I was taking it in the context in which it had just been quoted by another Baha'i, to wit...You are taking a Christian fundamentalist approach of taking sacred scripture out of context.
...if indeed there is a God, but people are unable to recognize Him, it is due to their own false beliefs and delusions. In the same way that if there is no God, the people who believe in God would be delusional. I quote Baha'ullah:
"For the people are wandering in the paths of delusion, bereft of discernment to see God with their own eyes, or hear His Melody with their own ears. Thus have We found them, as thou also dost witness.
Thus have their superstitions become veils between them and their own hearts and kept them from the path of God, the Exalted, the Great."
Once again I find myself wondering about Baha'i kettles and other pots...
