Urantia Book

I've found out about the "Urantia Book". It's a religious document that seems related to Christianity and has a science fiction like overtone.

You can find it here.

What I'm trying to find out is, why is this eccentric looking text a bunch of hooey?

Do you actually think there is some kind of merit to this book and why?

Remember to back up any answers.

http://www.urantia.org/en/urantia-book  They figured if L. Ron Hubbard could do it in 1953, they could have their own version.  "back up any answers"  ??  I'd rather start my own cult.

Just saying "Oh they're just a bunch of con artists" doesn't tell me much. Maybe you could give a link or whatever? Are you assuming they copycatted L. Ron Hubbard or do you have a source?

You'd rather start your own cult than back up answers? I'm going to finish looking into this eventually.

I gave you the link.  They got the book from aliens in 1955.  What more do you need to know?

And I have my own cult.  The First Ethereal Church of the Electric Soul.  It's very exclusive.
