    Hello dear Clyde, so nice to see you here too. It's been a long time since I last saw you on a forum. This has much better decorum for sure.

    A question for Ahmadiyyas

    Dear Anti-religion, I am well aware of what the founder of my own religion did as well as that of the Ahmadiyya creed. And yes, Muslims generally do not accept either of us as valid religious successors (though Ahmadiyya claims to be more like a reform if I'm not mistaken) due to their belief...

    A question for Ahmadiyyas

    :) السلام عليكم I have been seeing more and more claims on the Internet that the Ahmadiyya movement is a brainchild of the British government. As a Baha'i, I hear similar claims about my own religion (but they are totally...

    Program hiding pictures of Baha'u'llah for me

    I would say that this is a measure taken actually to prevent the idolization of Baha'u'llah. There's nothing wrong with only wanting to view your beloved under respectful circumstances, just as you would want to do the same for your loved one. Unabashedly having it all over the place doesn't do...

    Program hiding pictures of Baha'u'llah for me

    The House has confirmed that there are two pictures: "In one of His epistles, 'Abdu'l-Bahá, the son of Bahá'u'lláh, wrote that two photographs of Bahá'u'lláh were taken, both in Adrianople, Turkey, each in a different pose. There are copies of both pictures at the Bahá'í World Centre and one of...

    Program hiding pictures of Baha'u'llah for me

    There are only two photographs of him period. One is the one that has been circulated all over the Internet. The other is located at the Baha'i World Centre in Haifa, Israel. They are not the same, but they were taken in the same sitting.

    Program hiding pictures of Baha'u'llah for me

    Hi Steinninn, I just learned how to do this the other way, but only with the image on Wikipedia (since it has a specific filename). You find the instructions to block Baha'u'llah's picture in Firefox here: User:Jeff3000/image - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    a famous bahai, Alison Marshall

    Absolutely correct. I believe she explains the whole thing on one of her blogs, Baha'i Meditations or something to that effect.

    Can a bahai be a best man?

    "In some countries a godfather or godmother is regarded by most people simply as a good friend of the family who sends gifts to the child annually. If that were all, there would, of course, be no objection to a Bahá'í's accepting to be a godfather or godmother. However, even in such countries it...

    Quote of the Day

    That is excellent! But, especially that last paragraph, wouldn't it be considered a pilgrim's note? That would be such a beautiful bit of information if it were authentic.

    Debunking the Myths: My First Book

    Vladimir Lenin once said that a lie told often enough becomes truth. If one takes a look at the way Bahá'ís have been viewed and treated by their adversaries, particularly Muslim clerics from Shaykh Fazlollah Nuri to Falsafi to Dorri-Najafabadi and other leaders of the current Iranian regime...
