The Science Of Creation
How did life evolve?
Was it accidental, or by deisgn?
Let's look at what the Urantia Book says in Part 3 on the origin of life on our world.
And an extraordinary confession from an astrophysicist who says spontaneous creation is highly unlikely, and that the arrangement of black holes throughout the universe proves the creation could not have been random.
1
00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:04,040
One of the arguments against
faith is the story of creation
2
00:00:04,040 --> 00:00:08,920
is inconsistent with science.
Science says they can prove that
3
00:00:08,920 --> 00:00:12,640
evolution exists, but
religionists argue that the
4
00:00:12,640 --> 00:00:17,320
story of Adam is merely stating
that God is a grand designer and
5
00:00:17,320 --> 00:00:20,880
the story of creation is but an
abbreviated narrative that
6
00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:25,520
covers a long stretch of time.
OK, so how do we reconcile
7
00:00:25,520 --> 00:00:29,360
creation with modern science and
why is it important?
8
00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:34,520
It's important because people
who believe we are endowed or
9
00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:39,400
designed by our creator are in
fact marginalized by the secular
10
00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:43,360
view of creation, which of
course is accidental causation.
11
00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:47,120
Hence we have The Big Bang
theory, which has been the
12
00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:51,320
dominant theory in education in
the West for at least 100 years,
13
00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:56,080
which most non religious people
believe is that life arose
14
00:00:56,080 --> 00:01:01,880
spontaneously without any help
from any kind of guiding hand or
15
00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:04,720
as Bill Gates would say.
I mean, you believe in science,
16
00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:06,480
don't you?
I mean, what are we talking
17
00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:08,400
about here?
Do you believe in science or
18
00:01:08,400 --> 00:01:10,760
not?
And that's the attitude of most
19
00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:13,400
scientists today.
OK, so let's take on the
20
00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:16,080
challenge.
Let's say that scientists are
21
00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:19,840
right and that all the universe
did come from an instantaneous
22
00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:23,880
Big Bang that would, from a
single energy system, contain
23
00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:28,640
all of the potentials of life.
Would this hypothesis negate the
24
00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:33,600
need of a divine or enormously
advanced being of enormous
25
00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:36,480
intelligence?
What proof would there need to
26
00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:40,800
be to prove intelligent design?
Now, if this is a question upon
27
00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:44,040
which your faith depends, then
you'll want to stick around
28
00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:46,920
because that's exactly what
we're going to talk about on
29
00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:49,680
this episode of the Rancher
Radio Podcast.
30
00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:53,040
Now to my friends who enjoy this
program, thank you.
31
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:56,320
Our audience has grown 22% from
last year.
32
00:01:56,840 --> 00:02:01,000
People from 42 countries are now
listening to this podcast on a
33
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:04,200
regular basis, which means
people are interested in knowing
34
00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:06,160
more about the Urantia book
Revelation.
35
00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:10,560
And that's why we're here.
Hang on, if you travel and you
36
00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:14,840
want to save money, keep things
simple, then I highly recommend
37
00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:17,840
you use the sponsor of this
program, Low Cost Air.
38
00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:21,840
It's not a website, it's a phone
call and a real human who books
39
00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:24,120
your flight looking for the
lowest price.
40
00:02:24,640 --> 00:02:26,560
Here's the number and you may
want to write it down.
41
00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:33,840
It's 800-654-0759.
Again, 800-654-0759.
42
00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:57,200
I thought we could have some fun
with science in the Urantia
43
00:02:57,200 --> 00:02:59,760
book.
You know, one of the criticisms
44
00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:02,400
of the Urantia book is that it
doesn't appear altogether
45
00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:06,000
scientific.
And I was listening and scanning
46
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:08,000
some information.
I'll play a little bit later.
47
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:11,080
There's a scientist, obviously
an astronomer has a lot of
48
00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:15,080
knowledge about the way the the
Galaxy works and functions.
49
00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:18,400
He's going to come along and,
and, and I'll play a clip for
50
00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:23,520
you where he describes how black
holes are evidence of God's
51
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:25,360
creation.
And the way that he explains it
52
00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:28,840
is, is very interesting.
And it also substantiates what I
53
00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:31,440
was reading today in, in the
opening of where it talks about
54
00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:33,760
the beginnings of life on our
world.
