==PAPER 49: THE INHABITED WORLDS==   

49:0.1 All [[mortal]]-inhabited worlds are [[evolutionary]] in [[origin]] and [[nature]]. These [[spheres]] are the spawning ground, the [[evolutionary]] [[cradle]], of the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_64 mortal races] of [[time and space]]. Each [[unit]] of the [[ascendant]] life is a veritable [[training]] school for the [[stage]] of [[existence]] just ahead, and this is true of every [[stage]] of man's [[progressive]] [[Paradise]] [[ascent]]; just as true of the initial [[mortal]] [[experience]] on an [[evolutionary]] [[planet]] as of the final [[universe]] [[headquarters]] school of the [[Melchizedeks]], a school which is not attended by [[ascending mortals]] until just before their [[translation]] to the [[regime]] of the [[superuniverse]] and the [[attainment]] of first-stage [[spirit]] [[existence]].

49:0.2 All ''inhabited worlds'' are basically [[grouped]] for [[celestial]] [[administration]] into the [[local systems]], and each of these [[local systems]] is [[limited]] to about one thousand [[evolutionary]] worlds. This [[limitation]] is by the [[decree]] of the [[Ancients of Days]], and it pertains to [[actual]] [[evolutionary]] [[planets]] whereon [[mortals]] of [[survival]] [[status]] are living. Neither worlds finally settled in [[light and life]] nor [[planets]] in the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_61 prehuman stage of life] [[development]] are reckoned in this [[group]].

49:0.3 [[Satania]] itself is an unfinished system containing only 619 ''inhabited worlds''. Such [[planets]] are numbered serially in [[accordance]] with their registration as inhabited worlds, as worlds inhabited by [[Free will|will]] [[creatures]]. Thus was [[Urantia]] given the number 606 of [[Satania]], meaning the 606th world in this [[local system]] on which the long [[evolutionary]] life [[process]] culminated in the [[appearance]] of [[human beings]]. There are thirty-six uninhabited planets nearing the life-[[endowment]] stage, and several are now being made ready for the [[Life Carriers]]. There are nearly two hundred [[spheres]] which are evolving so as to be ready for [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_58 life implantation] within the next few million years.

49:0.4 Not all [[planets]] are suited to harbor [[mortal]] life. Small ones having a high rate of [[axial]] [[revolution]] are wholly unsuited for life [[habitat]]s. In several of the [[Solar system|physical systems]] of [[Satania]] the [[planets]] revolving around the central [[sun]] are too large for habitation, their great [[mass]] occasioning oppressive [[gravity]]. Many of these enormous [[spheres]] have [[satellites]], sometimes a half dozen or more, and these [[moon]]s are often in size very near that of [[Urantia]], so that they are almost [[ideal]] for habitation.

49:1.3 All the worlds of a [[local system]] disclose unmistakable [[physical]] [[kinship]]; nevertheless, each [[planet]] has its own [[scale]] of life, no two worlds being exactly alike in [[plant]] and [[animal]] [[endowment]]. These [[planetary]] variations in [[the system]] life [[types]] result from the [[decisions]] of the [[Life Carriers]]. But these [[beings]] are neither capricious nor whimsical; the [[universes]] are conducted in [[accordance]] with [[law]] and [[order]]. The [[laws]] of [[Nebadon]] are the [[divine]] [[mandates]] of [[Salvington]], and the [[evolutionary]] order of life in [[Satania]] is in [[consonance]] with the [[evolutionary]] [[pattern]] of [[Nebadon]].

49:1.4 [[Evolution]] [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Evolution_and_Religion,_M._Ruse] is the [[Law|rule]] of [[human]] [[development]], but the [[process]] itself varies greatly on [[different]] worlds. Life is sometimes [[initiated]] in one [[center]], sometimes in [[three]], as it was on [[Urantia]]. On the [[atmospheric]] worlds it usually has a [[marine]] [[origin]], but not always; much depends on the [[physical]] [[status]] of a [[planet]]. The [[Life Carriers]] have great [[latitude]] in their [[function]] of life [[initiation]].

49:1.5 In the [[development]] of [[planetary]] life the [[Plant|vegetable]] [[form]] always precedes the [[animal]] and is quite fully [[developed]] before the [[animal]] [[patterns]] [[differentiate]]. All [[animal]] [[types]] are [[developed]] from the basic [[patterns]] of the preceding vegetable kingdom of living [[things]]; they are not separately [[organized]].

All [[animal]] [[types]] are [[developed]] from the basic [[patterns]] of the preceding vegetable kingdom of living [[things]]; they are not separately [[organized]].

49:2.9 It is quite impossible for you to [[envisage]] the [[environment]] which prevails during the [[Primitive|early]] [[ages]] of some worlds. These unusual conditions make it [[necessary]] for the [[evolving]] [[animal]] life to remain in its [[marine]] [[nursery]] [[habitat]] for longer periods than on those [[planets]] which very early provide a [[hospitable]] [[land]]-and-[[atmosphere]] [[environment]]. Conversely, on some worlds of the ''superbreathers'', when the [[planet]] is not too large, it is sometimes expedient to provide for a [[mortal]] [[type]] which can readily negotiate [[atmospheric]] passage. These air [[navigators]] sometimes [[intervene]] between the [[water]] and [[land]] [[groups]], and they always live in a [[measure]] upon the ground, [[eventually]] evolving into [[land]] dwellers. But on some worlds, for [[ages]] they continue to fly even after they have become [[land]]-[[type]] [[beings]].

