Transcript
- 0:00Welcome to another edition of the Urantia Radio Podcast.
- 0:03I'm your host, long time reader and student of the 5th epical
- 0:07Revelation. And today we're going to take an
- 0:09interesting turn into the geopolitical spiritual realm and
- 0:13talk about connecting some dots that I think that you'll find
- 0:16very interesting about the state of our planet.
- 0:19What the revelators tried to tell us in 1934 and what we can
- 0:23learn from ChatGPT should be an interesting episode.
- 0:28Hang on, say folks, I do want to let you know that my son is a
- 0:32real estate agent in Southwest Florida and we recently have
- 0:36partnered together and I'm helping to get the word out.
- 0:39He works for a wonderful real estate agency based out of Cape
- 0:42Coral, FL Miles Aubashon. And this is a truly great time
- 0:46to consider that if you're looking for a place to live
- 0:48where you can raise your quality of living, maybe reduce the
- 0:52amount of snow that you deal with, or maybe just want to get
- 0:54out of the big cities and you want to experience a different
- 0:58kind of living. Well, let me tell you something.
- 1:00My family and I have lived in Florida for a long time and I've
- 1:03lived a lot of other places and we love it here.
- 1:06The people are great, the environment, the weather, you
- 1:08can't beat it. And frankly, it's affordable.
- 1:11So Southwest Florida dreamhome.com if you're
- 1:15interested in taking a look at some of the properties and what
- 1:17life might be like down here in the South, Southwest Florida
- 1:21dreamhome.com check it out. Welcome to another edition of
- 1:53the Rancho Radio Podcast. We're going to get into
- 1:55something kind of interesting today that I think is more on
- 1:58the contemporary level of things.
- 2:00I do want to share a couple of things with you that are kind of
- 2:04exciting here I'll bring to your attention.
- 2:06One comes from the fellowship and I hope I can find it right
- 2:10away. I believe it's right here.
- 2:15They are going to try to put together a scientific symposium
- 2:20in 2025. It's called The Evolution of
- 2:22Human Knowledge. 100 years later, Thursday, November 6th,
- 2:27which is a Saturday, and November 8th.
- 2:30OK, so it's between November 6th and November 8th, 2025, and it's
- 2:36going to be very interesting. And right now they're putting a
- 2:38call out. The Urantia Foundation is for
- 2:43people who have a scientific background, who are also Urantia
- 2:46book readers and who want to participate in this scientific
- 2:50symposium. So we're getting a way ahead of
- 2:53this because it's all the way in November, but it's Thursday,
- 2:57November 6th again through the November 8th.
- 2:59The evolution of human knowledge 100 years later.
- 3:03And again, if you have a background in some specialized
- 3:07field, astronomy, physics, quantum theory, whatever, and
- 3:12you've long held that the Urantia book does or doesn't
- 3:17provide any kind of scientific prophecy or advanced knowledge,
- 3:23I'm sure the Foundation would love for you to put together a
- 3:26little presentation which you could give to others.
- 3:31I might try to do that. I don't know, I don't have a
- 3:33real scientific background, but I do want to delve into
- 3:39something that I think the Urantia book does try to prepare
- 3:44us for. And so let me set set the stage
- 3:47for this. A couple of days ago, I read an
- 3:50article, I think the gentleman's name is David Stockman.
- 3:55I think I have that right. And the, the, and I'm going to
- 4:00share with you some interesting things that you that I think
- 4:03you'll appreciate. It is called, yeah, it is by
- 4:08state, David Stockman. I'm going to save this article
- 4:12right now, as a matter of fact. And I will e-mail it to anyone
- 4:18who wants a copy because by the time you go look for it on the
- 4:21Internet, it's going to be down the rabbit hole.
- 4:25And the name of the paper is called NATO, The Case to Get out
- 4:29Now. And it's a very lengthy piece,
- 4:33so you might want to, you know, get yourself a nice pot of
- 4:36coffee. It'll take you about 20, maybe
- 4:3930 minutes to read it. I read the whole thing because I
- 4:41found it fascinating and for a couple of different reasons.
- 4:45The premise of the article is that American military has now
- 4:51been, and not just American military, but since about 1917
- 4:57things started to change globally on our planet.
- 5:02And and that is about the time that the Urantia book began to
- 5:06appear. So I'm going to make a, a
- 5:08correlation a little bit because David Stockman takes us through
- 5:13the last 100 years and talks about how after World War One,
- 5:17when when we should have learned our lesson, we instead started
- 5:23creating the conditions that eventually led to World War 2
- 5:27and then created the conditions for the Cold War.
