Dear Susan
I've been following this discussion with increasing interest.

"That is one of the reasons Baha'u'llah often gave people titles equivalent

Dear Scott,
It would be a mistake to interpret the House's April 7 letter as an
attack on the notion of academic freedom. What they are criticizing is
the attempt to misuse the term in a Baha'i religious context. Academic
freedom is the freedom of teachers, students, and academic