55
00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:36,440
And one of the, one of the
comments that it makes, and I
56
00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:38,280
wanted to address it real
quickly here.
57
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:41,400
I, I ran across this statement
where it talks about how the
58
00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:45,200
life carriers had to introduce a
life form that could be
59
00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:48,440
sustained on our world based on
the design of, of our
60
00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:51,480
environment.
And there was a, a statement
61
00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:56,040
that said all ancestral life,
vegetable and animal evolved in
62
00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:59,680
a salt solution habitat.
And even the more highly
63
00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:03,240
organized land animals could not
continue to live did not the
64
00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:07,240
same essential salt solution
circulate throughout their
65
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:11,400
bodies in the bloodstreams which
freely bathed literally
66
00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:15,440
submerses every tiny living cell
in this briny deep?
67
00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:18,920
So that's the quote from the
Urantia book talking about how
68
00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:23,400
we have the salt in our bodies
and that all life on Earth
69
00:04:23,840 --> 00:04:27,000
originated from a salt solution
habitat.
70
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:31,840
Sodium chloride was introduced
and projected to be the chemical
71
00:04:31,840 --> 00:04:35,720
substance that the life carriers
would use when they introduced
72
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:39,640
life on our planet.
Again, God, God's design.
73
00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:45,000
I was curious about that quote
and I wanted to, I wanted to get
74
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:47,360
confirmation if that statement
is true.
75
00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:51,320
The statement that says that all
ancestral life, vegetable and
76
00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:54,440
animal evolved in a salt
solution habitat.
77
00:04:55,560 --> 00:05:01,120
And so I, I did a Google search
on this and I, I was confirmed.
78
00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:03,480
The statement is actually
factual.
79
00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:08,600
In fact, AI says the statement
is broadly factual with a few
80
00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:12,920
scientific clarifications.
The response says why it's
81
00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:14,960
essentially true.
That statement that all our
82
00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:18,840
early life involved evolved in a
salt water environment.
83
00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:23,560
It states the earliest light
life forms we know arose in
84
00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:25,320
Earth's ocean, which are salt
water.
85
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:28,880
This is supported by geology,
biology, and evolutionary
86
00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:32,240
science.
The oceans provided the chemical
87
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:36,840
stability required for early
biochemistry, so the claim that
88
00:05:36,840 --> 00:05:42,160
all ancestral life evolved in a
salt solution habitat is
89
00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:45,520
factually correct.
Number 2, The eternal fluids of
90
00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:49,200
land animals are chemically
similar to ancient seawater.
91
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:54,200
Vertebrate blood plasma and
interstitial fluid contain
92
00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:59,520
sodium, chloride, potassium,
calcium, magnesium,
93
00:05:59,920 --> 00:06:04,400
biocarbonate.
These electrolyte concentrations
94
00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:07,120
mirror the chemistry of early
oceans.
95
00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:11,280
Scientists often say mammals
carry the ocean within them.
96
00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:16,960
Life moved on to land but
retained an internal an internal
97
00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:22,160
ocean like salt environment for
its cells #3 All complex land
98
00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:25,280
animals require a salt based
internal medium.
99
00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:30,120
Every cell in a vertebrate body
is immersed in interstitial
100
00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:35,360
fluid which is a salt solution.
Muscles, nerves and metabolism
101
00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:37,800
all depend on electrolyte
gradients.
102
00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:41,800
Without salt solution, nerves
cannot fire, muscles cannot
103
00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:46,640
contract, cells cannot regulate
water, blood cannot transport
104
00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:49,080
nutrients.
So the statement that land
105
00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:52,440
animals could not continue to
live without this salt solution
106
00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:57,000
circulating throughout their
bodies is also biologically
107
00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:02,680
correct.
So in essence, the statement in
108
00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:04,720
the Oranja book is absolutely
true.
109
00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:10,400
And the paper that I'm referring
to, paper 58 section one, goes
110
00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:14,200
on to say that your primitive
ancestors freely circulated
111
00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:18,440
about in the salty ocean.
Today the same ocean like salty
112
00:07:18,440 --> 00:07:22,480
solution freely circulates about
in your bodies, bathing each
113
00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:27,080
individual cell with a chemical
liquid in all essentials
114
00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:30,800
comparable to the salt water
which stimulated the first
115
00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:35,280
protoplasmic reactions of the
first living cells to function
116
00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:40,440
on the planet.
