The problem, as I see it, isn't exactly Ruhi, whatever one's opinions of it. The problem is a perceived authoritarianism, of "my way or the highway," concerning Ruhi, which has never been addressed. If Ruhi continues to be pushed, and the completion of certain Ruhi sequences is made a prerequisite for more and more Baha'i activities (like homefront pioneering), the alienation will only get worse. I would hope that certain people would learn from mistakes made with Baha'is back in the 1990s. With regards, Mark A.
