Most Christians assume this is symbolic. The Urantia Book says they are real people, specific, named individuals from Urantia's history, who currently serve as advisory counselors to the system government on Jerusem.

      <description><![CDATA[It wasn't a battle with swords. It was an ideological insurrection that ripped through an entire system of 619 inhabited worlds, isolated 37 planets from universe circuits, and left our world spiritually quarantined for 200,000 years.

The Dead Sea Scrolls call him a divine being. Paul calls him eternal. The Urantia Book says he was real, his mission was real, and the reason his record is so thin is that Hebrew scribes spent centuries trying to remove him.]]></description>
