As much as I like and admire Susan, her views are not Baha'i doctrine.
Yes, but the above are both academic papers full of citations,
examples, quotes from and descriptions of the actions of Bahaullah,
the Bab, etc.on this issue. A practice of dissimulation is pretty
clearly associated with the Bahai faith and connected to its
principles and early history.
They aren't just refuted or couner-balanced by a single quote.
