Urantia Foundation tells us that they believe the Revelation was written by the authors listed in the book, but they tell the US Government Copyright Office a different story, that they, Urantia Foundation, authored the Revelation, and that it is "a work made for hire." Urantia Foundation, through its lawyers in a court of law, says, "...it's not a religious book", and that it's their "intellectual property." Urantia Foundation's Executive Director, Tonia Baney, has said in a court case in Hawaii that she doesn't know who authored the book. Urantia Foundation's attorneys have said in court that William Sadler, Jr. wrote parts of the book, and that only members of their organizations are allowed to wear the Banner of Michael, "the material emblem of the Trinity government of all creation" (53.5.4) -what Urantia Foundation refers to as their "collective membership mark". Urantia Foundation says that the word "Urantian" was coined from their name and that no one else is allowed to use it.  They say that they own the Banner of Michael and the word "Urantia", forever.  Jesus said, "Forbid him not.  Do you not perceive that this gospel of the kingdom shall presently be proclaimed in all the world? How can you expect that all who will believe the gospel shall be
subject to your direction? Rejoice that already our teaching has begun to manifest itself beyond the bounds of our personal influence." (159.2.1) But Urantia Foundation spits on His teachings when it says
you can't quote more than 1,000 words of Jesus, or any other part of God's Revelation to Urantia, without their permission.  Jesus said, "Be willing to suffer injustice rather than to go to law among yourselves" (140.3.14), but by its actions persecuting believers in court for spreading God's Revelation in their own way, Urantia Foundation spits on those teachings too. Urantia Foundation's "Declaration of Trust", their raison d'être, requires that they keep the text of the Urantia Revelation "inviolate", but for years they altered the text in virtual secrecy and without footnotes, even deleting words such as "in the manger" from page 1317, and have not printed an "inviolate" text book since 1967. Only after they were exposed in 1990 did they belatedly publish a separate list of the changes they made.  In Urantia Foundation's lawsuit against C.U.B.S., they denied having a "Principal Object", even though their Declaration of Trust clearly states that they do.


CONTACT THE TRUSTEES: <msiegel@ctea.com>, <rkeeler@allwest.net>, <kchoi@iastate.edu>, <georges.michelson-dupont@wanadoo.fr>, <gjameson@pbtk.com>, urantia@WWW.URANTIA.ORG

Ask the trustees to correct the lies on the copyright document which say the Revelation is "a work made for hire" and that the Foundation is the "Author." Ask them why no two printings match the original text, defaulting on their Declaration of Trust to keep the text "inviolate." Ask them what they think Jesus meant when he said, "Forbid him not. Do you not perceive that this gospel of the kingdom shall presently be proclaimed in all the world? How can you expect that all who will believe the gospel shall be subject to your direction? Rejoice that already our teaching has begun to manifest itself beyond the bounds of our personal influence." Ask them why they don't return to court and tell the judge: "Yes, your honor, it really IS a religious book. Our lawyers made a mistake." Ask them about the death threats against David Kantor and other alleged criminal activities. Ask Mo Siegel "What prevents Urantia Foundation from precisely speaking the truth about the book's unseen authors?"