49:2.10 It is both [[amazing]] and [[Humor|amusing]] to [[observe]] the early [[civilization]] of a [[primitive]] [[race]] of [[human beings]] taking shape, in one case, in the [[air]] and treetops and, in another, midst the shallow [[waters]] of sheltered tropic basins, as well as on the bottom, sides, and shores of these [[marine]] [[gardens]] of the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_62 dawn races] of such extraordinary [[spheres]]. Even on [[Urantia]] there was a long age during which [[primitive]] man preserved himself and advanced his primitive [[civilization]] by living for the most part in the treetops as did his earlier [[arboreal]] [[ancestors]]. And on [[Urantia]] you still have a group of diminutive [[mammals]] (the [http://www.wikipedia.org/Bat bat] [[family]]) that are [[air]] [[navigators]], and your [http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seals seals] and [http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whales whales], of [[marine]] [[habitat]], are also of the [[Mammal|mammalian]] order.

49:2.11 In [[Satania]], of the ''elemental types'', seven per cent are [[water]], ten per cent [[air]], seventy per cent [[land]], and thirteen per cent combined land-and-air types. But these [[modifications]] of early [[intelligent]] [[creatures]] are neither [[human]] [http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fishes fishes] nor human [http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birds birds]. They are of the [[human]] and prehuman types, neither superfishes nor [[glorified]] birds but distinctly [[mortal]].

They are of the [[human]] and prehuman types, neither superfishes nor [[glorified]] birds but distinctly [[mortal]].

49:2.16 Of the [[electric]] [[groupings]] of [[mortal]] life, almost twenty-three per cent belong to class number four, the [[Urantia]] [[type]] of [[existence]]. These [[types]] are [[distributed]] as follows: number 1, one per cent; number 2, two per cent; number 3, five per cent; number 4, twenty-three per cent; number 5, twenty-seven per cent; number 6, twenty-four per cent; number 7, eight per cent; number 8, five per cent; number 9, three per cent; number 10, two per cent—in whole percentages.

49:2.17 6. ''The energizing types''. Not all worlds are alike in the [[manner]] of taking in [[energy]]. Not all inhabited worlds have an [[atmospheric]] [[ocean]] suited to [[respiratory]] exchange of [[gases]], such as is present on [[Urantia]]. During the earlier and the later [[stages]] of many [[planets]], [[beings]] of your present order could not exist; and when the [[respiratory]] [[factors]] of a [[planet]] are very high or very low, but when all other prerequisites to [[intelligent]] life are adequate, the [[Life Carriers]] often [[establish]] on such worlds a [[modified]] [[form]] of [[mortal]] [[existence]], [[beings]] who are competent to [[effect]] their life-[[process]] exchanges directly by means of [[light]]-[[energy]] and the firsthand [[power]] [[transmutations]] of the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_29#29:4._THE_MASTER_PHYSICAL_CONTROLLERS Master Physical Controllers].

49:2.18 There are six [[differing]] [[types]] of [[animal]] and [[mortal]] [[nutrition]]: The ''subbreathers'' employ the first type of [[nutrition]], the [[marine]] dwellers the second, the mid-breathers the third, as on [[Urantia]]. The ''superbreathers'' employ the fourth type of [[energy]] intake, while the ''nonbreathers'' utilize the fifth order of [[nutrition]] and [[energy]]. The sixth [[technique]] of energizing is [[limited]] to the [[midway creatures]].

The sixth [[technique]] of energizing is [[limited]] to the [[midway creatures]].

49:3.4 Life on the worlds of the ''nonbreathers'' is [[radically]] [[different]] from what it is on [[Urantia]]. The nonbreathers do not eat [[food]] or drink [[water]] as do the [[Urantia]] races. The [[reactions]] of the [[nervous system]], the [[heat]]-regulating [[mechanism]], and the [[metabolism]] of these specialized peoples are [[radically]] [[different]] from such [[functions]] of [[Urantia]] [[mortals]]. Almost every [[act]] of living, aside from [[reproduction]], differs, and even the [[methods]] of [[procreation]] are somewhat [[different]].

49:3.5 On the ''nonbreathing'' worlds the [[animal]] [[species]] are [[radically]] unlike those found on the [[atmospheric]] [[planets]]. The ''nonbreathing'' [[plan]] of life varies from the [[technique]] of [[existence]] on an [[atmospheric]] world; even in [[survival]] their peoples differ, being [[candidates]] for [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Ascending_sons#40:9._SPIRIT-FUSED_MORTALS Spirit fusion]. Nevertheless, these [[beings]] enjoy life and carry forward the [[activities]] of the realm with the same [[relative]] [[trials]] and [[joys]] that are [[experienced]] by the [[mortals]] living on [[atmospheric]] worlds. In [[mind]] and [[character]] the ''nonbreathers'' do not [[differ]] from other [[mortal]] [[types]].

