Midwayer Thomas: “On [[the worlds]] of [[time and space]], [[the Gods]] are working on a new kind of [[perfection]], different to God’s [[fiat]] perfection, as [[revealed]] in the celestial Sons and Daughters of the [[Central Universe]]. In their vast realms of time and space, the Gods are playing the [[evolutionary]] game, starting from imperfection in the lowest of animal life, and evolving it through [[experience]] into [[becoming]] the perfected beings now enlarging the [[Corps of Finality]] on [[Paradise]]. Indeed, evolution is highly effective, but at times very difficult to [[understand]]. Among these obscure aspects of evolution, [[wars]] are perhaps the paramount [[puzzle]] for [[human beings]].

“The [[genesis of war]]s are conflicts through which the fittest [[survives]] by overcoming an [[adverse]] environment and other [[competitive]] beings. On [[Urantia]], [[the primates]] were the species to finally reach a stage in evolution that prompted the [[Universal Father]] to bestow upon them their human [[personality]]. Conflicts, which made possible the [[ascent]] of the human race, were also to become a factor in its very enhancement. Wars among [[primitive humans]] became ingrained in human nature, and were even [[expected]]. The appearance of the six colors of races on all [[evolutionary worlds]] was designed to make natural [[belligerence]] in human [[instinct]] work for their very [[progress]].

“Evolution alone does not produce God’s [[intent]] for the evolutionary worlds. Without [[divine]] [[participation]], evolutionary beings could at best be superior [[animals]], but still animals without [[free will]] – slaves to ancestral causation. Evolution is a divine [[method]] to bring life into the domains of the Michaels – the [[Creator Sons]] of God. The spiritual government and racial upsteppers provided by universes’ local systems intervene, and conduct evolution beyond the animal level, to produce the spiritual offspring of God. The [[local universe Sons]] advance human beings in this direction, for during each [[dispensation]] humankind is taught to love each other by [[doing the will of the Father]].

“Your [[past]] experiences show that local [[conflicts]] become potential worldwide [[wars]]. Siding with nations supporting opposing sides of local conflicts, increases the risk of worldwide escalation. Humanitarian reasons are [[noble]], but ineffective in stopping wars. Replace them with [[ethical]] reasons showing that wars now are, besides being unnecessary, [[cruel]], immoral, and quite [[suicidal]] to your [[civilization]]. Have you totally lost your [[confidence]] in the power of [[dialogue]], which has worked for you in the past, and is much more effective than [[bombs]]?
===Closing===
“I am Thomas, happy to [[sponsor]] this lesson. Remember the words that welcomed [[our Master]] to this world: ‘Peace and goodwill to all [[mankind]] on earth’”.
