EVOLUTION OF THE
URANTIA’S PLANETARY LIFE INTRODUCTION All
the worlds of a local system disclose similar physical kinship, although,
each evolutionary planet
develops its own scale of life and not two worlds are exactly alike in plant
and animal endowment. In
the development of any planetary life the vegetable always precedes animal
and develops fully
before animal patterns appear and begin to differentiate. All
animal types always develop from the basic patterns of the preceding
vegetable kingdom; they
are not separately organized. Mortal
man is not an evolutionary accident because all life on all spheres of space
unfolds according
to the universal law. The process of the planetary evolution is orderly and
controlled from
lower groupings of life into higher organisms. Sometimes the evolutionary
progress is temporarily
delayed by the destruction of certain favorable lines of life plasma carried
in a selected
species and often it requires ages to recoup the damage occasioned by the
loss of a single
superior strain of human heredity. Therefore
the lines of these superior strains of living protoplasm should be always
carefully guarded
once they appear. BEGININGS
OF THE URANTIA’S PLANETARY LIFE On
Urantia, life begun as experimental type because it was initiated by modified
techniques from
those ordinarily used on most of the other planets. Urantia’s type of life is
also called decimal
planet life, because life of one in ten planets is always created by modified
techniques. There
are 619 inhabited planets just in our Local System which represents 61 of
them as decimal
or experimental planets. The
Urantia’s species have evolved, by general classifications of life, as the
atmospheric breathers
which begun as marine life which later became of land type. Urantians
are in the category of average gravitational height, mid-temperature group
with average
electric, magnetic and electronic behavior. The
planetary life type of protoplasm is of sodium chloride (NaCl) pattern
because all of ancestral
life on the planet such as plants and animals, evolved in a salt solution
habitat. Developing
mind of evolutionary man is mortal and can not survive without the bestowal
of the
immortal Father’s Spirit, because that spirit fragment of God the Father,
also called Thought
Adjuster originates the birth and evolution of the immortal eternal soul. The
physical life was originated on our planet 550 million years ago by Life
Carriers from Satania
Local System at the time when planetary conditions were ready for
implantation. At
that time original life patterns were organized and planted in hospitable
waters at three different
locations: central or Eurasian- African, eastern or Australasian and western
or On
Urantia, life was originated 550 million years ago in marine waters, by the
integrated action
of Life Carriers fabricating physical electrochemical energy circuits,
Physical Controllers
producing the suitable physical material units, and Holy Spirit of local
universe Divine
Minister initiating such primordial units into living existence. About
50 million years later primitive marine vegetable life was well established
on our planet. 450
million years ago the transition from vegetable to animal life occurred in
shallow waters of tropical
bays. Early
land life begun about 150 million years ago of which mammalian era occupies
last 50
million years, where early in this period, in manifest
with superior abilities for survival comparing to all other mammalian life. Placental
mammals were affectionate and protective, having superior-perpetuating
brain-power and
increased ability for escape from enemies, and have developed superior
intelligence for environmental adjustment and adaptation. About
1.5 million years ago, in the dawn of ice age, mammals appeared from the
older North American
lemurs and in their seventeen generation appeared mid-mammals whose third mutation
gave sudden appearance of Primates. At
the same time retrograde development within the mid- mammal stock gave origin
to the simian
(monkey) ancestry. From
that day on, because of these differences in forward and retrograde mutation
in mid-mammal
stock, human mammal branch has gone forward by progressive evolution, separating
and advancing itself from simian or monkey branch, which has remained stationary,
and since even retrogressed further. It
was 1 million years ago that mutation within this progressive Primate branch
suddenly produced
first primitive human beings which became the ancestors of all mankind. Finally
after 549 million years of a long drawn-out process of planetary evolution,
first primitive human
beings have evolved by mutation out of progressive Primate branch as the
first ancestors of
Urantia’s mankind. In this way, the life that was
planted on planet Urantia, has evolved until the ice age, when man himself
first appeared and begun his eventful planetary career. The rigors and
climatic severity of the glacial era were in
every way adapted to the purpose of fostering the production of a hardy type human being with
tremendous survival endowment. The appearance of the
primitive man on earth during the ice age, therefore, was not an evolutionary
accident but he has evolved purposefully from the created life design. CONCLUSION The
first organic unit of material life created was the protoplasmic cell which
communally associated
various chemical, electrical and other basic energies. This first primordial unit of
material life was brought into living existence by the creative function of the Life Carriers
which have generated physical electrochemical energy circuits within material particles
created by Physical Controllers and further catalyzed the “spark of life”
initiated by the Holly Spirit of the Divine Minister. The
chemical formulas used in creating the first protoplasmic cells differ for
each planetary system,
and therefore the techniques of living cell reproduction are slightly
different for each local
universe. In
any case the catalysts of the initial process, the Life Carriers are always
there to initiate the
primordial reactions of the material life as the catalytic instigators of the
energy circuits of living
matter. All
the worlds of a local system disclose similar physical kinship, however, each
evolutionary planet
develops its own scale of life and not two worlds are exactly alike in plant
and animal endowment. Decisions
about the type of systems variations in the planetary life are made after
studies of evolution
of planetary system by these Life Carrier catalysts. Evolutionary
life is initiated often in different number of planetary localities,
sometimes three as
it was on our planet of Urantia. In
the development of any planetary life the vegetable always precedes animal
and develops fully
before animal patterns appear and begin to differentiate. All animal types
always develop from
the basic patterns of the preceding vegetable kingdom; they are not
separately organized as
we could see from the narrative of this paper. The
process of the planetary evolution is orderly and controlled from lower
groupings of life into
higher organisms. Man’s
primordial ancestors were literally slime and ooze of the ocean bed in the
sluggish and
warm-water bays and lagoons of the vast shore lines of the ancient inland
seas. It
was the FROG which began that series of progressive differentiations in
animal life that finally
culminated in man himself. MAN
has evolved in Asian central to near-eastern regions from the higher mammals
derived principally
from the western location, out of certain western and central life strains of
the life implantation in the ancient east-west sheltered seas. Reference: The
