It says that the Leviticus laws were man made, a part of evolutionary religion.
Evidently they forgot to evolve into the two greatest commandments, didn't they?

Or perhaps they should have evolved into the Humanist Manifesto, or the atheists' new ten commandments?

Melchizedeks moral codes came from the preveous codes of Dalamatia, located in what is now the Persian Gulf. 500,000 years ago the Prince arrived and brought with him 100 volunteer super-mortals (humans who had lived and died or translated to heaven, from other worlds). Such volunteers are chosen for this distinguished service on the Princes staff.

In Dalamatia:
66:7.8 Hap presented the early races with a moral law. This code was known as "The Father's Way" and consisted of the following seven commands:

1. You shall not fear nor serve any God but the Father of all.
2. You shall not disobey the Father's Son, the world's ruler, nor show disrespect to his superhuman associates.
3. You shall not speak a lie when called before the judges of the people.
4. You shall not kill men, women, or children.
5. You shall not steal your neighbor's goods or cattle.
6. You shall not touch your friend's wife.
7. You shall not show disrespect to your parents or to the elders of the tribe.

Well no, they were loyal to God and had faith. But anyone who disagrees with you is an atheist in your world. The problem isn't others, it's you.

Where did the bodies come from used by the "Sons of God who came down and mated with the daughters if men" ????

This is according to the Urantia revelation of 1955:

66:2.7 Accordingly, fifty males and fifty females of the Andon and Fonta posterity, representing the survival of the best strains of that unique race, were chosen by the Life Carriers. With one or two exceptions these Andonite contributors to the advancement of the race were strangers to one another. They were assembled from widely separated places by co-ordinated Thought Adjuster direction and seraphic guidance at the threshold of the planetary headquarters of the Prince. Here the one hundred human subjects were given into the hands of the highly skilled volunteer commission from Avalon, who directed the material extraction of a portion of the life plasm of these Andon descendants. This living material was then transferred to the material bodies constructed for the use of the one hundred Jerusemite members of the Prince's staff. Meantime, these newly arrived citizens of the system capital were held in the sleep of seraphic transport.

66:2.8 These transactions, together with the literal creation of special bodies for the Caligastia one hundred, gave origin to numerous legends, many of which subsequently became confused with the later traditions concerning the planetary installation of Adam and Eve.

"The foundation of the universe is material, but the essence of life is spirit. The Father of spirits is also the ancestor of universes; the eternal Father of the Original Son is also the eternity-source of the original pattern, the Isle of Paradise.

Matter—energy—for they are but diverse manifestations of the same cosmic reality, as a universe phenomenon is inherent in the Universal Father. “In him all things consist.” Matter may appear to manifest inherent energy and to exhibit self-contained powers, but the lines of gravity involved in the energies concerned in all these physical phenomena are derived from, and are dependent on,
Paradise, The ultimaton, the first measurable form of energy, has Paradise as its nucleus.

There is innate in matter and present in universal space a form of energy not known on Urantia. When this discovery is finally made, then will physicists feel that they have solved, almost at least, the mystery of matter. And so will they have approached one step nearer the Creator; so will they have mastered one more phase of the divine technique; but in no sense will they have found God, neither will they have established the existence of matter or the operation of natural laws apart from the cosmic technique of Paradise and the motivating purpose of the Universal Father." UB 1955

But UB readers already knew this before science discovered it.
Was the UB right about the time (35,000 years ago), or does UB have its own system of timekeeping?

The celestials who wrote the UB were here then and now. They were here during the ordinary, pre-exaggeration history of Israel.!

Which one of them gave Joseph Smith those Gol...

... never mind.

It was Mŏrŏnī, wasn't it?
Gabriel appeared to Marry 2,000 years ago to announce the coming of the son. He oversaw the Urantia revelation. The Mormons don't have anything to do with the Urantia revelation.

How did the writer know all this? If you say it was revealed to him by God, how do you know it was revealed to him by God?

Sound like he made it up to me.

The Wikipedia on the UB has some explanation of how it came about. Basically the celestial authors used an individual as a conduit for the transmition of the papers and dialogue with the "contact commission". The person through whom the papers were transmitted was disinterested in the material. His name was kept secret and his identity was forever sealed at the passing of those who knew. There has been speculation but basically we shall never know.

Sure, sure.

And did you know that the celestial authors used me as as a conduit for the transmission of this post informing you that the Urantia book is wrong. ;)

Was he honest? Was he trustworthy? Was he informed? Was he joking? Was it all a big hoax? Why should I believe a thing he says?

If you are interested read the book. Contempt prior to investigation guarantees a life of perpetual ignorance. If you just want to be a heckler then move on.

I read enough of the Urantia book to know I don't need to read more.
Contempt prior to investigation guarantees a life of perpetual ignorance.
..but contempt after investigation is just fine?
If you just want to be a heckler then move on.
I want you to make your case. How can your case be solid, if you cannot answer simple questions about it?
