I'll believe Alex could get banned from the Baha'i forum when I see monkeys fly past Martha Stewart while she's officiating Popeye and Olive Oil's wedding ceremony followed by a reception catered by Spongebob Squarepants.
should I stay or should I go?

I've visited Green Acre. Lovely place and very spiritual.

lol. Dream you are a craftsmen of words... Truly beautiful lol.
I was just using me being banned as an example not, that anyone has motioned for such a crazy action!
That reminds me I had a dream one time that hell froze over and I kicked the devil's head off. (I had previously read that when people from heaven visit hell, it appears to freeze over... (Heaven and Hell by Emmanuel Swedenborg))
Good point, Alex is not going to be banned
I haven't been there, but I have a friend who's there right now. Katie, if you're reading this, HELLO! (I doubt she's reading this.)
Alejandro Pey is here to stay. I mean Alex. I'm from a city called Alexandria. Not there now... it's two thousand miles from where I am now.
Does anyone know how many posts you need to have before you can do certain things like make polls and do the interfaith text study? I might be able to do the interfaith text study, I haven't checked.

Don't know. Around 400 posts I think is where I became a senior member. I'm still waiting for the check to clear, though.

I am going to go with 400. ¬.¬
Careful with the cheque.... They make them specially... Out of rubber if you know what I mean...
We were talking about green in this topic, and I remember reading about the emerald heights of fidelity... I'll look for the quote.
O Son of Justice! In the night season the beauty of the immortal Being hath repaired from the emerald height of fidelity unto the Sadratu’l-Muntahá, and wept with such a weeping that the Concourse on high and the dwellers of the realms above wailed at His lamenting. Whereupon there was asked, Why the wailing and weeping? He made reply: As bidden I waited expectant upon the hill of faithfulness, yet inhaled not from them that dwell on earth the fragrance of fidelity. Then summoned to return I beheld, and lo! certain doves of holiness were sore tried within the claws of the dogs of earth. Thereupon the Maid of Heaven hastened forth unveiled and resplendent from Her mystic mansion, and asked of their names, and all were told but one. And when urged, the first letter thereof was uttered, whereupon the dwellers of the celestial chambers rushed forth out of their habitation of glory. And whilst the second letter was pronounced they fell down, one and all, upon the dust. At that moment a voice was heard from the inmost shrine: “Thus far and no farther.” Verily, We bear witness unto that which they have done, and now are doing. -Baha'u'llah

There is a check box under 'Additional Options' when I start a new thread. I hear that when I hit 500 posts, I'll be able to shoot lightening from my fingertips.

Dream... On my other account I think I hit over 4,000 posts..... Lightning from your fingertips... Tinker toys compared to the abilities that you shall aquire, learn and master when you hit 4000... You become like a digital god... Might aswell go and call yourself neo at that point, because you are 'the one'.
I'd kind of like to post a poll about what color people think of the Baha'i Faith as. Something like....
Do you think of the Baha'i Faith as...
1. Green
2. Red
3. Purple
4. Yellow/Gold
5. Blue
6. Orange
....and then the thread can be about why people picked a particular color. I thought of another reason for green... the Lote-Tree is symbolic of the Manifestations of God. But the case is good for red also, as Baha'u'llah is the Crimson Pillar and the Faith the Crimson Ark.
If anyone who can post polls would like to post that poll, that would be awesome!
Someone tested my electricity levels one time and said I have twice the normal amount of electricity. I also have two crowns in my hair instead of one. That seems like an out of the blue thing to say, but "lightning from your fingertips" reminded me of that.
The case could be made for blue for the Baha'i Faith because... well, this is my own idea... when I read "hyacinth" I don't think of the flower but of the bird, the Hyacinth Macaw, which is blue and gold. What color is the flower?
