CG, you are still saying it is God that is making our choices.
I did? Let's look at what Fundie Christian tell us. They say that everything was created perfect but then Adam sinned and God was forced to curse him, the serpent and the whole Earth. God didn't make Adam choose to do the wrong thing. In fact God told him not to eat the from the tree with the forbidden fruit. But... since God knows all, is what they tell me, God knew that Adam would sin. So why did God make Adam that dumb, that unspiritually connected to God, to where he'd do the right thing? And God put the temptation, the tree with the fruit, right in front of his face. Then God let a serpent, whom God created and knew very well that this cunning creature would be able to convince Eve to take a bite of the fruit and then get Adam to take a bite also. Then God complains and says, "Why did you do such a thing?"
Now what choice do we have? Baha'u'llah claimed to be the Promised One of every religion. Yet, lots of people in the different religions don't believe him. Baha'u'llah sent letters to the world's leaders. They rejected him. And God didn't know this was going to happen? God let all his other messages get corrupted and misunderstood and now blames people for not recognizing his new messenger? So God now says that he's going to let us all go through a bunch of horrible things because our great, great, and maybe one more great, grandparents and the world leaders didn't listen to Baha'u'llah. But God is not to blame?
He sent messengers, and if they didn't say ambiguous things, then the people that wrote down what the messengers said certainly did, so it is our fault when we are taught that those writings are Sacred, and in some cases actually called the "Word of God"? And in some cases are believed to be the inerrant, infallible Truth? And now, Baha'is tell us that those writings aren't totally accurate? And on top of that, our spiritual leaders have added in man made traditions and have developed beliefs and doctrines that are based on misinterpretations of those "Holy" Scriptures? And now, finally, he had one of his messengers actually write the message down himself, so it wouldn't be all screwed up? Yeah, I guess you're right. We deserve what we get. But...
We keep the balance and the balance is maintained, the world would treat us kindly.
Who gave people the capacity and knowledge to take natural things out of the Earth and make stuff out of it? Stuff that ends up putting things out of balance? But that's okay, now we have the Baha'i message. We can put things back into balance. No more burning coal and gasoline and all those types of things. No more plastic and other weird synthetics, like nylon and what ever else. But then what? Will God stop sending floods and earthquakes and other natural disasters? If I go swimming in the ocean, I would go surfing but we should do away with fiberglass surfboards, will God make it so sharks won't attack me? Things should be so balanced that they'll only eat fish and seals right? Anyway Tony, I'm sure the world will be better if we all accept the teachings of the Baha'i Faith, but I doubt if it will be without lots and lots of problems.