- 5:31And all of this time American military has gone from being
- 5:37defensive to offensive. And as a result of this, we've
- 5:43we've had a hand in a lot of catastrophe.
- 5:47And what I appreciate that again, the correlation, for
- 5:50example, in in David Stockman's piece is he talks about how the
- 5:55United, United States created the League of Nations as a way
- 5:59of solidifying nations so that they would become more peaceful.
- 6:04Well, the League of Nations didn't work.
- 6:06And it's interesting to note that around the time the Arantia
- 6:09book was written, they actually mentioned the League of Nations.
- 6:14And it's in the context if of that peace will not come to
- 6:19Earth without God, just setting up a League of Nations is not
- 6:24going to get the job done. And it it turned out to be true
- 6:29because the League of Nations fell apart.
- 6:31And then it led to the exploitation of some European
- 6:34countries, which led to the rise of Nazism in Germany and Hitler.
- 6:40And then it talks about the article talks about, you know,
- 6:44the communist thing and and how Americans have used the threat
- 6:48of communism to justify its military hegemony all over the
- 6:53planet. To the point now where the
- 6:56budget just to keep our military in operation in all these
- 7:00different countries in the world, NATO and UN and
- 7:03everything else is in the trillion dollars a year.
- 7:08Now, you ask, well, what does it have to do with the Urantia
- 7:10book? Well, it's interesting because
- 7:12in the Urantia book they they talk about another country.
- 7:20And I want to share with you what life is like on this other
- 7:22country. And it's an interesting story
- 7:25because this country is on a world that's very much like our
- 7:29own. The Urantia book says when they
- 7:32talk about Paper 72, the government on another planet, we
- 7:37I guess, have a sister sphere in our neck of the woods, if you
- 7:41will, and our past history is so similar that the revelators were
- 7:47given permission to share some information about how this other
- 7:51world works. Now, some of the things that we
- 7:54have in common with this other world is that this one specific
- 7:59country that they go into detail with is on a country that's
- 8:04that's on a continent that is surrounded by water.
- 8:07That's number one. Number two, it's an amalgamation
- 8:10of the yellow race and the blue race.
- 8:13So imagine if you had a, a continent that was peopled with
- 8:17sort of a mixture of American Chinese, OK.
- 8:21It also talks about how they became a constitutional Republic
- 8:26about the same time that we did on our world.
- 8:31And, and, and, and then it also talks about some of the things
- 8:35they're going through with the way that they teach their
- 8:37children the religious aspects of the nation.
- 8:41It's a very interesting read. It's essentially off world.
- 8:45You're, you're reading about life on another world and the
- 8:49similarities between us and them, and they go into grave
- 8:52detail about all of this stuff. It's a fascinating read.
- 8:57But I read this article and I thought about why would the
- 9:01revelators give us this information on this other world
- 9:04unless they were trying to teach us something, a lesson that
- 9:08would, you know, prevent a lot of future pain.
- 9:12Now I went to AI today and I, I started doing AQ and a with
- 9:17artificial intelligence ChatGPT. And I asked it what what it
- 9:22predicted in terms of based on the current trajectory of the
- 9:25American economy, how long will it be before the dollar crashes?
- 9:30And they said, if everything the ChatGPT is answer was 1930 or
- 9:362039. So let that sink in.
- 9:40So if there's a financial collapse in the United States or
- 9:45if war breaks out and the dollar crashes, there's going to be a
- 9:50lot of pain and suffering. Doesn't take much imagination.
- 9:57And we saw during COVID how quickly.
- 9:59And I've lived in places where entire sections of the state
- 10:04have been destroyed by natural weather, and it throws people
- 10:09into a heap of disarray, to say the least.
- 10:14So we're at a very vulnerable point.
- 10:16And that would justify the revelators trying to give us
- 10:20some information that would help us, actually.
- 10:23So let me just share with you. I won't read the whole thing,
- 10:27but it talks about, well, actually I will share with you
- 10:30what the Arantia book says. I will read the last paragraph
- 10:34of Paper 72, Section 11, and see if I could get to the good point
- 10:42where it ends. It says all, all.
- 10:44And again, it's talking about these people that live on this
- 10:46continent. They're one of the most
- 10:47advanced, you know, cultures on the planet, very similar to
- 10:51America. And it says, although these
- 10:55people maintain a powerful war establishment as a defense
- 10:59against invasion by the surrounding hostile peoples, it
- 11:02may be recorded to their credit that they have not in over 100
- 11:07years employed these military resources in an offensive war.
