So Ron and others need not have any fear that they will be disenrolled if they think differently. > My understanding is that your perspective of the Baha'i Faith is > fundamentally flawed, That is correct, regrettable and inevitable. But I don't think that is relevant. If only those with flawless thinking were allowed in the Bahai community, we would not have six Bahais, let alone six million. Fortunately the UHJ does not expel people for deviant thought. As long as the UHJ is cleared of that accusation, I really don't care what sort of pattern of behaviour people attribute to me. There's a wide range of speculations out there: take your pick or make up your own. Alternatively, look at what the UHJ actually wrote on 14 Nov 2005: http://bahairants.com/fahrenheit-145-77.html Sen ---------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Sen McGlinn *** Let the friends recall and ever bear in mind the repeated exhortations and glowing promises of our beloved Master with reference to the Mashriqu'l-Adhkar, the crowning institution in every Baha'i community.
