The title of the book, "Urantia," certainly suggests that is true.

I seem to remember looking at it breifly some years ago and concluding
it had no scientific or theological value. Of course, I might be
wrong.

Whether or not thr post was a "troll" is not within my expertise to
judge. Perhaps -- perhaps not. I would not prejudge. OTOH, I am too
skeptical of it to look at it, UNLESS someone here I respect (which is
most of the list) would endorse it as having some value.