- 11:12They have become civilized to that point where they can
- 11:15vigorously defend civilization without yielding to the
- 11:19temptation to utilize their war powers in aggression.
- 11:24There have been no civil wars since the establishment of the
- 11:28United Continental State, but during the last two centuries
- 11:32these people have been called upon to wage 9 fierce defensive
- 11:37conflicts, three of which were against mighty confederations of
- 11:41world powers. They're saying here that in the
- 11:45last 200 years they've had nine conflicts where they had to
- 11:47defend their land from other world powers.
- 11:52Although this nation maintains adequate defense against attack
- 11:56to hostile neighbors, it pays far more attention to the
- 12:00training of statesman scientists and philosophers.
- 12:04When at peace with the world, all mobile defense mechanisms
- 12:08are quite fully employed in trade, commerce, and recreation.
- 12:12When war is declared, the entire nation is mobilized.
- 12:16Throughout this period of hostilities, military pay
- 12:19obtains in all industries, and the chiefs of all military
- 12:23departments become members of the chief Executive's cabinet.
- 12:27Now, I'm sure probably the more experienced or long term readers
- 12:31have have read Paper 72 and it's an exciting read because they,
- 12:35and we talked about the same paper before when it comes to
- 12:39how we could better educate our children and that our schools
- 12:43are in great need of rehabilitation because of what
- 12:46we choose to emphasize for their education.
- 12:49And it's a great read. And this is one of the when they
- 12:52talk about the scientific symposium that's coming up in
- 12:54November. What I'd like to point out is
- 12:57that this specific paper probably gives us more hints on
- 13:02how to improve our country and our world than any other part of
- 13:05the book. It's the only part of the book
- 13:08that actually literally tells us what life is like off world on
- 13:14another planet very similar to our own.
- 13:18So I asked Chat GPTI this question and then it gave me an
- 13:24answer. Yes, in Paper 72, Section 11,
- 13:28which discusses the military preparedness of the continent,
- 13:32what lessons could the United States learn about reducing its
- 13:36military presence overseas at the current time?
- 13:39That was the question I asked. Here was the answer.
- 13:44The Urantia Book in Papers 72, Section 11 describes the
- 13:48military preparedness of a neighboring planets nation,
- 13:52offering insights that could be pertinent to the United States
- 13:55considering and regarding its overseas military presence.
- 13:59Key aspects include integration of military and civilian
- 14:05training. Military training is combined
- 14:08with industrial, scientific, or professional education, ensuring
- 14:12that individuals are equipped with skills applicable to both
- 14:16defense and civilian sectors. This approach prevents the
- 14:21formation of a distinct professional military class and
- 14:26promotes societal cohesion. So take note of that because in
- 14:31David Stockton's article, he talks about how there's now the
- 14:35military industrial complex that's been in full operation
- 14:38since about 1949. And this is what's driving this
- 14:42constant need to have our military presence all over the
- 14:46world. And we've taken it upon
- 14:47ourselves. There's no question we want to
- 14:50be at the head of the table. So I found it interesting that
- 14:53David Stockman, it's basically saying we're doing exactly what
- 14:57this country that is described in the Urantia book is not
- 15:01doing. Another example, voluntary
- 15:05military service with educational benefits on this
- 15:10country, on this world. The way they do it with this
- 15:14group is that peacetime military service is voluntary with four
- 15:19years enlistments, same as our own, during which individuals
- 15:22pursue specialized studies alongside military tactics.
- 15:27This dual force training ensures that service members contribute
- 15:31positively to society during and after their service.
- 15:37I think we do a lot of that with a lot of people that go into the
- 15:40military. One of my best friends learned a
- 15:43skill in the military, and he is continued in this for his life.
- 15:49My cousin who worked on Navy helicopters continued after his
- 15:53service. So in a way, we are kind of
- 15:55doing this already, right? Utilization of military
- 15:59resources in civil sectors During peacetime, defense
- 16:03mechanisms are employed in trade, commerce, and recreation,
- 16:07ensuring that military assets serve constructive societal
- 16:10purposes. So they're saying that the
- 16:13military actually participates and things like helping build
- 16:16roads, maintain bridges, things that contribute to the
- 16:20constructive societal, you know, purposes.
- 16:25That actually would be a great idea, wouldn't it?