And that's the explanation of
117
00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:46,240
early life forms and what they
projected as what they call the
118
00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:49,800
life carriers projected a sodium
chloride pattern of life.
119
00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:53,880
But it also adds that the life
carriers had to patiently wait
120
00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:57,880
until the the oceans became
sufficiently briny.
121
00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:02,680
And that took a long, long time,
hundreds of millions of years,
122
00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:05,640
in fact.
Another interesting thing that
123
00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:11,400
leads to this sound bite that
I'll play is the this idea of of
124
00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:15,800
how the universe is constructed.
Now, the Urantia book says that
125
00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:20,360
these dark islands of space,
which is how it refers to it in
126
00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:24,760
the 30s when the Urantia book
was written, we call them black
127
00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:28,480
holes, dark islands of space and
black holes are essentially the
128
00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:30,560
same thing.
They're they're they're dark,
129
00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:34,360
you can't see them and they have
immense gravity.
130
00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:38,880
And in part because many of
these dark islands or or black
131
00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:43,080
holes have different origins.
Some are of former sons that
132
00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:47,720
have condensed and becomes so
heavy with iron that they, they,
133
00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:51,520
the gravitational pull actually
pulls in mass from the
134
00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:53,960
surrounding area in that cosmic
neighborhood.
135
00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:59,520
And I'm not sure who this man
is, but the Urantia book states
136
00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:03,600
everything that this man is
saying here in the year 2025,
137
00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:07,120
thanks to our telescopes and all
of our survey equipment.
138
00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:10,960
And it corroborates what the
Urantia book was writing about
139
00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:13,200
in 1934.
So I want you to take a listen
140
00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:15,000
to this.
It's, it's a little bit long,
141
00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:20,320
but it's it's really a scientist
saying that there's no way, no,
142
00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:24,800
absolutely no way that all of
the universe is accidental
143
00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:27,880
causation.
Take a take a listen to this.
144
00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:32,240
Black holes is evidence of God's
care making the point that we're
145
00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:35,560
living in a Galaxy.
You have to be living in a big
146
00:09:35,560 --> 00:09:38,880
spiral Galaxy for advanced light
to be possible.
147
00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:42,520
But the bigger the Galaxy, the
bigger the black hole at its
148
00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:44,840
core and the more dangerous it
is.
149
00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:49,920
But for a variety of reasons,
our Milky Way Galaxy has a black
150
00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:52,480
hole that's 40 times smaller
than it should be.
151
00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:56,920
It's the only big Galaxy.
It's got such a tiny central
152
00:09:56,960 --> 00:09:59,560
black hole.
And it's because we've had no
153
00:09:59,560 --> 00:10:03,880
major merger event or the dwarf
Galaxy in the last 11 billion
154
00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:06,200
years.
And we have such a tiny black
155
00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:08,640
hole.
And what's interesting too is
156
00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:13,160
you go back a million, 2,000,000
years ago it was consuming big
157
00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:17,760
asteroid and comet like bodies.
Today it's consuming tiny ones.
158
00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:23,520
And so during the human era, we
have a very quiet small black
159
00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:27,440
hole in its core.
And likewise, the Andromeda
160
00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:31,280
Galaxy, which is another big
spiral Galaxy, It's super
161
00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:34,880
massive black hole is the right
size, 40 times bigger than one
162
00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:38,080
in our Milky Way Galaxy.
But currently it's in the
163
00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:42,120
quietest space it's ever been.
And if it wasn't, we wouldn't be
164
00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:44,240
able to have this podcast
really.
165
00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:47,000
And likewise, you look at all
the other super massive black
166
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:49,840
holes in the vicinity of our
Milky Way Galaxy.
167
00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:56,840
It's all designed in such a way
that we can safely exist here on
168
00:10:56,840 --> 00:11:00,840
planet Earth.
And yet many of the elements in
169
00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:04,640
your body that are essential for
you to live, they're only
170
00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:08,520
constructed when neutron stars
merge together to become black
171
00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:10,840
holes.
So if you don't get adequately
172
00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:15,080
exposed our solar system to
black holes when it's forming,
173
00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:19,000
we won't have the heavy elements
you need to have human beings.
