This link almost didn’t appear, but a tenacious will ensures it.
In recent times, there have been controversies about the use of mailing lists, some of which are more or less valid.
The UB contains information on a variety of subjects that, I understand, are not of interest to everyone. But should we therefore prevent people from expressing themselves?

INTRODUCTION
Over the past centuries, Christianity has been a dominant force in Europe and Western civilization. Churches were packed and religion was an integral part of life.

Marjorie Ray encountered the Urantia Book 45 years ago and has been a student ever since. She was most fortunate that very early on she was mentored by Jim and Eunice Mills. She has participated in, hosted and fostered study groups from the beginning.
Marjorie was trained as a biochemist and spent her entire career in academic science; retiring after more than 35 years as a researcher. Her particular areas of interest were protein/lipid interactions, lipoproteins and integral membrane proteins. Her career afforded many wonderful opportunities for academic publications, national and international collaborations/travel, and work experiences in dynamic environments.
In retirement, she has returned to a long standing interest in philosophy, especially the area of ethics. She currently lives outside Birmingham, Alabama, USA but is anticipating relocation to the Pacific Northwest USA very soon.
The entire science of mathematics, the entire domain of philosophy, the most advanced physics and chemistry could neither predict nor know that the union of two gaseous atoms of hydrogen with one gaseous atom of oxygen would produce a new and qualitatively superadded substance liquid water. The observation of this physicochemical phenomenon alone should have prevented the development of materialist philosophy and mechanical cosmology. (UB 12:9.3)

of any problem of reality—human or divine, earthly or cosmic—except by the complete and unprejudiced study and correlation of three phases of universal reality: origin, history, and destiny. The right understanding of these three experiential realities provides the necessary basis for a wise estimate of the present status." (UB 19:1.6)
Our present difficulty in grasping the “present state” of the race question arises from the fact that our appreciable understanding of the origin, history, and acquired destiny of The Urantia Book is largely confined to the pages of the book itself. The absence of corroborating evidence in the human record will be sufficient to turn many thinking people away. Such is our present status. In spite of his own divine status, his teachings, and his life, Jesus suffered the same misunderstanding.