- 16:28We could learn from that. Take our military when they come
- 16:31home and there's no war and we can put them to work at helping
- 16:35to build bridges and make sure that deforestation, things like
- 16:39that. Lessons for the United States
- 16:42According to Jack GP GPT when it compares Paper 7211 to our
- 16:48current conditions, it says the lessons for the United States
- 16:53include emphasize defensive strategies.
- 16:57Prioritizing defense over offensive operations aligns with
- 17:01a commitment to peace and reduces the necessity for
- 17:04extensive oversee military deployments.
- 17:10Encouraging military personnel to acquire civilian skills can
- 17:14facilitate their reintegration into society post service and
- 17:19ensure that military training benefits the broader community.
- 17:24Another way it could improve offer educational and
- 17:28professional development during military service can attract
- 17:31individuals seeking personal growth, thereby enhancing the
- 17:35quality and versatility of the armed forces.
- 17:40And then it concludes with this. By adopting these principles,
- 17:44the United States could consider reducing its overseas military
- 17:47footprint while maintaining a strong defense, posturing,
- 17:52fostering a more integrated and versatile military force, and
- 17:56promoting global peace and stability.
- 18:01Now, this coincides with again, David Stockman's article, and
- 18:04again, I'll e-mail to anybody who wants to read it and compare
- 18:08to what the Urantia Book said in 1934.
- 18:11And that's when we think about this.
- 18:14The Urantia Book was written in 1934351942.
- 18:19The plates were made by Donnelly and Donnelly.
- 18:23No more changes could be made. It was those plates that
- 18:26facilitated the first printing of the Urantia book that
- 18:29occurred in 1951. Or it went it went to press, I
- 18:32think in 51 and then printed the 1st edition in 1955.
- 18:38By then, the Cold War was already in full force.
- 18:42We had nuclear arsenals. There was a detente going on
- 18:47between Russia and China and America and all this stuff.
- 18:50And now we live in this world that's on the brink of World War
- 18:54Three. Now, other similarities with
- 18:57this country that's written about in the Urantia book, which
- 19:01is a revelation, talks about the fact that this country is also
- 19:06protected by by the ocean. It is not likely that anybody
- 19:11will ever attack the United States.
- 19:13Now, David Stockman makes that same point over and over at
- 19:18least four times. He mentions that there's really
- 19:21no legitimate worry for Americans to ever worry about a
- 19:27country invading us and trying to.
- 19:29Now, they could do a lot of harm to us.
- 19:32They could develop out and create, you know, cyber warfare,
- 19:36which we worry about. They could create chaos in our
- 19:41society. But that doesn't necessarily
- 19:43mean that they would then land on our shores and take over the
- 19:47United States. In fact, there's a think group
- 19:49out today that talks about this very thing that it's not likely
- 19:55that anyone world government could ever be sustainable.
- 19:59They could try, but it's just too complicated.
- 20:02And as human beings, we'd like to think that we're capable of a
- 20:06lot more than we are, to put it that way.
- 20:10So again, while this is a a, this isn't necessarily a very
- 20:14spiritual episode of the Urantia book.
- 20:17I just want to try to tie some loose ends together, one of them
- 20:20being. That we're given a road map on
- 20:23how to be a country that can be defensive and still maintain the
- 20:27peace and it would be better, and also how to put our military
- 20:31to more effective use in our own society and improving our own
- 20:36society. And then you've got this article
- 20:39that corroborates exactly what the revelators were telling us
- 20:44in 1934. And then here it is 2025, and
- 20:50ChatGPT makes the same observation that David Stockman
- 20:55made in his article and the Urantia book made in Paper 72.
- 21:01I just find that fascinating and I hope you do too.
- 21:05A couple of things before I say goodbye for this episode.
- 21:09I have a new website out that is easy to remember.
- 21:13It's Urantia radio.org, urantiaradio.org and it it still
- 21:18needs some work, but all of the, all of the podcasts are also on
- 21:22that website. So if it's easier for you to
- 21:25listen to a podcast, just go to yourrancheradio.org.
- 21:29And there's also a way where you can leave a message.
- 21:31So if you want to just click the button and leave a comment,
- 21:35you're welcome to do that. And I'll be sure to include
- 21:37those. If you have a comment or a
- 21:40question about the Urantia book, you can do do that too, which I
- 21:44think is kind of cool. Reach out to the Urantia
- 21:48Foundation if you want to participate in this great
- 21:51scientific symposium coming up in November, and you can go to
- 21:54the Urantia Foundation, which is urantia.org.
- 21:58And until next time, have a great, wonderful day.
- 22:02Spring is in the air. The resurrection day is upon us.
- 22:06Be of good cheer. The.
