Hi, I do believe in God. But I think this is an important question
you should not avoid. Based on your two posts above,
I interpret you as saying that you believe in God
because of the Quran.
Clearly, the Foundation of the Baha'i Faith is not the Qur'an,
but rather the writings of Baha'u'llah, The Bab, Abdu'l-Baha,
Shoghi Effendi, and the Universal House of Justice.
Of course, the **Baha'i Writings** speak very highly of the Qur'an
and the Bible, and actually quote from both of them, and make
statements about their authenticity in response to seekers'
questions, and call both of them the Word of God for a different time.
