Paper
15: The Seven Superuniverses
1. What insights
might the elaborate organization of the universe have on our lives and spiritual
growth?
2. Why did Christ
Michael in the Fifth Epochal Revelation give us a universe picture much larger
than that received by most planets at our stage of evolution?
3. Are there benefits
in living in a universe not yet having physical stability, just beginning
its development toward light and life?
4. To what extent
is love and mercy, the characteristics of Orvonton, demonstrated on our world?
5. Is Ezekiel's
universe vision of "wheels within wheels" suggestive of the cosmology we find
in The Urantia Book ? How did ancient people achieve views which tend
to parallel discovered fact and truth?
6. What considerations
might the Ancient of Days explore when deciding on the eternal life or death
of an individual?
7. What are the
potential advantages of never losing our capacity to appreciate and enjoy
lower levels of existence as we advance in the universe?
8. How compatible
is our scientific cosmology with The Urantia Book cosmology?
9. Will knowledge
of our universe and superuniverse government effect our government forms and
practices in the future?
10. Does the tendency
to replace names with numbers in complex societies have a de-humanizing effect?
11. How will the
geographic location of our world in the universe condition our spiritual view
of human destiny?
12. From our scientific
knowledge, what planets, besides Urantia, might be suited to harbor life?
13. Since the executive
branch and the legislative council of the superuniverse are always in agreement,
what is the purpose of the legislative council?