174
00:11:19,680 --> 00:11:23,600
And so everywhere we look with
black holes, we see it's all
175
00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:27,680
amazingly designed so that we
can thrive at this moment in
176
00:11:27,680 --> 00:11:29,880
cosmic history here on planet
Earth.
177
00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:34,840
And yet many of the elements in
your body that are essential for
178
00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:38,880
you to live, they're only
constructed when neutron stars
179
00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:40,960
merge together to become black
holes.
180
00:11:41,560 --> 00:11:45,440
So if you don't get adequately
exposed our solar system to
181
00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:49,040
black holes when it's forming,
we won't have the heavy elements
182
00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:53,640
you need to have human beings.
And so everywhere we look with
183
00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:57,680
black holes, we see it's all
amazingly designed so that we
184
00:11:57,680 --> 00:12:01,560
can thrive at this moment in
cosmic history here on planet
185
00:12:01,560 --> 00:12:04,200
Earth.
And that also speaks to not just
186
00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:07,760
our life, but the life of of
hundreds, if not thousands of
187
00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:11,320
other worlds that are enjoying
the same propitious environment
188
00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:15,600
that allows life to exist.
And, and it is a delicate
189
00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:18,400
process indeed.
Let me read to you just a couple
190
00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:22,680
more paragraphs from paper 58 on
the life establishment of our
191
00:12:22,680 --> 00:12:24,280
world.
They write the Earth's
192
00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:28,120
atmosphere is all but opaque to
much of your solar radiation.
193
00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:31,080
At the extreme ultraviolet end
of the spectrum.
194
00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:35,040
Most of these short wavelengths
are absorbed by a layer of ozone
195
00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:38,760
which exists through throughout
a level about 10 miles above the
196
00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:42,440
surface of the Earth and which
extends space work for another
197
00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:46,000
10 miles.
The ozone permeating this region
198
00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:49,400
at condition prevailing on the
Earth's surface would make a
199
00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:52,200
layer only 110th of an inch
thick.
200
00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:56,440
Nevertheless, this relatively
small and apparently
201
00:12:56,440 --> 00:13:00,800
insignificant amount of ozone
protects Urantia inhabitants
202
00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:03,520
from the excess of these
dangerous and destructive
203
00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:06,800
ultraviolet radiations present
in sunlight.
204
00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:11,120
But were this ozone layer just A
trifle thicker, you would be
205
00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:14,720
deprived of all the highly
important and health giving
206
00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:19,360
ultraviolet rays which now reach
the Earth's surface, and which
207
00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:23,440
are ancestral to one of the most
essential of your vitamins.
208
00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:27,680
And yet some of the less
imaginative of your mortal
209
00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:32,240
mechanists insist on viewing
material creation and human
210
00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:37,120
evolution as an accident.
The Uranch Midwayers have
211
00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:42,000
assembled over 50,000 facts of
physics and chemistry which they
212
00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:45,880
deemed to be incompatible with
the laws of accidental chance,
213
00:13:46,520 --> 00:13:50,160
and which they contend
unmistakably demonstrate the
214
00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:54,200
presence of intelligence,
purpose or intelligent purpose
215
00:13:54,400 --> 00:14:00,560
in the material creation.
Your Son pours forth a veritable
216
00:14:00,560 --> 00:14:04,840
flood of death dealing rays, and
your pleasant life on your
217
00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:09,280
rancher is due to the fortuitous
influence of more than two
218
00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:13,880
score, apparently accidental
protective operations similar to
219
00:14:13,880 --> 00:14:16,920
the actions of this unique ozone
layer.
220
00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:20,080
Were it not for the blanketing
effect of the atmosphere at
221
00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:24,560
night, heat would be lost by
radiation so rapidly that life
222
00:14:24,560 --> 00:14:28,160
would be impossible of
maintenance except by artificial
223
00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:34,120
provision, Essentially all
corroborating one another that
224
00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:36,400
this is a grand design.
It's not accidental.
225
00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:41,760
And I hope that that's
convincing to you to consider
226
00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:45,440
that what that scientist says
with your rancher book puts out
227
00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:49,000
tells us that we live in a in a
carefully orchestrated
228
00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:53,160
existence, certainly not one
that is a result of accidental
229
00:14:53,160 --> 00:14:55,800
causation.
