I will continue with what I believe is interesting information concerning the Course.

Helen Schucman who was chosen by Jesus to be the SCRIBE for His Book, was also an ATHEIST at the time of its beginning.


She could not only hear Jesus, but she could also see Him, and therefore I do not think that this can be called "Channeled". Because she even tried to describe what Jesus looked like to Bill when he asked her what Jesus looked like.



She resisted doing the scribing at times. And at one point she asked Jesus,
"Why did you pick me? I could not have been a worse choice!, And why now?"

Jesus replied to her, "No, you are mistaken, because you were one of OUR better choices, because you will do it.
And He also said, "We call this time a CELESTIAL SPEEDUP. The reason that it is given now is that the world will soon go through a very difficult time, and if we did not intercede you all might not find your way Home to God. My contribution is the Course, and yours is to scribe it."


(This information I am describing now is in another book called "Absence From Felicity" which is the biography of Helen Schucman. It does not appear in the Course.

(the above is not directly quoted since I don't have that book with me, but I am paraphrasing, and I'm sure its pretty close.)
