If I'm not mistaken, the beloved Guardian Shoghi Effendi refers to the

recall the context in which he makes that comment about Him.
Yes, Shoghi Effendi uses the words "unerring pen" in multiple contexts
when referring with to Abdul-Baha. I meant no disrespect to
Abdul-Baha. I was simply trying to use my limited reason to try to
understand what appeared to me as factual errors in His statements,
which I suspect are really errors borrowed from other sources, as Hasan
has suggested.
What is your paper about; and where and when will you publish it?
I am trying to understand what Abdul-Baha meant by materialism, His
objections to it, and what, if any, relationship He saw between
materialism, science, and European philosophy within the historical
context of His time. I don't know where and when I will publish. I
have to finish it first and get feedback from other scholars to see if
it is useful and if my interpretation is well supported.