So we have a little bit of fun

Until next time, thanks for
joining me on the Urantia Radio
233
00:15:08,720 --> 00:16:00,550
Podcast.
The.
00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:04,040
One of the arguments against
faith is the story of creation
2
00:00:04,040 --> 00:00:08,920
is inconsistent with science.
Science says they can prove that
3
00:00:08,920 --> 00:00:12,640
evolution exists, but
religionists argue that the
4
00:00:12,640 --> 00:00:17,320
story of Adam is merely stating
that God is a grand designer and
5
00:00:17,320 --> 00:00:20,880
the story of creation is but an
abbreviated narrative that
6
00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:25,520
covers a long stretch of time.
OK, so how do we reconcile
7
00:00:25,520 --> 00:00:29,360
creation with modern science and
why is it important?
8
00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:34,520
It's important because people
who believe we are endowed or
9
00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:39,400
designed by our creator are in
fact marginalized by the secular
10
00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:43,360
view of creation, which of
course is accidental causation.
11
00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:47,120
Hence we have The Big Bang
theory, which has been the
12
00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:51,320
dominant theory in education in
the West for at least 100 years,
13
00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:56,080
which most non religious people
believe is that life arose
14
00:00:56,080 --> 00:01:01,880
spontaneously without any help
from any kind of guiding hand or
15
00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:04,720
as Bill Gates would say.
I mean, you believe in science,
16
00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:06,480
don't you?
I mean, what are we talking
17
00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:08,400
about here?
Do you believe in science or
18
00:01:08,400 --> 00:01:10,760
not?
And that's the attitude of most
19
00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:13,400
scientists today.
OK, so let's take on the
20
00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:16,080
challenge.
Let's say that scientists are
21
00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:19,840
right and that all the universe
did come from an instantaneous
22
00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:23,880
Big Bang that would, from a
single energy system, contain
23
00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:28,640
all of the potentials of life.
Would this hypothesis negate the
24
00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:33,600
need of a divine or enormously
advanced being of enormous
25
00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:36,480
intelligence?
What proof would there need to
26
00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:40,800
be to prove intelligent design?
Now, if this is a question upon
27
00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:44,040
which your faith depends, then
you'll want to stick around
28
00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:46,920
because that's exactly what
we're going to talk about on
29
00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:49,680
this episode of the Rancher
Radio Podcast.
30
00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:53,040
Now to my friends who enjoy this
program, thank you.
31
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:56,320
Our audience has grown 22% from
last year.
32
00:01:56,840 --> 00:02:01,000
People from 42 countries are now
listening to this podcast on a
33
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:04,200
regular basis, which means
people are interested in knowing
34
00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:06,160
more about the Urantia book
Revelation.
35
00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:10,560
And that's why we're here.
Hang on, if you travel and you
36
00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:14,840
want to save money, keep things
simple, then I highly recommend
37
00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:17,840
you use the sponsor of this
program, Low Cost Air.
38
00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:21,840
It's not a website, it's a phone
call and a real human who books
39
00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:24,120
your flight looking for the
lowest price.
40
00:02:24,640 --> 00:02:26,560
Here's the number and you may
want to write it down.
41
00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:33,840
It's 800-654-0759.
Again, 800-654-0759.
42
00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:57,200
I thought we could have some fun
with science in the Urantia
43
00:02:57,200 --> 00:02:59,760
book.
You know, one of the criticisms
44
00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:02,400
of the Urantia book is that it
doesn't appear altogether
45
00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:06,000
scientific.
And I was listening and scanning
46
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:08,000
some information.
I'll play a little bit later.
47
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:11,080
There's a scientist, obviously
an astronomer has a lot of
48
00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:15,080
knowledge about the way the the
Galaxy works and functions.
49
00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:18,400
He's going to come along and,
and, and I'll play a clip for
50
00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:23,520
you where he describes how black
holes are evidence of God's
51
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:25,360
creation.
And the way that he explains it
52
00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:28,840
is, is very interesting.
And it also substantiates what I
53
00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:31,440
was reading today in, in the
opening of where it talks about
54
00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:33,760
the beginnings of life on our
world.
