You are right RJM. Peace in the world is the by product of having fulfilled our true spiritual goals and coming to peace inwardly. I think, as I said in my first comment, if we realize the spiritual truth and walk that path, peace in the outward realm will naturally follow.

No, with any religion or ideology that one has. I believe the inner message of all religions (the spiritual part) is the same; they're all messengers of love and peace and kindness. The matter of choosing a religion (baha'i or any other) is something between the servant and God, but if we really...

I think the kind of unity that is mentioned in all religions-directly and indirectly- is more an inward, philosophical, spiritual matter. if we get that one right, the outward one follows. The idea is probably not something new. I am sure many of you have thought about it and it is known. I...

that was really good to read those Bible quotes. I LOVE Christ and I enjoy all His words. now I am going to give my opinion in a separate comment.

I do. I will explain now.

inward "Unity" matters. I am going to explain in a seperate comment now. :)

"Regard ye not one another as strangers.Ye are the fruits of one tree and the leaves of one branch." Baha'u'llah; Gleanings from the Writings of Bahá’u’lláh, p. 218 Cleave unto that which draweth you together and uniteth you. This, verily, is the most exalted Word which the Mother Book hath...

Badger, I refered to some of your ideas before, but you seemed to have completely dismissed them. so I'll try a second time: about the destruction of the Baha'i houses in Roshan Kuh, that was purely an act of enmity towards Baha'is. If the gorvernment destroys your house -after having given...

very true RJM. I was reading parts of Masnavi tonight; a mystical book of poetry composed by Persian poet "Rumi" and there he says we cannot really feel the depth of misery and darkness which is being spoken of, unless we personally have some experience of it. Now, I see that Baha'is' life as a...

I wouldn't call it "care". They are more like trying to do their evil actions in a way that wont provoke direct criticism. You'd call that "care"? Well I wont. Hey by the way, u had asked about a book or something which you can read on the historical events of the life of Bahaullah. There's a...

I didn't say the government is extra "careful". I have said the government is extra "tyranical and anti-baha'i". being careful is a good thing; being a tyrant is not.

Hmmm.... we haven't FOUND/DECIDED ON anything in the other thread Badger. that's maybe just your own conclusion.

Yep your guess is right my friend ;) have a good day. Allaho Abha

He did not go there on His own will. the government banished Him, and before the banishment executed many Babi's (at that time, we still just had the Babi religion.) Many kids were in the banished caravan of Bahaullah, and you should read the account of hardship the kids and women had to...

Haha...your final words made me smile. I guess that is enough good to take from one post; "bringing smile to someone's face". though, I do not dismiss the rest of your points, and I daresay (as you have maybe foreseen, O Thou Mighty Prophet ;) ) I disagree with many of the things you said, but...

The recipe of the Baha'i faith is not yet widely tried (or failed). but even apart from that, just looking at what humans think they can do relying only on their own minds stripped of any spiritual guidances, I do not think it can save the world from where it is now. There has been wars on earth...

Right. I kina felt bad after giving that bit of info :D life's tough having to all the time be careful about what you say and what you do not say :p I think I'd walk the path more carefully from now on :rolleyes:

Huh....they'll never let websites like Interfaith be open coz here Baha'i people can "talk". for that reason alone, it will never be allowed. in fact the banning of the websites is done automatically based on keywords, so that is that.

By the way, regarding that bit of news in the Persian News agency, I thought it is good that I, as an eye witness, give everyone a hint of how news and other sources of information are all banned in Iran and only the governmental sources are open, so that you would know that you CAN'T at all, in...

I translated the Wiki in English for myself to understand what it says. It said that the Germany government thought Baha'is were engaged in political actions because of the nature of the hierarchy within the faith. So, what Baha'is did there is not trying to change/bend German laws. They tried...
