Martin Gardner in Urantia notes that this journal had been started in 1904. If that is so, it was revived in a new series in 1946. This was the journal of the Kosmon Church and Fraternity of Faithists in England, designed both to spread the word of Kosmon to non-believers and to expound the details of John Newbrough's Oahspe to members.

Claude-Generated Themes:   The Kosmon Unity was a London magazine of the Faithist or Kosmon movement, published from Balham in the 1950s and dated in its own Kosmon calendar (A.K. 108, i.e. 1955). It took its scripture and its worldview from Oahspe, the vast channeled 'Kosmon Bible' that John Ballou Newbrough produced in 1882, and it addressed 'all interested in the Light of the New Age' — announcing that the earth was entering a New Age to be inaugurated by brotherhood, service, and spiritual communion under the Supreme Being's guidance. Its idiom fused this Oahspe theology with occult and mystical 'unfoldment,' reincarnation and the law of cause and effect, and the Theosophical language of Masters and World-teachers working from the spiritual spheres. Because the Faithist tradition has no exact place in the standard topic map, it is best located among the New-Age, occult-philosophy, reincarnation and channeled-scripture currents it most resembles.
