    The Late Great Urantia Revelation

    I agree. What does that have to do with the terms you were using? Stuart

    The Late Great Urantia Revelation

    Would you like me to define that concept for you? You are making the same basic error that these UB idiots make. You think that because you are using words that you are using them to describe something that has meaning to others. If it has universal meaning, then please explain it in...

    The Late Great Urantia Revelation

    Religious platitude. Religious platitude. Strawman. Religious platitude. They even knew the ideas were obsolete. That would be astounding if we did not already know they were unethical thieves and crackpot writers of poor fiction. The value in science is the statement of uncertainty...

    The Late Great Urantia Revelation

    Please replace the word revelation with retelling. In the case of science, the work had already been done and the Book of Rip Off just ripped it off without acknowledgment. Not that you have actually given us one example. Yes, and if you recall a couple of pages back I posted examples of his...

    The Late Great Urantia Revelation

    What a load of bollocks. You are using big, academic-sounding words to say nothing at all. Please define Infinite-Eternal before you continue to bang on in such an arrogant fashion. Then the atheists and agnostics can tell you what they have really considered in relation to your concepts...

    The Late Great Urantia Revelation

    And when you then consider that "universal Mind", "Infinite Consciousness" and "Universes" are all just words that do not describe anything real, you are left with "god" just being a word too. The existence of a word does not equate to the existence of the thing described by it. Stuart

    The Late Great Urantia Revelation

    I found that if you come to the UB with preconceptions that it is nonsense you leave after reading it (or a lot of it as I did) with those preconceptions intact. Stuart

    The Late Great Urantia Revelation

    I am not unhappy, but this is not about me personally. After all, I didn't plagiarise from 125 authors and confuse the boundaries between non-acknowledged science and fantasy fiction. Why should anyone tolerate apologists for plagiarism? Find a different topic to discuss by all means, but you...

    The Late Great Urantia Revelation

    This is like listening to the dying HAL in 2001. A sad shell of a machine, flawed, and destined to repeat nonsense until someone pulls the plug. HAL was a murderer, you are an apologist for plagiarism. Could you sing "Daisy" for us? That film was real sci-fi. Stuart

    The Late Great Urantia Revelation

    The last part of that quote from the Book of Rip Off, about there being no way of convincing others, is cultist claptrap. This meme inoculates you against critical thinking in regards to the methods humans have for acquiring the best quality of knowledge and encourages an attitude of...

    The Late Great Urantia Revelation

    I think the highest standard of probity is that of evidence, and you don't have any unambiguous evidence. Even the facts of the authorship of the UB are shrouded by the woo of the Sadler's refusal to say who was sitting in The Chair. Anyone in awe of that must be the most naive of the...

    The Late Great Urantia Revelation

    Why don't you try writing something impressive and test that hypothesis? I was interested enough to read more than half the text. Who knows when someone might actually discover something that really does challenge my conclusions? My distain for the Book of Flagrant Stealing comes from the...

    The Late Great Urantia Revelation

    There's hope for you yet! SNIPPED mostly accurate stuff from Wikipedia. SNIPPED stolen science and fantasy conspiracy theories from the Book of Plagiarism The biochemical details are unimportant when comparing scientific speculation with tryhard sci-fi nonsense. There are theories of how...

    The Late Great Urantia Revelation

    Was that second part a quote from the Book of Stealing? You were doing so well to be a fine example of proper referencing for these thieves and apologists for them. What do you think de Duve meant by that, and what do you think Sadler means by the bit of his you added? In regards to my own...

    The Late Great Urantia Revelation

    Didn't think I could do what? No, reasoned argument actually. Which I note you do not have in turn. It doesn't appear that I am particularly the angry one. But then that is what mindless adherence to a cult of plagiaristic and poorly-written sci-fi is likely to produce: irrational defense of...

    The Late Great Urantia Revelation

    I don't need patronising. I need to be told what POINT you are trying to make by posting this reference, and a link that leads directly to the text that supports this point. I can see why you are enamoured by this plagiaristic book. You have no concept of the point of referencing, and no...

    The Late Great Urantia Revelation

    Eugenics in William Sadler’s writing, from Psychiatric Nursing: “If the civilized races continue to be so highly sentimental respecting the preservation of the weak and the unfit and continue to allow them to breed indiscriminately, eventually, with the passing centuries, psychiatry will become...

    The Late Great Urantia Revelation

    This is from Wikipedia, you failed to acknowledge. What is it with you UB crackpots and referencing? Is it against the rules of your cult? You can lay money down that this page has been written by a UB fanatic. Probably there are very few people with either the motivation or the knowledge to...

    The Late Great Urantia Revelation

    No, your link leads not to any articles but to a page on some forum called TOL. It's not just the Sadler and Kellogg crackpots who had problems with referencing by the look of it. At least you attempted it. Stuart

    The Late Great Urantia Revelation

    I'm just stating the facts as defined in any dictionary. Quoting others or using their ideas without reference is the definition. Your denial is just really sad. What moral point are you trying to make by so tenaciously defending thieves? Yes, my mistake. That's what it must feel like to be...
