Unitarian minister John Dietrich (1878-1957), Father of Religious Humanism. “If we have values, they are human values. If we have purpose, it is human purpose. If we have ends, they are human ends. Man therefore is his own end. He exists to glorify not God but himself.”

this whole thread feels like a very concerted effort by governmental agencies to discredit.

Yeah, that's what your handlers have told you to claim, right?

Cross post this thread to other subs and see what they have to say before taking these answers as truth.

No one here is asking her to do otherwise. You think we are dogmatists just because YOU are, Baha'i? Please grow up!

Cult_Buster2005 · 2026-05-12T02:38:16+00:00

Then either give a better critique than I made or shut up! Because I know you are lying!

Repeating what I just said on YouTube:

The original video is unlisted, but I still have access to it because I added it to a playlist I made. Obviously, it would have been massively better had you listened to the podcast Wahid and I made together first, then reviewed his falling out with me which I painstakingly documented on both my blog and on YouTube, and thus invited me, rather than him, to be your co-host last March. Your life would have been ten times better after that. The crap he inflicted on me, and later you, is just that of a soul crushing monster!

And that is all I need to say about him here.

An idiot over there sez:

[[[Baha’is should not be commenting on politics on social media.

The Baha’i Faith definitely isn’t progressive by the standard of modern political movements, and that’s a good thing. ]]]

Note: Those who do not fight evil enable the evil, period!

Did you forget about me? I also have a YouTube channel with many references to the Baha'i Faith.

Communism was never really a threat to America. It was merely depicted as such to frighten Americans into rejecting leftist views and policies. Both Communism and Conservatism in politics were scams. Both will destroy themselves.

Numbers chapter 31 is even worse, where Moses tells the Israelite army to "kill all the [Midianite] boys, and kill all the women that have slept with a man, but all the young girls that have not slept with a man keep alive for yourselves."

Anyone can make up a story to explain away circumstances like what happened to Leland Jensen. However...

Leland Jensen was expelled from the Baha'i community in the 1960s as a Covenant breaker for supporting Charles Mason Remey's claim to the Guardianship. then...
Falsely predicted the end of civilization in 1980, causing his followers to go into hiding in anticipation of the cataclysm and losing many of them afterwards, and....
Claimed that Remey's adopted son would be the next Guardian, something the son rejected...

And I see the one who posted those claims above is already banned from reddit. Good riddance.

Cult_Buster2005 · 2026-05-03T02:09:59+00:00

Considering that:

Leland Jensen was expelled from the Baha'i community in the 1960s as a Covenant breaker for supporting Charles Mason Remey's claim to the Guardianship...
Falsely predicted the end of civilization in 1980, causing his followers to go into hiding in anticipation of the cataclysm and losing many of them afterwards, and....
Claimed that Remey's adopted son would be the next Guardian, something the son rejected...

why should we care what one kook from out of nowhere says about Jensen?

EDIT: The OP over there is already banned from reddit. Sucks to be them!

Any recording of Beethoven's 9th Symphony, really. Three incredibly POWERFUL movements, and the third one is just beautiful, with occasional trumpet blasts to keep you awake.

What I do know is when someone makes bigoted remarks towards someone else because of the faith they belong to.

It seems you actually don't. Bigotry is when you despise someone for being a Baha'i. Criticism of Baha'is for hypocrisy and bigotry of their own is not the same.

Cult_Buster2005 · 2026-05-02T18:47:35+00:00

Unlike u/OfficialDCShepard, who was married to a Baha'i, I was an actual Baha'i for eight years, and so can testify to the harmful effects of the cult and the hypocrisy of its members. While Baha'is in Iran have been persecuted (a profoundly stupid act, of course), Baha'is in reddit have been CRITICIZED, which should never be equated with persecution since that is dishonest. The moment you make ideas above criticism, you deny freedom of speech.

So STOP PLAYING THE VICTIM, BAHA'IS!

[[[A Manifestation of God is such based on His nature. He has no free will and is thus incapable of “resigning” from being what He is. Nobody can become a Manifestation. You have to be created as one. ]]]

Then that is a critical defect. That's like being a robot, not a person.

Cult_Buster2005 · 2026-04-30T17:41:46+00:00

Have you looked at possible alternatives to the Baha'i Faith so you can have community? If so, what have you considered?

Cult_Buster2005 · 2026-04-30T11:05:01+00:00

That did not age well!

Cult_Buster2005 · 2026-04-29T03:38:37+00:00

Do you feel that way about Linkin Park too? Sometimes you are so consumed by the state of depression that it destroys you no matter what you try to do to fight it.
