51:1.1 The [[material]] or [[sex]] Sons and Daughters are the [[offspring]] of the [[Creator Son]]; the [[Universe Mother Spirit]] does not [[participate]] in the production of these [[beings]] who are [[destined]] to [[function]] as [[physical]] uplifters on the [[evolutionary worlds]].
51:1.2 The [[material]] order of sonship is not [[uniform]] throughout the [[local universe]]. The [[Creator Son]] produces only one pair of these [[beings]] in each [[local system]]; these [[original]] pairs are [[diverse]] in [[nature]], being [[attuned]] to the life [[pattern]] of their respective [[the System|systems]]. This is a [[necessary]] provision since otherwise the [[reproductive]] [[potential]] of ''the Adams'' would be nonfunctional with that of the [[evolving]] [[mortal]] [[beings]] of the worlds of any one particular system. The [[Adam and Eve]] who came to [[Urantia]] were descended from the [[original]] [[Satania]] pair of ''Material Sons''.
51:1.3 Material Sons vary in height from eight to ten feet, and their [[bodies]] [[glow]] with the [[brilliance]] of [[radiant]] [[light]] of a [[violet]] [[hue]]. While [[material]] [http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood blood] [[circulates]] through their [[material]] [[bodies]], they are also surcharged with [[divine]] [[energy]] and [[saturated]] with [[celestial]] [[light]]. These ''Material Sons'' (the Adams) and Material Daughters (the Eves) are [[equal]] to each other, [[differing]] only in [[reproductive]] [[nature]] and in certain [[chemical]] [[endowments]]. They are [[equal]] but [[differential]], [[male]] and [[female]]—hence [[complemental]]—and are [[designed]] to serve on almost all assignments in pairs.
51:1.4 The Material Sons enjoy a [[dual]] [[nutrition]]; they are really dual in [[nature]] and [[constitution]], partaking of [[materialized]] [[energy]] much as do the [[physical]] [[beings]] of the realm, while their [[immortal]] [[existence]] is fully [[maintained]] by the direct and [[automatic]] intake of certain sustaining [[cosmic]] [[energies]]. Should they fail on some mission of assignment or even [[consciously]] and [[deliberately]] [[rebel]], this order of Sons becomes [[isolated]], cut off from [[connection]] with the [[universe]] [[source]] of [[light]] and life. Thereupon they become [[practically]] [[material]] [[beings]], destined to take the [[course]] of [[material]] life on the world of their assignment and compelled to look to the [[universe]] [[magistrates]] for [[adjudication]]. [[Material]] [[death]] will [[eventually]] terminate the [[planetary]] [[career]] of such an unfortunate and unwise ''Material Son or Daughter''.
51:1.5 An [[original]] or directly created [[Adam and Eve]] are [[immortal]] by [[inherent]] [[endowment]] just as are all other [[orders]] of [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_35 local universe sonship], but a diminution of [[immortality]] [[potential]] characterizes their sons and daughters. This [[original]] couple cannot [[transmit]] unconditioned [[immortality]] to their procreated [[Children|sons and daughters]].
