Does Baha'i have any specific Native American spiritual concepts in its teachings, and I'm not talking about generalized wisdom platitudes found in most every religion.
Does Baha'i recognize that Muhammad based his teachings on religious myths taken as real history?
Does Baha'i recognize a new prophesy-bearer or has its founder too, just like the other Abrahamics, attempted to shut down the voice of further prophesy in order to protect his revelation?
If Baha'i held real spiritual authority, it would have manifested itself by now, but it too has boxed itself into a non-universal religion by promoting family members over the general membership. Same fate that ruins the universality of Muhammad's Islam and Ahmadiyyah Islam. There was no family of Jesus that inherited special status despite a popular fictitious movie. |
Wow, I am impressed by how you articuated that thought! YES, the worst down fall of Islam is the family rule thing. That caused a major division and you made an excellent point that Jesus didn't pass on any eletism or special authority to his heirs. Got to run and I hate to leave your thought stimulating comments.
