Shared Places of Worship (moral, tradition, beliefs, homosexuality, preach)

[Popeyesays]

It should be noted that the objection is to sex outside marriage. We do not look in bedroom windows, it's a waste of time and an invasion of privacy, but if a heterosexual couple take up residence with one another and every one knows it is for the purpose of living in an intimate relationship--given that one or both are Baha`i--that is not acceptable either The matter would be consulted on in the assembly, the Baha`i's in subject would be asked to consult with the assembly and asked to rectify the situation.

If they refused or if the situation could only be rectified by separation (because of another marriage or a Year of Patience in progress) then the assembly would probably request the National Spiritual Assembly to revoke the administrative rights of the Baha`i's involved.

That revocation would be in effect until the situation was rectified.

The Baha`i writings do not allow homosexual marriage. It is unequivocal and without compromise. It's not a decision that can be amended by any authority living or established. Will the next Manifestation of God abrogate that law? I do not know but it would be His/Her right to do so; but no one else's until that time.
