Dear Trustees: 

David's second appeal must not be allowed to be ignored. 

This is a very serious matter that cannot be rationalized nor swept under 
the carpet.  I will personally appeal to you, as Trustees and servants of 
the Urantia community.  It is urgent that you respond. 

I am urging all Urantians who value their own freedom to likewise let 
their voices be heard. 

No one is safe - no one -  if one of us is under siege. 

Much Love, 

Larry Mullins

>>Dear Trustees of Urantia Foundation: 
>> 
>>In the spirit of the unity which you are attempting to foster, on two 
>>occassions during the past few months I have personally approached Mr. 
>>Keeler for the purpose of finding some means of bridging the personal and 
>>organizational gaps which exist between us.  The result was my endurance 
of 
>>several hours of severe psychological abuse -- one hour in March of this 
>>year and two hours several weeks later in April of this year. 
>> 
>>This psychological abuse consisted of a variety of threats made by Mr. 
>>Keeler against my personal and social self, as well as enduring his 
>>description, in excruciating detail, of his personal actions which have 
>>resulted in a variety of charges being brought against him in the past. 
>> 
>>Much of this is known to some of you.  I communicated to Mo and Gard 
>>immediately after the San Francisco encounter that Mr. Keeler had made 
>>statements which I took as serious threats against my life. They both 
urged 
>>me to attempt communicating further with Mr. Keeler for purposes of 
helping 
>>him get himself under better control.  I attempted to do so again at the 
>>April meeting, only to endure another two hours of abusive monologue from 
>>your President. 
>> 
>>Gentlemen, your effort cannot be advanced through coercion and force, be 
it 
>>legal, psychological, or even physical.  If you would be greatest among us 
>>you *must* serve us all. In these early years of your efforts I urge you 
to 
>>begin by placing your own house in order that it might adequately support 
>>the structure you indicate you wish to create.  Neither can you expect to 
>>gain the support of the readership for your efforts unless you can 
honestly 
>>and clearly demonstrate the moral, social and spiritual integrity of the 
>>foundations upon which you are asking us to help you build. 
>> 
>>I would like to request that you evaluate, per provisions of your bylaws, 
>>the conduct of your President in the situation which I have described, and 
>>either issue a written report to the readership explaining why, in spite 
of 
>>this and other serious problems reported over the years, you consider him 
>>well qualified to serve as President of Urantia Foundation, or take 
>>appropriate action to remedy the situation. 
>> 
>>I believe that an honest report on the matter described above -- and the 
>>taking of appropriate action if deemed necessary -- is an essential start 
>in 
>>establishing the baseline of credibility you need in order to gain the 
>>supportive confidence of the readership community. 
>>
