I found what I was looking for. Baha'u'llah.

"2. We do not allow CR to be used as a soapbox to aggressively promote any faith, or see any faith aggressively attacked." It appears that soapboxes are fine as long as there isn't aggressive promoting or attacking... no aggression.... :)

I just found this article... Catastrophe, Armageddon and Millennium: some aspects of the Bábí-Baha'i exegesis of apocalyptic symbolism "It is the Bahá'í belief that the 'catastrophe' or the apocalyptic upheaval of the last days has very largely, if not completely, been realised in the...

I believe in spiritual resurrection, not physical. I believe in the spiritual significance of life, resurrection, and judgment. People like to take things literally and physically when I believe they are meant spiritually. Armageddon is a mountain by Megiddo, very close to Mount Carmel, the...

Mormons have tons of money ;) I mean, the LDS Church has tons of money.

Let's agree to disagree. Is it so bad that I believe my soul is spirit and that it will live forever?

The United Arab Emirates deserves praise! They have ID cards where Baha'i is an option! Number nine! (that's what I heard)

Yep. They are bound by international law to respect religious liberty. Best case scenario: both the President of Iran and the Ayatollah agree to allow Baha'is to be Baha'is. The Iranian Constitution recognizes Islam, Christianity, Judaism, and Zoroastrianism. Islam itself, in the Qur'an...

I think it's much less expensive to spread literature than it is to build buildings. You just need lots of people to spread it. I'm not a Jehovah's Witness, I'm a Baha'i, and right now we're building (or very soon building) a House of Worship in Chile that is like no other building ever... have...

Kalimat'u'llah = Word of God Another name for Jesus is Ruhu'llah, which means Spirit of God.

I hope the next president of Iran will be a true Muslim and stand for religious liberty as the Qur'an itself defends.

I believe God created the soul to be immortal and that it's only the body that goes back to dust.

Welcome to CR! I'm shy, too, a shy Baha'i. It rhymes :) Judaism is interesting, is it not? It's a religion that is acknowledged as divinely revealed by three other world religions: Christianity, Islam, and the Baha'i Faith. We all (the four of these religions) believe Abraham and Moses and...

Have fun!

Thanks! It was the name Baha that was in red ink: "The Báb singled out the Greatest Name in the manuscript copies of His matchless Writings. Years ago, I had the honour to read three volumes of His Writings before they were despatched to the beloved Guardian. The books were written down by...

I believe there are nine true religions, the Baha'i Faith, the Babi Faith (immediately preceding the Baha'i Faith,) Islam, Christianity, Judaism, Buddhism, Sabaeanism, Zoroastrianism, and Hinduism. That doesn't mean I agree with everything that all of the followers of each religion currently...

I'm not sure where I read it or where I heard about it, but did the Bab, when writing, use red ink for every letter Ba and Ha? I know He gave Baha His name Baha. I also heard that nineteen out of every twenty Babis became a Baha'i. Anyone know the source of that? Allah'u'Abha!

Thanks :)

Had the leaders of the world heeded His counsel, we would have beheld a new earth. They chose to exalt themselves, and in the process lost everything they had. The empires are gone. (The mountains passed away.) We are now in the Formative Age, I believe, which leads to the Golden Age. You want...

I have seen an angel once, and felt them many more times. I have had many dreams that ended up happening in real life years later. Dreams are, I believe, evidence of the soul, and the soul is evidence of God, the One Who created souls. Angels are also evidence of God, as are near death...
