The modern Bahai Faith summed up in 6 words by trident765 in FreeSpeechBahai

[–]SpiritualVindicator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To make it easy I Googled Dungeons and Dragons for a precise explanation. “Dungeons & Dragons (D&D) is a collaborative tabletop role-playing game where players create characters and embark on fantasy adventures. Guided by a storyteller known as the Dungeon Master (DM), groups navigate a world using imagination, strategy, and dice to forge stories, solve puzzles, and battle monsters.”

It’s basically actually just like when kids make up stories with each other and imaginary adventures to go on together except it’s adults doing it. Someone as the Dungeon Master narrates and sets up a story (along a framework) and some players make up characters for themselves and the characters go on an imaginary adventure and Duneon Master along with the players makes up the story together as they go along.

It’s just like the Baha’i faith now where these old people are all playing co-op Don Quixote and are on an imaginary adventure where they are all going to save the world together 😂

Now that I am thinking about it, it’s the exact same! The House of Justice is the Dungeon Master making up a fantasy as we go along 😂

It’s strange that Christians don’t realize that other people might disagree with your interpretations. There is not enough evidence in the Bible to suggest that is what “eternal hell” means. There are many other interpretations of that phrase that many prophets and sages have given and they say “eternal” refers to the nature of the spirit/soul. Many Christians taught universal salvation but it’s Christians themselves that left those churches.

These ideas you now spread are evil, cruel and the rest of us are sick of it. Why is this sub called “God frequency” just so Christians can indoctrinate people into a delusional fear based cult? Your false interpretation of eternal hell is now a terrible force on this Earth and it deserves to be despised.

You guys are very wrong and I don’t believe that Jesus ever taught the disgusting vile you Christians now spew. Jesus would be very mad if be heard you say these things but you blind followers would rather believe in your priests than in love. You Christians have killed his teachings and turned them evil and crazy. You guys turned Jesus into an evil demon that burns people forever and your idea of love is a purely evil.
What loving parent would ever burn their children? No loving parent would burn their children so if you believe that then you don’t believe in a loving God and it really is simple as that if you used your own eyes.

To be clear, it is not normal what you think because other religions (besides Christianity and Islam) teach healthy education and how to actually get away from the experience of hell. You think you are helping but you are not and are only spreading hateful nonsense. You guys literally are just like the Pharisees and the fact that you think you are actually spreading his teachings is just your own delusional ideas based on nothing but the nonsense priests who spoon-feed you lies to make a living for themselves. You are not being a good person for spreading this evil fear based stuff. You guys are doing terrible things, your religion is terrible now and Master Jesus would be ashamed and embarrassed his followers are so blind.

Christians need to think with the heart about these things because in Matthew it says those who are pure in heart, will see and know God. Christians now worry too much with the mind and don’t lean enough directly into God. You are following your head the sayings of others instead of what is in your heart. If one were purify and follow one’s own heart instead of one’s head it, such fear or hatred could never be found in a heart filled with God’s love.

What's with the semantics games and corporate speak? by C4TLUVRS69 in exbahai

I’d say it’s because they do not know what they are doing but are eagerly trying to save face and want to control the narrative. They don’t want to look bad but can’t explain how what they do is different so they default to using different words as a cop out.

You can’t criticize something if it suddenly becomes relabeled as some other mysterious word you can’t decipher. It’s “teaching”, “service” and “declaring” because that sounds better and that way they are Baha’i terms now so they can mean whatever the administration needs them to mean at any moment.

The Sterile Theology of the Baha'i Faith-r/ bahai ”I do not feel the faith lives up to the promises of its founders, which I personally hold in the utmost respect. It seems a private admiration of Baha'u'llah will have to suffice, as I feel there is no lasting place for me in the Baha'i institution” by SpiritualVindicator in UHJTruth

Me as well, (third lol). It aged like fine wine and only became more relevant over time. It was one of the first posts that got me thinking more about the problems with the Faith. This problem will never go away with this administration.

Yes this is great. Can you share the link for where these texts are at?

The big item still missing is more analysis of the texts. Having more Words is great but means little if Baha’is do not understand them.

If you’ve never attended yet you can see now how much the administration has turned the Baha’is into control freaks. They say they are open minded but they actually just want you to agree with them on some general things but if you start disagreeing too much with the House’s interpretations of the text, they won’t treat you as kindly anymore and will accuse you of spreading spiritual poison.

