From Mission Problems in New Persia, 1926, p. 83, 87 & 89 quoted by William McElwee Miller in The Baha'i Faith: It's History and Teachings, 1973, p. 289.

 "...There is no conscience with them [ i.e. the Baha'is], they keep to no principle, they tell you what is untrue, ignoring or denying undoubted historical facts, and this is the character of both the leader and the led...As to morality and honesty, the whole system has proved disappointing...I have been in contact with many Baha'is, and have had dealings with many and have tested many, and unfortunately I have met not a single one who could be called honest or faithful in the full sense of these words..." 

Dr Sa'eed Khan [was] a highly-respected physician...who had as a doctor treated the second widow of the Bab, and had for a lifetime known intimately both Babis [i.e. Bayanis] and Baha'is in Tehran and Hamadan.

NUR one remaining question

by B (not verified) on

NUR one remaining question about Bab I asked before. Is it "Bob" in Farsi? If so, do you know why it is spelled as Bab?

About Bahais back in those Qajar days things were different. People were illiterate much less ability to read books and such. Similar things can be said about Ali and Omar. Now-a-days they both have families and living ordinary lives. Same can be said about Bahais.

This is not gonna work. I'm telling you. Blanket dismissal of Bahais ain't gonna work. You need some fine print, something to say something like this does not apply to all Bahais. Many are ordinary citizens.

E.G. Brown, a Cambridge

by Badi (not verified) on

E.G. Brown, a Cambridge professor, and one of the few Europeans to meet Bahá’u’lláh, penned this description: “The face of him on whom I gazed I can never forget, though I cannot describe it. Those piercing eyes seemed to read one’s very soul; power and authority sat on that ample brow… no need to ask in whose presence I stood, as I bowed myself before one who is the object of a devotion and love which kings might envy and emperors sigh for in vain!”

Dr Hezbollah Khan [was] a highly-respected physician...who had as a doctor treated the second widow of Wahid Azal, and had for a lifetime known intimately both IRI [i.e. Bayanis] and Ahamdinejad doostan in Tehran and Hamadan.

I am using the changed words above as an example to show every one how easy it is to make up words to accuse any group of people with no base at all.

Wahid Azal (NUR) what is your motive here? if your really believe in what you spread then you are severely disturbed and I suggest you need professional help
I will not get off your case until you come clean
and admit your desire to use this site to push IRIs agenda
and I will keep cornering you as I have before.
now go ahead and take the easy road and accuse me of being a bahai or jew or whatever it is you fantasize
you have not had one answer to tough questions except religious mombo jumbo and telling people you have commandments for them ! now shove your commandments up you know where and give us an honest answer...why picking on one single group that has been prosecuted the most by IRI in Iran if you are not writing for them?
