نقش سازنده دین در ایران فردا چیست؟ آیا دین افیون توده هاست یا چراغی است برای آینده؟
The role of religion in tomorrow's Iran? Is religion an opiate for the masses or is it a guiding light for our development? How can religion serve our future while avoiding the evils that religious people have brought through implementing a violent theocracy in all ages? Does religion have anything meaningful to say?
آیا ما باید از غرب الگو بگیریم یا غرب از ما؟ : بحثی در باره مردم سالاری و راهکارهای پیشنهادی یک دین ایرانی
بخش یکم
کاویان صادق زاده میلانی
حدود صد سال از صدور فرمان مشروطیت ایران می گذرد.
امسال شاهد بودیم که به مناسبت سدهء مشروطیت نشستها و همایشهای زیادی در مراکز دانشگاهی و فرهنگستانی در درون و برون کشور دایر شد و کتابها و مقالات زیادی در دست چاپ و انتشار است. شاید لازم باشد برخی نقطه های کور تحقیقات نوین را در باره گفتمانهای تاریخی-اجتماعی عصر مشروطه مطرح کنیم و زیر ذره بین ببریم.
در نوشتن قانون اساسی، دولتمردان و روشنفکران زمان به پیشواز الگوی اروپایی رفتند و قانون اساسی ایران را بر اساس قانون اساسی بلژیک تدوین کردند. البته تغییراتی جزیی هم در آن دادند و برخی حساسیتهای ملی و مذهبی را نیز در آن وارد کردند.
بررسی قانون اساسی و نظامنامه انتخابات نشان می دهد که حقوق شهروندی منحصر به اقلیتی از مردان ایرانی بود. زنان هیچ گونه حق رای نداشتند. ملاکان و کشاورزانی که صاحب ملکی بودند که هزار تومان قیمت داشت یا بازرگانانی که صاحب حجره معینی بودند حق رای داشتند. به علاوه شاهزادگان قاجار، علما و طلاب و گروهی از اصناف که صاحب دکان بودند نیز حضور شهروندی داشتند. اشخاص ورشکسته و گروههای دینی غیرمسلمان (چون بهائیان) نیز از حق رای محروم بودند. واضح است که حق رای و حضور مدنی به صاحبان قدرت و ثروت اعطا شده بود و حقوق شهروندی عمومی و همگانی نبود.
این هم نتیجه گرایش روشنفکران عصر به اندیشهء اروپایی که به کمتر از ده در صد ابرانیان حق رای عطا می کرد، بیش از 90 در صد رعیت و چند درصد شهروند.
در همین زمان در اروپا و ایالات متحده وضع به مراتب بدتر از آنچه متصور می شود بود. در انگلستان و ایالات متحده زنان از حق رای محروم بودند. حق رای در امریکا متعلق به مردان سفیدپوست و زمیندار بود. سیاهان در امریکا از اواخر قرن نوزده حق رای داشتند ولی در اکثر ایالتهای امریکا این حق عملا اجرا نمی شد. زنان در امریکا در سال 1920 میلادی حق رای گرفتند و در انگلستان در 1928 و به زنان سویسی در سال 1971 حق رای و شرکت در انتخابات اعطا شد.
حال فرض کنید اندیشه یا فکر یا جهان بینی یا آئینی ایرانی باشد که چهل سال پیش از مشروطیت:
- بر ضرورت وجود مجلس مشورت ملی و محدود کردن قدرت استبدادی دربار صحه گذارد.
- به زن و مرد حق مساوی در جامعه مدنی و حق رای برابر بدهد.
- حق رای را مختص طبقه های ثروتمند و قدرتمند نداند.
- برای اعطاء حقوق شهروندی حداقل سرمایه و ثروت و ملک را لازم نداند.
شاید جالب باشد بدانیم که چنین ایرانی ای در اواسط قرن نوزده میلادی در ایران ظاهر شد و این آموزه ها را به ایرانیان و جهانیان عرضه کرد.
نام او بهاالله بود و لابد می پرسید با او چه کردند. مگر ممکن است در استبداد و ظلم و تاریکی عصر قاجار، نظام حاکم بر ایران ( و با توجه به تسلط کامل قدرتهای خارجی بر دربار) به چنین اندیشه برخاسته از ایران و فکرنوین و نابی اجازه و فرصت حضور بدهند؟
بهاالله را زندانی و به اقصی نقاط امپراطوری عثمانی در سرزمین شام تبعید کردند و با کشتار هزاران نفر از پیروان آئین جدید اندیشه و فکر نو را از تاثیر بیشتر و عمیقتر بر جامعه ایران بازداشتند و ایرانیان را از این نهضت روشنگری محروم کردند. در نتیجه استبداد قاجار و استعمار خارجی بر ایران حکم راند.
خلاصه ایرانیان را به زور شمشیر و تبلیغات خرافی مذهبی از آشنایی با دین بهائی محروم ساختند و توسعه و ترقی ایران با این تبانی نظام و علما و استعمار لوث شد و در شرایطی که تمدن غرب خود نیازمند آن بود که از آموزه های انسان ساز بهاالله بهره مند شود، ما ایرانیان به گدایی اندیشه اروپا رفتیم و به سبب خود کم بینی ارزشها و معیارهای اروپا را نصب العین خود کردیم و از بلژیک قانون اساسی گرفتیم و به تقلید از آنان درصد بزرگی از مردم خود را از حقوق شهروندی محروم کردیم.
آئین بهائی کماکان به رسالت تاریخی خود ادامه می دهد. بزرگ مرد ایرانی که راهکارهائی ناب و نوین به ارمغان آورده بود چهل سال را در تبعید و زندان سپری کرد و در زندان در گذشت و پیروانش به طرز فجیعی قتل عام و سرکوب شدند.
چون نیک نظر کرد پر خویش در آن دید
گفتا ز که نالیم که از ماست که بر ماست
- ادامه دارد

