What has led you to believe in such a strange book?

What people find strange are 2 things :
  1. sometimes the names used for planets , stars , galaxies etc are the names from the UNIVERSAL records. e.g. Urantia = Earth or Havona = Heaven.
  2. Owing to such mass CONFUSION , DISCREPANCIES and CONTRADICTIONS in the " holy books " of the world's man-made religions , most of the people still LOVE their holy books even though it can be shown , without any doubt , that they are wrong. Instead of embracing the " revealed religion " they do what they have done before : crucify it !
The Truth Book ( Urantia Book ) is the most LOVING book the world has ever seen . Its 800 pages , out of 2100 , are devoted to Jesus Christ. After reading it , you will most certainly believe in Christ and you will understand why he is : The Way , The Truth and The Life .
Is there something strange or suspicious about the Urantia Book?
Examine everything carefully; hold fast to that which is good.

The Urantia Book to me seem to be a surrealistic science-fiction book.

It starts with some interesting statements, but the more you read it the less you understand.

Seem like the authors just joking and kidding. May some funny, but I don't see any spiritual, religious, or philosophical relevance within it at all.
