Hi Chase
If you just think about the statement a little more carefully it is
pretty
clear that it is not referring to religion as a whole but individual
religions. So that if the Baha'i Faith, for instance, began to have the
same
kind of effects that Islam is having it would be in line with the true
teachings of the Faith to abandon our religion.
I don't see anything that would allow a Baha'i to abandon his religion,
though. I didn't think we were allowed to deny Baha'u'llah under any
circumstances.
It is not saying to do away
with religion if any independent religion is creating problems in the
world.
Your implication is that members of one faith are responsible for the
actions of member of an entirely different religion.
Okay, that wasn't what I meant to say. I don't think I mentioned individual
religions, but I may have been unclear.
Regards,
David