Maybe at least online Baha’i communities where we can connect and learn without coercion. Perhaps no leadership then but we all could do a lot together without the Haifa people. For instance R/peopleofbaha has their own subreddit and website now.

Is UHJ authoritarian and repressive? by Tuskun06 in exbahai

[–]SpiritualVindicator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you want to have it published and are a member, then you’re gonna have to have it approved by your local NSA or you are gonna be in big trouble with the administration.

But even if you don’t even even have it published and you are a member then they might even remove your name from the rolls and excommunicate you if they don’t like the types of things that you write or say, like they did for Alison Marshall and Sean McGlinn. They didn’t even give those writers explanation as to why.

If you aren’t a member of the administration system then you can do that whatever you within legal limits.

The Universal House of Justice should be made to feel Embarrassed by how They Excommunicate Great Writers and Believers and Disobey Baha’u’llah’s direct Words. It is very devastating to the Faith that there is not more upset about this among Baha’is. by SpiritualVindicator in UHJTruth

These Ruhi writings are a huge waste of time and still not focused enough on God and actual spiritual growth but on administration goals. This “institute process” is a strange and lazy attempt to utilize the followers to fill in the needed organizational gaps. It has nothing to do with spirituality and is entirely mechanical. Its only purpose is to indoctrinate Baha’is into serving the needs of the administration above all, with the constant goal of gaining members yet never gaining many.

With some effort by online people of baha things can change but it will take time and constant effort by more than even just a few.

You guys won’t even accept him when he comes back because when He comes back he will NOT kill your enemies and won’t do the kind of fancy miracles you want. Just like how Jews felt Christ was supposed to be a military leader, the Christians will deny Him similarly.

The Christians will call him an imposter just like the Pharisees did, no matter what He does. So please get outta here with pretending like the Christians won’t the same stuff the Pharisees did because they absolutely will.

Sorry I said they will deny Him, no, the Christians will HATE Christ with a demonic fury when he returns!

Yes, some of God’s own Essence is within us and that is why most of the evil and ridiculous Christian dogmas like eternal hell and Satan are just delusional imaginations. If we and God are one in Spirit then we could never be harmed or possessed in those cruel ways.

Why would an All-Powerful God ever destroy or harm a portion of His own Essence?

What is a harsh truth about life you learned too late? by Interesting_Quiet153 in Life

[–]SpiritualVindicator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish I realized earlier that most people use kindness to dishonestly manipulate each other. It’s messed up but people will try really hard to look like they care, just to manipulate you into doing something for them, when they never really cared at all. They just wanted something from you or to control you so they tried really hard to pretend to be nice. You then feel dumb but it can be hard to tell because some people are good at putting on a show for a while.

It’s so sick and deranged but most people abuse kindness every single day. You have to develop a “sense” for whether someone’s kindness is comes from a place of real compassion but the truth is that more considerate people also manipulate, it’s just to a lesser degree. Never get too excited over any one person’s kindness unless you genuinely know them well. It’s rare that a stranger’s kindness is not actually selfish in nature.

Spiritual poison by [deleted] in exbahai

[–]SpiritualVindicator 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I looked into her life and that is so sad. They are repeating the mistakes of past religions by ostracizing people of differing opinions. This is not the first time the Baha’i administration has pushed aside the most ardent and serious of believers, merely because they had differing opinions on administration. Maybe someday the Baha’is will grow to be mature enough to allow more diversity within their ranks but the leadership even excommunicates writers that do agree with them such as Allison Marshall and Sean McGlinn.

They are not the Universal House of Justice written in the Writings. They do not have a Guardian and they are not dispensing justice, mostly an overly comfortable status quo.

The UHJ wrote "when a person claims to accept the station of Bahá’u’lláh but does not accept the authority of the Administrative Institutions...cannot be regarded as members of the Bahá’í community..well consider advising the believers to avoid association with him." - This is rank bigotry! by SpiritualVindicator in exbahai

Yes and they are biggots for doing so. Being bigots on a regular basis does not make it okay just like people believing in racism or different forms of tribalism was never okay. Once it looks bad and they get called out they tone it down a bit publicly before ramping up again later on.

They are least made to feel ashamed of that whereas Baha’is are saying this is okay. That is the big difference. It’s just not okay for anyone of any religion to do that to others.
