The original point was how do you evaluate prophets and think about sinlessness. I would say that there is a certain minimal core morality which is more fundamental and you could in principle use that the judge prophets.

That was the original issue before people got side-tracked. This is a list with a wide audeince, one should remember that the topics are likely to mutate beyond the designs of any of the participants. One of the qualitiesof a Baha`i consultation is that ideas are presented and ownership of those ideas is simultaneously given up.
