It's been 4-5 years since I was a regular here on TRB and it hasn't changed

visitors and it could be any day in 2002....... I have realised for quite
some time now, that those people stay around because they are afraid of the
Baha'i Faith. They seem to recognise that when something appears to be
truthful to 1000's of people, they have to try and prove everything is
wrong. This is the way to Allah of their belief................ on the backs
of others.
Here's the problem with that approach......
If being a Baha'i has helped me discover what my Messenger has for
me.................. then.... well......... you've got no hope on this sweet
green earth of changing my mind. If your goal in this meaningless attempt to
alter my Faith fails, which it has, then you have lost your time and
expended hours of irretrievable effort. Now if you used this time and labour
and actually tried to help your fellowman, your world would have remembered
you as a believer and a practicer of moral improvement. . It won't and I
won't...........


May I suggest, since you have found Baha'u'llah, that you consult Him
directly on matters instead of listening to the interpretations and
advices of the House members, the Counsellors, Aux. Board members,
Assistants, and NSA and LSA members. Remember that Baha'u'llah
rejected clergy and asked His followers to independently investigate
the truth. This involves an open and inquiring mind. The truth is
Reality. Don't fear it or close your mind to it.
