Papers are read.
A careful examination of the way biblical quotes were used indicates that they could not simply have been pulled out from a concordance, nor could computerized data bases been used as they were not available up to the time of publication of the book.
The science content of the Papers is extensive and demonstrates a wide ranging knowledge of physics and the biological sciences, some being of the kind normally held only by specialists in restricted fields.
The quality of some of the science component is supportive of my previous conjecture that these Urantia Papers are works of advanced scholars and certainly worthy of serious study--regardless of the question of their authorship or revelatory status.
When assessing the validity of any work, surely it is desirable to do so with an open mind, treating each as a part of our personal search for truth. With this attitude, truth becomes the overriding criterion of value.
