The June 2018 issue of Scientific American included a special report entitled "The Biggest Questions in Science," which was also published concurrently in Nature. What a fortunate coincidence that the editors of the two leading English-language scientific journals published a list of the most pressing questions facing the scientific community in time to be incorporated into the program for Urantia Foundation’s upcoming Science Symposium 2019.
This list of questions includes: What is spacetime? What is dark matter? How did life begin? What are the limits of manipulating nature? How much can we know? What is consciousness?
Urantia Foundation is hosting its second Science Symposium at 533 Diversey over the first weekend in November. Presentations and discussions will be addressing many of these questions in relationship with Urantia Book concepts.
All presentations and discussions will be live streamed to the public. The broadcasts will also be recorded for future viewing.
The program will be broadcast (streamed) at this link: https://video.ibm.com/channel/KNfDjjGhsgF

LIBRARY PLACEMENT OF URANTIA BOOKS
Are you familiar with our Library Placement Program?
Spread the teachings by placing The Urantia Book in libraries or alternative libraries.
For years readers have placed The Urantia Book in public libraries. Another library placement opportunity-the alternative library-remains untapped. Libraries in coffee shops, hotels, cruise ships, bed and breakfast inns, youth hostels, restaurants, truck stops, waiting rooms, nursing homes, churches and fraternity and sorority houses are the perfect spots for people to find The Urantia Book. So next time you stay at, or pass by, an establishment that has a library, place a copy of The Urantia Book on their library shelf.