55
00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:36,440
And one of the, one of the
comments that it makes, and I
56
00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:38,280
wanted to address it real
quickly here.
57
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:41,400
I, I ran across this statement
where it talks about how the
58
00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:45,200
life carriers had to introduce a
life form that could be
59
00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:48,440
sustained on our world based on
the design of, of our
60
00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:51,480
environment.
And there was a, a statement
61
00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:56,040
that said all ancestral life,
vegetable and animal evolved in
62
00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:59,680
a salt solution habitat.
And even the more highly
63
00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:03,240
organized land animals could not
continue to live did not the
64
00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:07,240
same essential salt solution
circulate throughout their
65
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:11,400
bodies in the bloodstreams which
freely bathed literally
66
00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:15,440
submerses every tiny living cell
in this briny deep?
67
00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:18,920
So that's the quote from the
Urantia book talking about how
68
00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:23,400
we have the salt in our bodies
and that all life on Earth
69
00:04:23,840 --> 00:04:27,000
originated from a salt solution
habitat.
70
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:31,840
Sodium chloride was introduced
and projected to be the chemical
71
00:04:31,840 --> 00:04:35,720
substance that the life carriers
would use when they introduced
72
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:39,640
life on our planet.
Again, God, God's design.
73
00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:45,000
I was curious about that quote
and I wanted to, I wanted to get
74
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:47,360
confirmation if that statement
is true.
75
00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:51,320
The statement that says that all
ancestral life, vegetable and
76
00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:54,440
animal evolved in a salt
solution habitat.
77
00:04:55,560 --> 00:05:01,120
And so I, I did a Google search
on this and I, I was confirmed.
78
00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:03,480
The statement is actually
factual.
79
00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:08,600
In fact, AI says the statement
is broadly factual with a few
80
00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:12,920
scientific clarifications.
The response says why it's
81
00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:14,960
essentially true.
That statement that all our
82
00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:18,840
early life involved evolved in a
salt water environment.
83
00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:23,560
It states the earliest light
life forms we know arose in
84
00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:25,320
Earth's ocean, which are salt
water.
85
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:28,880
This is supported by geology,
biology, and evolutionary
86
00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:32,240
science.
The oceans provided the chemical
87
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:36,840
stability required for early
biochemistry, so the claim that
88
00:05:36,840 --> 00:05:42,160
all ancestral life evolved in a
salt solution habitat is
89
00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:45,520
factually correct.
Number 2, The eternal fluids of
90
00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:49,200
land animals are chemically
similar to ancient seawater.
91
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:54,200
Vertebrate blood plasma and
interstitial fluid contain
92
00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:59,520
sodium, chloride, potassium,
calcium, magnesium,
93
00:05:59,920 --> 00:06:04,400
biocarbonate.
These electrolyte concentrations
94
00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:07,120
mirror the chemistry of early
oceans.
95
00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:11,280
Scientists often say mammals
carry the ocean within them.
96
00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:16,960
Life moved on to land but
retained an internal an internal
97
00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:22,160
ocean like salt environment for
its cells #3 All complex land
98
00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:25,280
animals require a salt based
internal medium.
99
00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:30,120
Every cell in a vertebrate body
is immersed in interstitial
100
00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:35,360
fluid which is a salt solution.
Muscles, nerves and metabolism
101
00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:37,800
all depend on electrolyte
gradients.
102
00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:41,800
Without salt solution, nerves
cannot fire, muscles cannot
103
00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:46,640
contract, cells cannot regulate
water, blood cannot transport
104
00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:49,080
nutrients.
So the statement that land
105
00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:52,440
animals could not continue to
live without this salt solution
106
00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:57,000
circulating throughout their
bodies is also biologically
107
00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:02,680
correct.
So in essence, the statement in
108
00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:04,720
the Oranja book is absolutely
true.
109
00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:10,400
And the paper that I'm referring
to, paper 58 section one, goes
110
00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:14,200
on to say that your primitive
ancestors freely circulated
111
00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:18,440
about in the salty ocean.
Today the same ocean like salty
112
00:07:18,440 --> 00:07:22,480
solution freely circulates about
in your bodies, bathing each
113
00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:27,080
individual cell with a chemical
liquid in all essentials
114
00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:30,800
comparable to the salt water
which stimulated the first
115
00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:35,280
protoplasmic reactions of the
first living cells to function
116
00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:40,440
on the planet.
