Just as a bit of counterpoint to your comments:

FROM THE URANTIA BOOK

15:2.2 There are seven superuniverses in the grand universe, and they are constituted approximately as follows:

15:2.3 1. The System. The basic unit of the supergovernment consists of about one thousand inhabited or inhabitable worlds. Blazing suns, cold worlds, planets too near the hot suns, and other spheres not suitable for creature habitation are not included in this group. These one thousand worlds adapted to support life are called a system, but in the younger systems only a comparatively small number of these worlds may be inhabited. Each inhabited planet is presided over by a Planetary Prince, and each local system has an architectural sphere as its headquarters and is ruled by a System Sovereign.



15:2.4 2. The Constellation. One hundred systems (about 100,000 inhabitable planets) make up a constellation. Each constellation has an architectural headquarters sphere and is presided over by three Vorondadek Sons, the Most Highs. Each constellation also has a Faithful of Days in observation, an ambassador of the Paradise Trinity.



15:2.5 3. The Local Universe. One hundred constellations (about 10,000,000 inhabitable planets) constitute a local universe. Each local universe has a magnificent architectural headquarters world and is ruled by one of the co-ordinate Creator Sons of God of the order of Michael. Each universe is blessed by the presence of a Union of Days, a representative of the Paradise Trinity.



15:2.6 4. The Minor Sector. One hundred local universes (about 1,000,000,000 inhabitable planets) constitute a minor sector of the superuniverse government; it has a wonderful headquarters world, wherefrom its rulers, the Recents of Days, administer the affairs of the minor sector. There are three Recents of Days, Supreme Trinity Personalities, on each minor sector headquarters.



15:2.7 5. The Major Sector. One hundred minor sectors (about 100,000,000,000 inhabitable worlds) make one major sector. Each major sector is provided with a superb headquarters and is presided over by three Perfections of Days, Supreme Trinity Personalities.



15:2.8 6. The Superuniverse. Ten major sectors (about 1,000,000,000,000 inhabitable planets) constitute a superuniverse. Each superuniverse is provided with an enormous and glorious headquarters world and is ruled by three Ancients of Days.



15:2.9 7. The Grand Universe. Seven superuniverses make up the present organized grand universe, consisting of approximately seven trillion inhabitable worlds plus the architectural spheres and the one billion inhabited spheres of Havona. The superuniverses are ruled and administered indirectly and reflectively from Paradise by the Seven Master Spirits. The billion worlds of Havona are directly administered by the Eternals of Days, one such Supreme Trinity Personality presiding over each of these perfect spheres.



15:2.10 Excluding the Paradise-Havona spheres, the plan of universe organization provides for the following units:

Superuniverses. . . . . . . . . . . . 7

Major sectors . . . . . . . . . . . .70

Minor sectors . . . . . . . . . . 7,000

Local universes . . . . . . . . 700,000

Constellations. . . . . . . .70,000,000

Local systems . . . . . . 7,000,000,000

Inhabitable planets . 7,000,000,000,000



15:2.11 Each of the seven superuniverses is constituted, approximately, as follows:

One system embraces, approximately . . . . . . . . 1,000 worlds

One constellation (100 systems). . . . . . . . . 100,000 worlds

One universe (100 constellations). . . . . . .10,000,000 worlds

One minor sector (100 universes) . . . . . 1,000,000,000 worlds

One major sector (100 minor sectors) . . 100,000,000,000 worlds

One superuniverse (10 major sectors) . 1,000,000,000,000 worlds



15:2.12 All such estimates are approximations at best, for new systems are constantly evolving while other organizations are temporarily passing out of material existence.

Tiger, you may consider the Urantia Book to be wild speculation , Creative Writing or whatever.

Whereas, I view your comments as earthbound calculation driving wild speculation based on the infinitesmally small viewpoint of the ego-driven self-contraction.

I have NO IDEA of the accuracy of THE URANTIA BOOK, but if anyone actually bothers to read it they will learn an astonishingly great amount that exceeds the sum total of all writen Science fiction by maybe a factor of 1000. Or so.

Written by many authors, with observably different writing styles, yet with utter consistency amongst them, relative to the message.

Try that even on your SCIENTIFIC material!

Namaste!

Jim
