Hey Deb,

From what I understand from the UB, God DOES do whatever he can to communicate with us - normal worlds have a resident Adam and Eve, have a Planetary Prince, have temples to the Father and a Garden of Eden. People don't have to search and search in the darkness for God - he is there from the get-go. On this really messed up planet, we have bupkus...and it is hard to navigate the spiritual life here.
Yes - read all about Lucifer, and the defult of our Adam and Eve. You'll get a real clear understanding of just why things are the way they are here. It is not God's fault, and it is not your fault, and it's not my fault, but it is what it is, and we are still paying the price for others' misdeeds.
We do need answers - at least I do, and that is why The UB has been such a gift to my life. Just understanding WHY things are so hard here helps to make it better...
BUT - there is a silver lining. Did you know that many celestial beings actually ENVY the mortals of Urantia? They envy that we get to forge out our faith in God through experience, because that means that once we get it, it is ours forever. We EARN our faith and we EARN our eternal life as few other planetary mortals do. We are called agondonters:
50:7.2 On Jerusem the ascenders from these isolated worlds occupy a residential sector by themselves and are known as the agondonters, meaning evolutionary will creatures who can believe without seeing, persevere when isolated, and triumph over insuperable difficulties even when alone.
Other beings think we are pretty darn special.
So, even when it is hard and frustrating, hang in there, and keep up the good fight. You are worth it, and the reward is worth it...
