While we are not required to necessarily proclaim that we are Baha'is, dissimulation, denying we are Baha'is or claiming to be some other religion, is prohibited.

Dear Hasan, If such a person were to ask me where the Baha'is were, I would not tell him and I might even give some false information (presuming it would not endanger non-Baha'is.) If he were to ask me if I were a Baha'i I might waffle a bit (as I did in a job interview once, since this is an illegal question) but I would suffer martyrdom before I deny it (at least I hope I would.) warmest, Susan The information contained in this e-mail and any attachments thereto ("e-mail") is sent by the Johnson County Community College ("JCCC") and is intended to be confidential and for the use of only the individual or entity named above.

Re: to say the truth (in spanish, :) )
Thanks for answer, if this armed man says that he will kill everyone who is bahá'í? We accept this as martyrdom? Could this be martyrdom or foolishness? [EMAIL PROTECTED] escribió: 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 http://hasaneliasperu.blogspot.com/ The information contained in this e-mail and any attachments thereto ("e-mail") is sent by the Johnson County Community College ("JCCC") and is intended to be confidential and for the use of only the individual or entity named above.
