sen,
:"but we still have to rid
Bahai culture entirely of all the strange ideas the early believers
brought into the Faith from their various backgrounds, or found in
pilgrim's notes and things attributed to Abdu'l-Baha."
to which i add an a=phleaping-men, and add as well, a point made by the
beloved Guardian in 1948, "is a Baha'i in his own right, and is >>>not bound<<<
by the mistakes of his Baha'i teachers".
i know of many cases where some concept was passed along in some sense of
loyalty to a teacher, elder, etc., in what is kind of reproduction of the meme
as an confused impulse. this point is made indirectly in ruhi 5 in a cite form
the beloved Guardian about choice being a function of circumstance as well as
motive: if rejection of an error is >>perceived<< as rejection of the holder of
the error, it becomes less easy to do.
