I'm glad I moved away from London into the countryside, where I can to breathe.

Thanks , saved to watch later.

Very sorry to hear that. In the 1950s we used to holiday there and absolutely loved the beach and sea.

@RJM I am inclined to believe you since I have been on the internet. I first came into contact with Bahais when I was living in Israel and later on in England, all BI(before internet) and spent many hours with them in discussions and friendship. I can't even remember them ever even mentioning...

Your not kidding. There is one whose centre is where I live. (A Buddhist Matraiya version) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_people_claimed_to_be_Jesus

PMFJI Could you briefly explain what Revelation says regarding the one world religion or give me the reference to look up. (I don't have time presently to read the whole book).

Actually, no flesh, no person. Look after the flesh and be your best self. That's the best service to humanity. It's nothing to do with any concept of 'absolute truth'. When I was younger (teens) we used to laugh at our grandparents who would all say 'As long as you've got your health'. There...

(Well, I do not believe in the one God.) Putting that aside, I just did a quick review of some of your posts and you say "The source of all truth from God to us are the Manifestations of God, who are the Prophets / Messengers." and I have seen you claim that Baháʼu'lláh is 'The Father' (as in...

You will never get me to believe that the great messengers/holymen etc are but people who had higher consciousness than the majority around them. I think many abused this and allowed themselves to be worshipped as higher-than-human beings.

When I lived in Jerusalem and was a strong believer, all past saints/prophets places became holy and I used to meditate in all Christian churches, particularly the garden of Gethsemane and also Jesus's birth place in Bethlehem. Also, the Western Wall and (allegedly)King David's Tomb, which has...

Nanak Dev, aka Guru Nanak is said to be the founder of Sikhism. He was critical of both Hinduism and Islam and had followers from both traditions. He was alive at the same time as Kabir. In fact the main Sikh scripture, which contains the writings of the 10 Sikh Gurus also contains many writing...

The Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson (died 1994) was considered by some of his followers to be The Messiah (and probably a few still do). I was a member for a short period but never bought the Messiah stuff.

The whole intention of my post was to say that quarrelling about Messengers/Saints etc is really not interfaith(imo). Surely the messages are more important. There are many other forums where people can argue that their messenger is the one true messenger. I only mention Kabir as an example. I...

You left out "three's a crowd'"...(I couldn't resist that one):)

I have noticed over my years online that super-zealots of various groups actually like being severely criticised, even banned. In their own minds it makes them a martyr.

Hmmm :>)....I should have put the word 'rhetorically' after the question. ETA My point was that the disagreements about messengers seem to be a big stumbling block to discussions about truth/peace.

How will you get people to agree who are the Messengers? For instance, the closest person to a Messenger I have, is Kabir who has admirers/followers/devotees who are non-theists (like myself) as well as strong believers (in God/gods). I love Kabir because he spoke directly to the people around...

Gosh. It sounds like you have more than a full time job already. Kudos.

Indeed, well worth a visit. I was there in the 1970s with some friends and had a great meditation.

Well, when I was born my mother was 40, so you never know.:)
