Dear Hasan,
I know that Baha'is *did* use it as an excuse to lie on occasion.
Whether that was right, I'm not prepared to say. The only instance I
know of where Abdu'l-Baha Himself stated that a lie was justifiable
was if a doctor lied to raise the spirit of their patient. But if a
bunch of armed gunmen came to your house demanding to know where you
your daughters were, I think you would be justified in telling a lie.
When the welfare and lives of human beings are at stake, I think lies
are justified in most cases. There are other cases where we sacrifice
our very lives for the truth.
Still, I don't think it would be accurate to say that a Baha'i cannot
always tell the truth. For most of us choices like the above never
come up.
warmest, Susan

LOL Husayn.
Susan, please could you explain if the use of hikmat allows to lie in some
instances? (I'm not talking about confessions)
Thanks

bueno, pienso que algunas veces es dificil decir la verdad, esto no quiere
decir que "mentir" sea permitido. algunas veces la catidad es dificil, pero
esto no quiere decir que podamos romper la ley por tal razon.
pero esto no significa que los bahais debamos "confesar siempre" todo lo que
sabemos, o lo que pensamos; por otro lado, tenemos el Hikmat, un bahai debe
ejercitar no solo la veracidad, sino tb la cortesia, la prudencia y la
moderacion,
por otro lado, como dice Suan, no todo en esta vida es blanco o negro. :P

PD, Hasan, a lo mejor alguien nos dice que en espaniol no debemos escribir,

Re: to say the truth
man write me in Spanish please. LOL
HUSA <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> escribió:dear Hasan,
well, I think that some times is difficult to say the truth. this does not
mean that to "lie" is allowed. some times the castity is difficult, does not
mean that we pruned to break the law by such reason. but this does not mean
that baha'is we must always confess everything what we know, or what we
thought; on the other hand, we have the Hikmat, an bahai must put in exercise
not only the Veracity, but also the Courtesy, the Prudence, and the Moderation.
on the other hand, as Susan says, everything in this world is not Black or
White :P
regards,
husa
