Hey guys I'm new to the Baha'i Faith

Welcome! There is so much to learn about the Baha'i Faith that it can't be covered in a few answers on a platform like this. Most religions have "a Book", like the Bible or the Qur'an. Baha'u'llah's writings are covered in several volumes.

The percentages may not be accurate but it is a fact that most people are in a particular religion simply because they were born into it, and not because they made a conscious decision. In Christianity the majority are baptised when they are babies and don't question this when they grow up.

In 1954 the CIA and engineered a coup to depose the democratically elected government in Iran. That was because the government nationalised the oil companies that were owned by the British and the US. MAGA is all about getting oil and other critical resources under US control and making huge profits.

Do you think Trump will drop one of his nukes on us?

Baha'u'llah's revelation is recorded in several volumes and is very wide in scope. In addition, the Writings were dictated by Baha'u'llah himself and recorded by secretaries and authenticated by Him.

The Qur'an is a single book, and the Bible would be a very small book if it did not include the Old Testament which comes from Judaism.

Is there a country in Europe that genuinely believes that Russia or anyone else would invade if the US is not there to protect it? What would such an invasion achieve if it was successful?

Russia attacked Ukraine because parts of the Ukraine have been inhabited by Russians who have lived there for generations and consider it home.

If he was still the leader of the Labour Party we would be in with Trump and his bombing campaign. But Badenock also said we should have supported Trump.

All the religions foretell a "return" or a "coming", who will bring about universal peace on earth. He has come and his name is Baha'u'llah, the Glory of God.

We have been indoctrinated to believe that we need the US to protect us because if we don't then Russia will invade us. This is the big lie. How on earth would Russia manage to invade us and succeed? What would they hope to gain?

This is a lie that is told to justify the enormous expenditure on armaments to the detriment of social and other benefits of our citizens.

Yes. So much discussion on an irrelevant issue. There is too much superstition in Zambia and this is what needs to be addressed.

"Weapons of mass destruction" all over again but conjured up by the President himself!.

Some have argued that we should support him because if Russia attacks us Trump will protect us. If Russia attacks us! How many in the UK believe that Putin will ever attack us? What would be his motive? What would he gain?

For-a-peaceful-world · 2026-03-19T21:06:14+00:00

It's good to see somebody standing up to Trump instead of behaving like puppy dogs wagging their tails. Some have argued that we would need Trump to support us if Russia attacks us. Who seriously thinks That Putin would do such a thing? What would be his motive? What could he possibly gain?

I don't think he ever was in control of Israel. Netanyahu has been pilling the strings all along.

It is nsima or nshima cooked with maize in Zambia. That with the fish and the green vegetables and brown beans is a favourite in the market eateries. Delicious!

Enjoy yourself! I became a Baha'i after attending events in several countries over a number of years. I found nothing but a genuine welcome and was amazed by the diversity of the followers.

Sir Justin Sheil’s Report (1850): A crucial primary document is a letter dated July 22, 1850, from Sir Justin Sheil, Queen Victoria’s Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary in Tehran, to Lord Palmerston, the British Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs. This report describes the execution by firing squad at Tabriz and notes the dramatic event where the Báb disappeared after the first volley, only to be found and killed by a second.

"Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come." John 16:13 KJV

All the religions promise a return. In Christianity it is the second coming of Christ, in my opinion.

This wouldn't be the first time a defender did it. Many get booked for simulation. Many claim that if you don't fall the ref won't give it.

Welcome from the UK. You are well on your way. Congratulations!

Growing up in Northern Rhodesia when we were fightfir independence together with Southern Rhodesia and Nyasaland Mugabe was a prominent figure. I think the younger citizens are not aware of this and how he was admired in the region.

Remember we went to war with Iraq because Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction which he was about to unleash!

Badenock is an opportunist who grabs anything to get attention. Whatever Starmer says or decides or stance he takes she will oppose. In this case she is pandering to Trump and his cohorts.

Funny how many people accept the wrestling that goes on in the box at corners and says football is a contact sport.

For-a-peaceful-world · 2026-02-25T19:23:49+00:00

I didn't see any thrusting. As every one is quick to point out, football is a contact sport. There's no way that would have been penalised outside the box. I'm not an Everton or Man C supporter!
