Sacred texts of Baha'i

The ref library link didn't work for me. Today. I'll try again. Thanks also to Maize for directing us to the Sacred Texts. I own the CD, but haven't of course been able to look at more than a tiny fraction of it yet.

I'm in mid second semester of religious studies, so I haven't decided yet what to dig into for 3rd semester. Baha'i is a possible choice. From what I've seen so far, it must be one of the most tolerant religions of the world. (From this perspective, I also consider Sikhism, UU, and Daoism, and I haven't closed my list yet.) I'm rather positively biased, after having visited the amazing Lotus Temple in Delhi. (That day, the temperature was at some 47 deg C, approaching 120 deg F, and in spite of recently having been very ill, I managed to appreciate it.) Photos aren't allowed inside, but the exterior also is awesome: http://www.indiaoindia.com/lotustemple/ Not bad ether is http://www.delhi-india.net/lotus-temple.html. For still more, just search for "Lotus Temple".

The Bahai's are one of the most tolerant, non-judgemental religious communities I've encountered, Anders. For a general overview I'd recommend Baha'u'llah and the New Era.