RRRRRRRRRRRRRRight! Your version of history is really interesting. Please, please write a book on it and publish it. You don't know what a service you would do to Baha'is if Iranians could be "informed" through you that the akhunds have been sabotaged in Qajar and Pahlavi Periods. People would have just LOVED Baha'is if you could prove that!
Alas, you cannot! ALL the sources of history, Baha'i or otherwise, would tell you and other people that mullas, akhunds, your dear clergy have been the cause of killing of thousands of Baha'is during the Qajar rule and tens of them in 1320s and 1330s, and the suffering of all the Baha'i community under the Islam-panah Muhammad Riza Shah's 1340s and on.
Regarding Marxism, I was referring to your shallow uninformed usage of Marxist terminology. PLEASE, do write and publish YOUR version of history it would be fun and as I said people would love Baha'is just for the stroy you have created. Be under the care of your beloved akhunds, live for your dear mullas, and cherish them.

by Ye Irani (not verified) on Sun Dec 23, 2007 10:25 PM PSTI have no idea how you relate Marxists to Bahai and I'm not going to give you Bahai 101 course lecture here. Try to review Qajar social, economical, healt and foreign afairs and see how Bahai faith started. Of course, you would need to refer to resources outside Bahai circle.
I'm not saying that Europe or Russia started the faith, but for sure they used it as an instrument to subdue clergy role in society along with naive/supersticious Qajar shahs.

Your knowledge of Qajar history is something close to zero. So is your shalow (very shalow) familiarity with Marxist conceptions. I wonder how on earth you allow yourself to comment on things you know close to nothing about.
Jenab Kavian, The point is,
by Ye Irani (not verified) on Sun Dec 23, 2007 01:07 PM PSTJenab Kavian,
The point is, one need to follow chain of events rather than stopping at some orbitrary point. Bahai was formed to reduce the grip of clergy to the masses in Iran. It started with qajar naive polititians who followed west blindly. Mullahs where against infusion of foreign culture. They saw this as a tool of domination. Bahai played a major role in a very weaselous way to alter infrastructure of iranian culture.
We have a saying: Crow came wanted to learn how to walk like Peacock and forgot even his own walking.
Fact of the matter is Iran has a great, sound and progressive cultural infrastructure to bear few emires during course of history. There's no need to dump it. I'm all for learning new tricks of the trade but in no means changing infrastructure - which is a poison pill.
In one hand you disagree with influence of western culture
"(تاسف بارتر این است که ما به گدایی اندیشه های غرب رفتیم.)". On the other hand, Bahai has a very adaptive and fluid structure that blends well and supports hegemony of the dominating powers.
BTW, I thought Bahai is a non-political faith(!?!?) but you say:
"نکته من هم همین است که دین بهائی با حکومتهای غیرمردمی و خودکامه اختلافی بارز دارد
"
How can you say such a thing?

