What does The Urantia Book say about the presence of evil in the world?
The Urantia Book describes two key setbacks in our planetary history, leadership defaults that explain much of the disorder that we see in the world today. These two events are referred to in the book as the “Lucifer rebellion” and the default of our Material Son and Daughter, Adam and Eve (though described with different roles than the Bible’s depiction of them as the first two human beings). Notwithstanding how material development was hindered by these two unfortunate incidents, according to The Urantia Book, individual human beings have still enjoyed all the avenues available to a normally developing planet for spiritual development.