49:3.6 You would be more than interested in the [[planetary]] [[conduct]] of this [[type]] of [[mortal]] because such a [[race]] of [[beings]] inhabits a [[sphere]] in close proximity to [[Urantia]].

49:4.1 There are great [[differences]] between the [[mortals]] of the different worlds, even among those belonging to the same [[intellectual]] and [[physical]] [[types]], but all [[mortals]] of [[Free will|will]] [[dignity]] are erect [[animals]], bipeds.

49:4.2 There are [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_64 six basic] [[evolutionary]] [[races]]: [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_64#64:6._THE_SIX_SANGIK_RACES_OF_URANTIA three primary—red, yellow, and blue; and three secondary—orange, green, and indigo].

Some [[local systems]] also have only these three races.

Some [[local systems]] also have only these three races.

49:4.3 The [[average]] special [[physical]]-[[sense]] [[endowment]] of [[human beings]] is twelve, though the special [[senses]] of the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_49#49:5._THE_PLANETARY_SERIES_OF_MORTALS three-brained mortals] are extended slightly beyond those of the one- and two-brained types; they can see and hear considerably more than the [[Urantia]] [[races]].

49:4.4 Young are usually born singly, multiple [[births]] being the exception, and the [[family]] life is fairly [[uniform]] on all [[types]] of [[planets]]. [[Sex]] [[equality]] prevails on all advanced worlds; [[male]] and [[female]] are [[equal]] in [[mind]] [[endowment]] and [[spiritual]] [[status]]. We do not regard a [[planet]] as having emerged from [[barbarism]] so long as one [[sex]] seeks to [[tyrannize]] over the other. This feature of [[creature]] [[experience]] is always greatly improved after the arrival of a [[Material Son and Daughter]].

[[Agriculture]] is [[universal]] on all [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_49#49:2._PLANETARY_PHYSICAL_TYPES atmospheric worlds]; tilling the [[soil]] is the one pursuit that is common to the advancing [[races]] of all such [[planets]].

49:4.6 [[Mortals]] all have the same general [[struggles]] with [[microscopic]] foes in their early days, such as you now [[experience]] on [[Urantia]], though perhaps not so extensive. The length of life varies on the [[different]] [[planets]] from twenty-five years on the [[primitive]] worlds to near five hundred on the more advanced and older [[spheres]].

49:5.3 1. ''Adjustment to planetary environment''. There are [[three]] general [[groups]] of inhabited worlds from the [[standpoint]] of the [[adjustment]] of [[creature]] life to the [[planetary]] [[environment]]: the [[normal]] adjustment group, the [[radical]] adjustment group, and the [[experimental]] group.

49:5.4 [[Normal]] [[adjustments]] to [[planetary]] conditions follow the general [[physical]] [[patterns]] previously [[considered]]. The worlds of the ''nonbreathers'' typify the [[radical]] or extreme [[adjustment]], but other [[types]] are also included in this [[group]]. [[Experimental]] worlds are usually [[ideally]] [[adapted]] to the typical life [[forms]], and on these [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_58#PAPER_58:_LIFE_ESTABLISHMENT_ON_URANTIA decimal planets] the [[Life Carriers]] attempt to produce beneficial variations in the [[standard]] life [[designs]]. Since your world is an [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_58#PAPER_58:_LIFE_ESTABLISHMENT_ON_URANTIA experimental planet], it differs markedly from its <u>sister spheres</u> in [[Satania]]; many [[forms]] of life have [[appeared]] on [[Urantia]] that are not found elsewhere; likewise are many common [[species]] [[absent]] from your [[planet]].

49:5.5 In the [[universe]] of [[Nebadon]], all the life-[[modification]] worlds are serially linked [[together]] and [[constitute]] a special [[domain]] of [[universe]] affairs which is given [[attention]] by designated [[administrators]]; and all of these [[experimental]] worlds are [[periodically]] inspected by a corps of universe directors whose chief is the [[veteran]] [[finaliter]] known in [[Satania]] as ''Tabamantia''.

49:5.8 While the [[terrestrial]] [[attainments]] of the one-brained races are slightly [[limited]] in [[comparison]] with the two-brained orders, the older [[planets]] of the three-brained [[group]] [[exhibit]] [[civilizations]] that would astound Urantians, and which would somewhat [[shame]] yours by [[comparison]]. In [[mechanical]] [[development]] and [[material]] [[civilization]], even in [[intellectual]] [[progress]], the two-brained mortal worlds are able to [[equal]] the three-brained spheres. But in the higher [[control]] of [[mind]] and [[development]] of [[intellectual]] and [[spiritual]] [[reciprocation]], you are somewhat inferior.

But in the higher [[control]] of [[mind]] and [[development]] of [[intellectual]] and [[spiritual]] [[reciprocation]], you are somewhat inferior.