This is REALLY interesting! Now you are saying Baha'is have oppressed mullas (akhunds) during Qajar and Pahlavi periods? Read this article and feel ashamed of the way you think:

گفتمان بهائی در ایران مدرن
Kavian S. MIlaniSun Dec 23, 2007 07:58 AM PST
یه ایرانی گرامی
با سپاس
نکته من هم همین است که دین بهائی با حکومتهای غیرمردمی و خودکامه اختلافی بارز دارد و به همین دلیل در دوران مشروطیت و پیش از آن در میان عصر قاجار و در دوران پهلوی دولت و روحانیت شیعه بهائیان را سرکوب کردند. برای پر کردن خلا و کاستی ناشی از برخورد سنت و مدرنیته دین بهائی جوابگوی نیازهای حضور موفق ایران بود ولی روحانیت شیعه که منافع خود را در خطر می دید و برای کسب هژمونی و استیلای کامل تلاش می کرد دین بهائی را سد راه خود دید و علیه آن وارد عمل شد. این روند امروز هم ادامه دارد.
تاسف بارتر این است که ما به گدایی اندیشه های غرب رفتیم.
موفق باشید

Jenab Kavian,
by ye Irani (not verified) on Sat Dec 22, 2007 09:35 PM PSTOne can surely parallel the tactics o Bahai faith administrators with that of zionists. You don't believe it? Just take a look at how they deal with aligning themselves with various political currents to reach the objectives. In recent decades you can find that how they have synchronized the vatious holidays of Jewish community to go with Christianity.
Surly, they have found their role models.
For me, it does not matter who should copy who. What matters is that there has to be value in what we do. We will not live in peace and prosperity (All mankind not just some selfish exploiting minds) unless we shed the bad values and practice good values.
I think Bahais lost outstanding opportunity after revolution. so, it's natural why you should be against Mollahs. Mollahs and Bahais have existential conflict. Do not forget what Bahais have done to Mollahs during Qajar and Pahlavi governments.

REPLY : WHO SHOULD IMITATE WHOM & SOME COMMENTS
by Farbors Maleknasri M.D. (not verified) on Sat Dec 22, 2007 10:57 AM PSTI would say: EITHER NOR. because each nation has its own conditions culture tradition and geographical position. So I think it is best for each nation to try to find its own way according to the prerequisites which are given. For example so much I would find it positive to forbid consuming alcoholics in the public so litte i have found a way and a possibility for the most western countries to practice it. millions of westerns earn they life through handling with alcoholics. besides the devils have succeeded to turn the worlds of holly Christ so that as if he had recommended drinking alcoholics. In the ISLAMIC REPUBLIC of IRAN it was no problem at all to get rid of this - up to my opinion - bad habit and whipp it away from the public. Partly because of the Religion. But at least also because the most benefits of alcohol trade and industry was in the hands of strangers. Food supply to 90% and Medicinsupply to 100% was also in the hand of strangers up to 1978/79. Now is the lucky Iranian nation in a position that can for example export wheat to egypt and other items to other countries. All because of the Blessings of thier revolution.
Then is the Farsi Speech: KHALGH RA TAGHLIDESHAN BAR BAAD DAAD............Imitating brings no Heal. every nation must make its own experiences. The honourable Iranian nation - I mean the ones who have founded thier IALAMIC REPUBLIC, live there and are willing to protect it - has made very bitter experiences till it could achieve what it has today. The Iraki nation would handle contrary to what it handled 1980. Probably they would have made thier own Islamic republic. The afghanis wanted to make thiers but the "Glorious" USSR, having allready consulted the great satan, changed the plan. After all these Thought I mean "IRANIAN" should better not be the place to accelerate the differences. The differences are just of a artificial kind. the Decisionmakers do not get hurt and the bloggers are not helped if I would also start with earthy words and say bad things about this akhound or that President. I sometimes mention the great satan. One can take the positive part GREAT if she/he pleases! Greeting

by Abarmard on Sat Dec 22, 2007 10:04 AM PSTUnfortunately Iranians are quick to judge and slow to read
and learn. That has been the number one reason why we have never learned to
admire our own home grown greatness. I don't know anything about Baha’i
religion and thoughts, so my next task is to find more about it. Do you have any
suggestion for good books?
comment for the person who called these words rubbish
by shahink (not verified) on Sat Dec 22, 2007 09:32 AM PSTComment for the person (anonymous) who started his words with cursing, referring to Dr. Sadeghzadeh's words as rubbish: Your negatively charged words reflect a prejudice that by its very nature blinds you. Can you see how you have been controled/managed/subjected to all sorts of self-righteousness and hatred against non-Muslims? Can't you see how much your reaction is similar to that of the akhunds? Your interest in Cyrus and his charter his just an unconscious cover up for the prejudice that is embeded deep done to your bones.
These words seem JAFANG only
by T.L (not verified) on Sat Dec 22, 2007 06:29 AM PSTThese words seem JAFANG only to those who do not understand them. I am very glad to read Mr. Kavian Milani's article. The above anonymous post comes from someone with a fake nationalism plus deeply rooted (yet concealed) Sh'ia bigotry. One of those people who do whatever Islam has forbidden, but as soon as it comes to hearing one word about the Baha'i Faith all their prejudice is worse than mullas who at least do not claim to be openminded and lovers of Cyrus' Human Rights charter.
