I found The Universal Religion in a crucial moment in my life, when I was having serious problems at work and with close associates, and it helped me to transform myself as I saw myself in the wider context of my eternal career as a cherished son of God. For a long time I kept it on my bedside table because it was really enriching to read a passage every night. I even translated some parts into Spanish for my family and close friends and believe that the book should be translated into other languages.
The Universal Religion mentions The Urantia Book as an inspiration, but nothing made me believe that it was trying to sell The Uranita Book. The author just wants to acknowledge source material.

I very much recommend the book to anyone looking for meaning and inspiration. It's had a strong impact on me.

I found the Universal Religion to be amazingly easy to read, yet full of complex ideas laid out in a simple and clear manner. The book was inspiring and thought-provoking. I feel that I am a better person after having read the book. I thank the author, and hope he keeps up the good work!

This is a good book to give to people who have a hard time with formal religion and need to know that God loves them. Make sure you get them familiar to the Urantia Book first though, otherwise it reads like a huge add for it, or a pre-UB recruitment book. Oh, and if you don't like the UB, stay away. You won't enjoy this book. I didn't. It felt contrived.