And that's the explanation of
117
00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:46,240
early life forms and what they
projected as what they call the
118
00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:49,800
life carriers projected a sodium
chloride pattern of life.
119
00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:53,880
But it also adds that the life
carriers had to patiently wait
120
00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:57,880
until the the oceans became
sufficiently briny.
121
00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:02,680
And that took a long, long time,
hundreds of millions of years,
122
00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:05,640
in fact.
Another interesting thing that
123
00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:11,400
leads to this sound bite that
I'll play is the this idea of of
124
00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:15,800
how the universe is constructed.
Now, the Urantia book says that
125
00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:20,360
these dark islands of space,
which is how it refers to it in
126
00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:24,760
the 30s when the Urantia book
was written, we call them black
127
00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:28,480
holes, dark islands of space and
black holes are essentially the
128
00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:30,560
same thing.
They're they're they're dark,
129
00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:34,360
you can't see them and they have
immense gravity.
130
00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:38,880
And in part because many of
these dark islands or or black
131
00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:43,080
holes have different origins.
Some are of former sons that
132
00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:47,720
have condensed and becomes so
heavy with iron that they, they,
133
00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:51,520
the gravitational pull actually
pulls in mass from the
134
00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:53,960
surrounding area in that cosmic
neighborhood.
135
00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:59,520
And I'm not sure who this man
is, but the Urantia book states
136
00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:03,600
everything that this man is
saying here in the year 2025,
137
00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:07,120
thanks to our telescopes and all
of our survey equipment.
138
00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:10,960
And it corroborates what the
Urantia book was writing about
139
00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:13,200
in 1934.
So I want you to take a listen
140
00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:15,000
to this.
It's, it's a little bit long,
141
00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:20,320
but it's it's really a scientist
saying that there's no way, no,
142
00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:24,800
absolutely no way that all of
the universe is accidental
143
00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:27,880
causation.
Take a take a listen to this.
144
00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:32,240
Black holes is evidence of God's
care making the point that we're
145
00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:35,560
living in a Galaxy.
You have to be living in a big
146
00:09:35,560 --> 00:09:38,880
spiral Galaxy for advanced light
to be possible.
147
00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:42,520
But the bigger the Galaxy, the
bigger the black hole at its
148
00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:44,840
core and the more dangerous it
is.
149
00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:49,920
But for a variety of reasons,
our Milky Way Galaxy has a black
150
00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:52,480
hole that's 40 times smaller
than it should be.
151
00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:56,920
It's the only big Galaxy.
It's got such a tiny central
152
00:09:56,960 --> 00:09:59,560
black hole.
And it's because we've had no
153
00:09:59,560 --> 00:10:03,880
major merger event or the dwarf
Galaxy in the last 11 billion
154
00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:06,200
years.
And we have such a tiny black
155
00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:08,640
hole.
And what's interesting too is
156
00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:13,160
you go back a million, 2,000,000
years ago it was consuming big
157
00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:17,760
asteroid and comet like bodies.
Today it's consuming tiny ones.
158
00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:23,520
And so during the human era, we
have a very quiet small black
159
00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:27,440
hole in its core.
And likewise, the Andromeda
160
00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:31,280
Galaxy, which is another big
spiral Galaxy, It's super
161
00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:34,880
massive black hole is the right
size, 40 times bigger than one
162
00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:38,080
in our Milky Way Galaxy.
But currently it's in the
163
00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:42,120
quietest space it's ever been.
And if it wasn't, we wouldn't be
164
00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:44,240
able to have this podcast
really.
165
00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:47,000
And likewise, you look at all
the other super massive black
166
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:49,840
holes in the vicinity of our
Milky Way Galaxy.
167
00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:56,840
It's all designed in such a way
that we can safely exist here on
168
00:10:56,840 --> 00:11:00,840
planet Earth.
And yet many of the elements in
169
00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:04,640
your body that are essential for
you to live, they're only
170
00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:08,520
constructed when neutron stars
merge together to become black
171
00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:10,840
holes.
So if you don't get adequately
172
00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:15,080
exposed our solar system to
black holes when it's forming,
173
00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:19,000
we won't have the heavy elements
you need to have human beings.
