Then why not use 'I' instead of 'we?' Wouldn't that be proper grammar?
That would be better. Sometimes we is used as an indirect statement of one's own opinions. Maybe because that person doesn't want to take responsibility for a strong opinion that may contrast greatly with the majority or authority.
The only person I found owned up to his statement was when I asked a jew on RF if god told him to kill everyone (can't remember the exact phrase) would he do it as a jew.
He didn't say "we will, as jews, listen to god." but "I would..."
Threw me off guard, but some people hide behind pronouns.
If begin a statement with, "We must all have the capacity..." does that include just Baha'i? Does that include you? Me? Who?
Bahai use "we" a lot to refer to them as a group. It's a communal term. I don't know if they used "I believe..." before or rather "I
know this is true."
But that phrase is just a generalization statement. I know "we are god" is more specific but the same context applies. We can take it personally or it can (and does) represent one's opinion without needing the qualifier.
I guess it's a context thing. If someone said: "we are all murderers" I think that would get a lot of reaction. Though it follows the same rules just depends on how the other takes it.
