Discussion Questions
for a study of
The Urantia Book

by Dr. Meredith J. Sprunger


Paper 87: The Ghost Cults

1. Why have human beings tended to view spirit forces as dangerous rather than helpful?

2. Why do we still use practices of ancient defenses against evil, such as burning candles or using holy water, even though we no longer believe in their efficacy?

3. Why do people still think they can bargain with God?

4. Why do we use "solemn style" in prayer rather than common language?

5. Why do some people thing that fasting or sex suppression is a way to get benefits from God?

6. What kind of religious organizations will carry the teachings of the Urantia Papers to the world?

7. What are the most important suggestions for a new  cult given by this Brilliant Evening Star?

8. What masterful mystery and worthful unattainable will new religious organizations have?

9. Why were we given this paper on Ghost Cults?
