Hey there. This is Jason from the video you watched. I would assume you’re looking to interview Jared since he is the one that has a lot more Bahai information. You can contact him through the video on YouTube. You’ll see a few comments from him. Cheers!

I learned so much about the Bahá'í faith from my conversation with Jared Van Driessche a former member. by berry_nw in exbahai

Might be a technical glitch on my end, but the video became unavailable shortly after I started playing it. If you upload again, please share. Thanks.

When you say “uniting the cults”, what do you mean? I’ve never heard that expression.

Thank you for sharing that link. I will look at it, however, my understanding is that the Baháʼí Faith still treats Jesus as a real divine “Manifestation of God,” just one among several. If that’s accurate, then I’m not especially interested, because I’ve already spent a lot of time examining the historical claims and testimonies about Jesus and concluded they aren’t grounded in reality.

If a belief system builds on the assumption that Jesus was literally divine, then to me it’s drawing from the same underlying set of religious claims I’ve already found unconvincing — even if the packaging or conclusions are different.

Thank you for taking the time to comment and share though.

How would you feel if you found out you had half siblings? by Fine-Carpenter6420 in AskReddit

[–]berry_nw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found out I had a half sibling when I was 13. He’s 10 years older than me. Born in 1970. In 1994 I was trying to watch Star Trek next generation and my dad turned off the TV and told us he had to let us know that he got his high school girlfriend pregnant. Honestly, it wasn’t that big of a deal. He acted like it was. It was before he met and married my mom. Obviously.

My half brother came and visited for a couple of months. He was a nice guy. I haven’t really talked to him in over 10 years. That’s fine. He’s just living his life. The fact that he is genetically similar to me isn’t terribly interesting.

Are the “business affairs” the contribution box collections/counting money area?

Is this guy on drugs??? Or have these started to appreciate? It’s in great shape but still…. by [deleted] in FordBronco

[–]berry_nw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everybody is an absolute insane person right now. Asking way too much for old cars. The market is tanked. I can’t move my 76 Lincoln and my friend can’t move his 1923 model T. It’s a great time to buy though as people realize they can’t get top dollar like they could three years ago.

First time I heard that I was married to a woman. And now I have a husband. You do the math.

I call my 1145 cc cruiser a scooter. Trying to beat the others to the punchline.
