Some somber news

The story describes the Baha`i Faith as a "breakaway sect of Islam", when in fact Islamic courts around the world have long recognized the independence of the Baha`i Faith from Islam. Quote from above news link: Saturday, December 24th, 2005 "LONDON, December 24 (IranMania) - The United States marked the death of an imprisoned leader of the Baha'i faith in Iran by blasting Tehran for the "systematic oppression" of religious minorities, according to AFP. Deputy State Department spokesman Adam Ereli said Washington condemned the persecution of Zabihullah Mahrami, who died of unknown causes on December 15 after 10 years in prison. He was 59." |
