They all are bipedal? No Centaurs? How disapointing.....
i know. i was bummed too. not only all bi-pedal, but all between 2 feet and 10 feety so no giants. life spans from 25 to 500 years, so no Methusalas. the book says it's all a racial thing.
they do specify 1 brain, 2 brain, and 3 brain species, so that is something to keep a look-out for in the early science fiction as we pursue our comparisons.

Hey Turtle old pal,
It's been over 4 years now and from what I can see you're still on square one with your faulty premise. How's that working out for you?

130:4.4 A one-eyed person can never hope to visualize depth of perspective. Neither can single-eyed material scientists nor single-eyed spiritual mystics and allegorists correctly visualize and adequately comprehend the true depths of universe reality. All true values of creature experience are concealed in depth of recognition.
I'm curious Majeston. Why do you only make posts to Urantia threads? Why come to a science forum if you only want to discuss the UB?
What is your goal here?

No goals at this time Freez, sorry, did I do something wrong?
I post to topics I know about and learn from others feedback as well.
I didn't start the topic Freeze, but I'm a truth seeker in every field and this one
covers many topics I find interesting.
Thanks for your reply,

my bad. i overlooked early psychology as a contributor to this multi-brain theme. fortunately i saw a reference today by sman in another thread* that used the term "triune brain" so i followed that lead and found that the creator of the term does overlap, i.e. predates, the book's publishing date of 1955.
The triune brain is a model proposed by Paul D. MacLean to explain the function of traces of evolution existing in the structure of the human brain. In this model, the brain is broken down into three separate brains that have their own special intelligence, subjectivity, sense of time and space, and memory[1]. The triune brain consists of the R-complex, the limbic system, and the neocortex. Though still popular among some psychiatrists, the triune brain model is not accepted by researchers in comparative, evolutionary neuroanatomy[2] ...
