      If ever, help now: Shiba’s hurt; it’s crisis time for the Son of Man Urantia Project

      Hi everyone

      I was raised a warrior in the true sense: my father was a PJ, is on the Viet Nam Memorial Wall, and died 54 years ago today—MSgt Charles Allen Kezer, USAF, Parafuckingrescue. Money was another tool, nothing more: something to use, never grub for, and never to beg for or bend over for…we were to stand the line, never give up, and die if needed protecting the county.

      That imprint is as strong now as it was then: asking for help, donations, or purchases is difficult—embarrassing—but that’s where I’m at. So while donations will be accepted, I’d feel a lot better if you at least got something for your help. Options are below; it is your call.

      Last night one of our fourteen rescue animals—Shiba (short for Queen of…), the youngest of the four dogs was hit by a car. She’s in critical condition getting reconstructive surgery now, and may not make it.

      After the last three years of focusing on the Son of Man Urantia Project my savings have all been used, and we are surviving on help from my mother every month until the project supports itself. This bill for Shiba tonight will already break me, and if she lives, we’ve been told it is going to mean at least another couple of surgeries on her hips in the month ahead.

      On my end, I’m selling off all equipment left over from trying to start an ocean swimming school/beach club out on the Ecuadorian coast during the pandemic (f’cking brilliant idea), and looking for ways to restart fitness training older adults. Those of you in Cuenca might see my gringo ass selling bananas at the stoplights—but be careful, my aim is good.

      Ways you can help and still get value for your money:

      1. Subscribe to the Son of Man Urantia Project or up-grade from being a free subscriber to paid yearly or becoming a founding member (thanks again, Doug!). Those funds should get to me within the week. Go here: https://robertakezer.substack.com

      2. Buy a digital PDF copy of Son of Man: Urantia, 2nd edition for $3.50 (or whatever you wish to pay). The first edition of Son of Man: Urantia had some editing and typo problems, but the second edition is clean. These funds will also get to me within the week. Go here: https://son-of-man-urantia.sellfy.store

      3. Buy a book copy of Son of Man: Urantia in e-book, paperback, or hardback. These funds will take up to two months to get to me, but will be needed at the time. Go here: https://www.lulu.com/search?page=1&sortBy=RELEVANCE&q=son+of+man%3A+urantia&pageSize=10&adult_audience_rating=00

      I will update on Shiba when the chaos settles in a few days.
      Thank you, and Godspeed.
      Bob

                              Re: Recent Call for Transparency

                              This response to a Urantia community brother covers most of the comments I have received across the Urantia facebook groups regarding my last post, “A Call for Transparency: the Urantia Foundation.
                              Godspeed, everyone,
                              Bob

                              Thank you, David, for the reasonable response. The rancor from a small but vocal portion of the Urantia community can rival that of the Christians and atheists that come at me. Stealers Wheel added another spoke…

                              Yes, for most of the last forty years I have followed the directive from “someone” to give the book without preamble and let it stand on its own. The problems with that idea from a cognitive science view are numerous, not to mention the limits that process places on who has access to the material and the elitist aura it gives the community. Furthermore, it is a static approach rather than one that gives precedence to the needs or “truth” of the present moment, which is where all power resides. In other words, it is another attempt at control by saying “this is how it is now and forever more.”

                              As far as the needs of the present moment are concerned, I suggest everyone start connecting the dots between the Urantia Book and all that has been revealed over the last five years and is currently happening in the world today. To think that a work like the Urantia Book was brought forth at the time it was with the personalities involved without somehow being influenced by those in power then and now is naïve. It is imperative that humanity has the transparency it needs to filter through the false narratives that we are learning have been imprinted on society for other’s benefit so we can determine the truth for ourselves, and our current present day need for the truth takes precedence over any dictates from almost a hundred years ago.

                              At this moment the Urantia community may be more of a problem than a help to humanity finding the truth. Too many in the community are appeasing their mental addiction to the fantastic in parts 1-3 at the expense of engaging the down and dirty hard work of becoming a better human being as we are directed to do in part 4. I am urging the community to do what they are told to do in the revelation to secure both their eternal life and in the process help our world find better days, and that is to know the life and teachings of Jesus as presented in part 4. That knowledge not only takes precedence over the information in parts 1-3, but it also cannot be known just by reading through the material one time. It has to be continually studied and integrated into our daily lives, and in the process we progressively uncover more and deeper knowledge that we can then use in our service to humanity. The essence of the universe is love, and it is only by moving through the traps of the fear-based mental stage of development and into higher levels of spiritual progression that we can enact that love in service to others. The idea of validating the truth through our hearts relates to that experience of daily being mentored by the presence of God inside us, not determining if this fact or that in parts 1-3 is true.

                              This community can be a huge asset to the world if it would only take to heart and then enact what we are asked to do: to find new and appealing ways to introduce this generation of people to the gospel of Jesus—the fatherhood of God, the siblinghood of humanity, and our duty to serve others for the sake of God our mutual father. It comes down to either taking the easy and superficially pleasing way of stroking our egos with supposed facts, or embarking on the hard but eminently more satisfying path of personal growth and service to humanity as a Son of God. This is the work to which I have dedicated my life, and the community’s support by subscribing to the Son of Man: Urantia Project is needed and requested.

                              Godspeed, everyone.
