Hi Ron,
I`m not religious.
Baha`i faith as I understand it doesn`t just believe in a religion, they appear to believe in them all. The idea being that all these religious beliefs stem out of messages from the creator, only the message has become scattered and different.
I admire the goal, to unite all in a common belief, this is similiar to Humanism is it not? I`ve even read that there are many Humanists who are agnostic. baha`i seems a little similiar.
I haven`t learned a lot about Baha`i, but I understand there was a fellow who had a divine revelation and wanted to share it. God`s real goal, or something like that.
What makes Baha`i special? what is convincing about yet another man claiming divine inspiration?
