Why does URANTIA & its Philosophy give the most important answers to humanity's most important questions?

For example, it reveals realities such as this:

http://urantiabook.org/

(47.6) 3:2.8 The planetary creatures of God’s spirit indwelling, scattered hither and yon throughout the universes of space, are so nearly infinite in number and order, their intellects are so diverse, their minds are so limited and sometimes so gross, their vision is so curtailed and localized, that it is almost impossible to formulate generalizations of law adequately expressive of the Father’s infinite attributes and at the same time to any degree comprehensible to these created intelligences. Therefore, to you the creature, many of the acts of the all-powerful Creator seem to be arbitrary, detached, and not infrequently heartless and cruel. But again I assure you that this is not true. God’s doings are all purposeful, intelligent, wise, kind, and eternally considerate of the best good, not always of an individual being, an individual race, an individual planet, or even an individual universe; but they are for the welfare and best good of all concerned, from the lowest to the highest. In the epochs of time the welfare of the part may sometimes appear to differ from the welfare of the whole; in the circle of eternity such apparent differences are nonexistent.

    What questions is this the answer to ?

    Who is the author of this book ?

    Sounds more like someone created a justification for the "Creator" to account for humanity's pain and suffering experienced in this physical universe. That's the way it is.... you cannot understand or know , cos you're just a "creature".

    Hardly an explanation or answer to our own true spiritual nature and relationship with this universe and life itself. We were "created in the Father's image"... so we would all have the same potential" infinite attributes" and capacity to know all.

    If this philosophy just teaches acceptance and worship only and does not offer any hope or road towards change ,improvement and spiritual rehabilitation, and self help , then I will have to pass.

    I'm currently very satisfied with the answers I have already discovered and the understanding of life I have achieved through my current chosen religious philosophy. Also more than satisfied with it's workability in application to myself and others in terms of improving awareness, intelligence and ability and therefore helping to improve humanity.

    Because we want to those answers, don't we? I do. And the answers in the UB are VERY satisfying, logical and spiritually alluring to these ears.

    You pose this as a question - "why" is it that ... then you make what can only be called a statement. Kinda cheesy.
