Some UBFers are attracted not so much to the theology, but to its great insights. Here are a few of those insights culled from paper 100, "Religion in Human Experience." Ask yourself if a superhuman being was necessary to reveal these gems.
The experience of dynamic religious living transforms the mediocre individual into a personality of idealistic power....
Give every developing child a chance to grow his own religious experience....
Religious experience is markedly influenced by physical health, inherited temperament, and social environment....
Spiritual development depends, first, on the maintenance of a living spiritual connection with true spiritual forces....
The goal of human self-realization should be spiritual, not material....
Human likes and dislikes do not determine good and evil; moral values do not grow out of wish fulfillment or emotional frustration....
Jesus was an unusually cheerful person, but he was not a blind and unreasoning optimist....
If the philosophical, theological or spiritual insights do not impress you, then you might want to consider the scientific insights of the UB, such as the resurrection of the pre-Adamite thesis of Isaac la Peyrère (1596-1676).