174
00:11:19,680 --> 00:11:23,600
And so everywhere we look with
black holes, we see it's all
175
00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:27,680
amazingly designed so that we
can thrive at this moment in
176
00:11:27,680 --> 00:11:29,880
cosmic history here on planet
Earth.
177
00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:34,840
And yet many of the elements in
your body that are essential for
178
00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:38,880
you to live, they're only
constructed when neutron stars
179
00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:40,960
merge together to become black
holes.
180
00:11:41,560 --> 00:11:45,440
So if you don't get adequately
exposed our solar system to
181
00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:49,040
black holes when it's forming,
we won't have the heavy elements
182
00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:53,640
you need to have human beings.
And so everywhere we look with
183
00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:57,680
black holes, we see it's all
amazingly designed so that we
184
00:11:57,680 --> 00:12:01,560
can thrive at this moment in
cosmic history here on planet
185
00:12:01,560 --> 00:12:04,200
Earth.
And that also speaks to not just
186
00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:07,760
our life, but the life of of
hundreds, if not thousands of
187
00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:11,320
other worlds that are enjoying
the same propitious environment
188
00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:15,600
that allows life to exist.
And, and it is a delicate
189
00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:18,400
process indeed.
Let me read to you just a couple
190
00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:22,680
more paragraphs from paper 58 on
the life establishment of our
191
00:12:22,680 --> 00:12:24,280
world.
They write the Earth's
192
00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:28,120
atmosphere is all but opaque to
much of your solar radiation.
193
00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:31,080
At the extreme ultraviolet end
of the spectrum.
194
00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:35,040
Most of these short wavelengths
are absorbed by a layer of ozone
195
00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:38,760
which exists through throughout
a level about 10 miles above the
196
00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:42,440
surface of the Earth and which
extends space work for another
197
00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:46,000
10 miles.
The ozone permeating this region
198
00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:49,400
at condition prevailing on the
Earth's surface would make a
199
00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:52,200
layer only 110th of an inch
thick.
200
00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:56,440
Nevertheless, this relatively
small and apparently
201
00:12:56,440 --> 00:13:00,800
insignificant amount of ozone
protects Urantia inhabitants
202
00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:03,520
from the excess of these
dangerous and destructive
203
00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:06,800
ultraviolet radiations present
in sunlight.
204
00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:11,120
But were this ozone layer just A
trifle thicker, you would be
205
00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:14,720
deprived of all the highly
important and health giving
206
00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:19,360
ultraviolet rays which now reach
the Earth's surface, and which
207
00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:23,440
are ancestral to one of the most
essential of your vitamins.
208
00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:27,680
And yet some of the less
imaginative of your mortal
209
00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:32,240
mechanists insist on viewing
material creation and human
210
00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:37,120
evolution as an accident.
The Uranch Midwayers have
211
00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:42,000
assembled over 50,000 facts of
physics and chemistry which they
212
00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:45,880
deemed to be incompatible with
the laws of accidental chance,
213
00:13:46,520 --> 00:13:50,160
and which they contend
unmistakably demonstrate the
214
00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:54,200
presence of intelligence,
purpose or intelligent purpose
215
00:13:54,400 --> 00:14:00,560
in the material creation.
Your Son pours forth a veritable
216
00:14:00,560 --> 00:14:04,840
flood of death dealing rays, and
your pleasant life on your
217
00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:09,280
rancher is due to the fortuitous
influence of more than two
218
00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:13,880
score, apparently accidental
protective operations similar to
219
00:14:13,880 --> 00:14:16,920
the actions of this unique ozone
layer.
220
00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:20,080
Were it not for the blanketing
effect of the atmosphere at
221
00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:24,560
night, heat would be lost by
radiation so rapidly that life
222
00:14:24,560 --> 00:14:28,160
would be impossible of
maintenance except by artificial
223
00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:34,120
provision, Essentially all
corroborating one another that
224
00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:36,400
this is a grand design.
It's not accidental.
225
00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:41,760
And I hope that that's
convincing to you to consider
226
00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:45,440
that what that scientist says
with your rancher book puts out
227
00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:49,000
tells us that we live in a in a
carefully orchestrated
228
00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:53,160
existence, certainly not one
that is a result of accidental
229
00:14:53,160 --> 00:14:55,800
causation.
