Dear W,
This brings into play a fascinating topic. For whatever the reason,
each of us is certain of a particular path being more correct than
others available. And we all believe that the continuity of the human
race and the path of history is better served by the particualr path
we each take.
In hindsight we can see historical activity, and we determine that a
particular pathway was "better" than some of the others, but even that
is conditioned by our prejudices determining what is best for
humanity. In the overall scope of things a particular direction is
achieved, and we find that it happened in spite of the actions of
detractors, and the lack of interst of others.
An extreme example of that may be seen in the progress of medical
activity through the ages. Two hundred years ago it was believed and
practiced that the way to cure almost anything was to enact a series
of "blood-lettings" on the patient. In hindsight, we now know that
that practice is barbaric and in fact probably contributed to many
needless deaths. I recently read an article that opined that the
reason for many deaths happening in cases when a person quits
breathing is not due to the length of time the breathing has stopped,
rather from the rush of air to the system upon the start of CPR.
Certain experiments have apparently shown that the cause of death may
be from the rapid infusion of oxygen into the wounded system, and the
system possibly reacting to that as a poinsonous interference. The
alternative seems to be the slow introduction of a specially tempered
oxygen mixture that the human system can handle more readily. Could it
be that in the future the practice of current-day CPR will be placed
in the same category as we now place blood-letting? It could be that
our CPR methods will need slight modification in order to attain
greater success and more saved lives.
In any case, we are all doing the best we can to further the
particular flavor of cause that we believe in, praying earnestly to
God for His assistance, and recognizing that He has indeed in many
cases positively answered our prayers in a manner that we each
interpret as being tailored to our particular cause. However, in the
overall scheme of things, God's Will is no doubt tailored more to one
path than another, and His preferred direction will in the end be the
one that triumphs over the others, either with us or in spite of us.

Absolutely true! Perhaps that Wisdom (hikma) even transcends all the
man-made creeds, bogus revelations and false authority claims that
human beings have from time immemorial been foisting upon this world
and against each other, and especially foisting against all the True
Ones. Don't you find it interesting and an example of the Godhead's
Wisdom in action, for example, that well after Bahaism had ignorantly
thought it had forever buried the Mirror and the Point, that the Point
and the Mirror would come back and haunt Bahaism as a whole; this,
while all the rest of you bicker endlessly over whether women should
serve on a headless uhj, whether Mason Remey's appointment of
Marangella was irrevocable whilst others of you offer the most
contrived and fallacious interpretations of various gates of the Bayan
(as Sen McGlinn is doing) in order to justify their given life styles?
Your so-called religion has been an endless and continual calamity of
unwisdom, untruth and bickering over authority claims both to
yourselves and the rest of the world. Consider that Mirza Husayn 'Ali
Nari was a false prophet and thus bogus, his entire covenant nothing
more than a satanic monument to his own perverted ego and hence the
whole edifice of your creed no more than promptings of the evil
whisperer (waswaas), and then you will be truly freed from the dark
bandage and shakles you are all under!
