What I found out is that Planet X is thought to be a hypothetical tenth planet in our solar system. <a href="http://science.nasa.gov/headlines/y2005/29jul_planetx.htm">HERE</a> is an interesting site from NASA regarding Planet X. <br /><br />As you likely know, The Urantia Book tells us that there are actually <a href="http://www.truthbook.com/index.cfm?linkID=1304#U57_5_7">twelve</a> planets in our solar system, so I guess I am not too surprised about Planet X - it gives us another evidence of the accuracy of the revelation. But that is about as far as I would go in giving credence to the theories about this planet, including that it is coming closer to Earth, which is supposed to result in massive disruption and chaos, timed to coincide with the 2012 doomsday predictions.<br /><br />Nowhere in The Urantia Book do I find any corroborating information regarding any doomsday scenarios like this. I guess anything is possible, but I think that if there was such a looming disaster on the horizon, that the revelators might have given us some indication...or maybe not, as they were not permitted to reveal everything that they know about our planetary evolution. In any event, it seems counter-productive to put too much stock into possible disaster theories, which takes us away from our here-and-now lives, and only instills fear. If something like that is going to happen, it will not affect any of our potentials for survival of death, and eternal life with the Father, which is our primary concern as Spirit-born children of God. It can be fun to theorize, but maybe our time would be best spent on developing that eternal relationship, no matter what the material world may throw at us. That is a reality that overshadows all future theories.<br /><br />Interestingly enough, you'll find a discussion of this very topic <a href="http://forums.truthbook.com/viewtopic.php?f=7&amp;t=3160">HERE</a> on our Discussion Forum, where it is being pretty thoroughly explored by other Urantia Book readers.
