Yes. I used to own this book some years ago, and I
remember that I found it to be very fascinating indeed;
especially the long and detailed "biography" about
Jesus. Anyway, about that time I was seriously studying
the New Testament as well, and after a time I was able
to piece together a rough chronology of the NT
documents. This is important because it created a
problem for me. You see my NT time-line did not agree
with the Urantia Book's time-line at all. So I had to decide
which of the two I trusted more and why. After
considering the matter carefully I decided that my
time-line was more consistent with the textual evidence.
And that could only mean that the writers of the U-Book
were MORE ignorant about the NT history than I was!
Once I realized that, I never read the U-Book again,
and eventually dumped it on some far less critical
friends who thought it was interesting. :)

There are so much to say about this book so I'll just suggest you read the relevant wikipedia article:

Sure, I can give you comment about this book: It is not worthy of being mentioned in the Philosophy section.
