    It would be up to the conscience of all people to make a choice, I cannot answer for them. The Pope is still Catholic. Regards Tony

    Building Bridges to the Unity of Humanity

    The world will not change with those type of comments, thus those comments just add to the conflict the world now faces. Do you have anything good to add, do you have a solution to share? Choose wisely. Regards Tony

    You sound angry, and have provides a reply in that light. There is no doubt that the United Nations needs to be granted the authority to enforce the resolutions it makes. May God's Will be done. (That will was given to us to love each other and live in peace). Regards Tony

    Building Bridges to the Unity of Humanity

    The suggestion by Abdul'baha was not asking people to change their faith, but to accept the divine origin of the Tanakh Prophets and both Jesus and Muhammad. Even the Pope can do that. Regards Tony

    Building Bridges to the Unity of Humanity

    That is a dishonest statement, I know that, because I know with that statement, you know nothing of either the Bab of Baha’u’llah's life. To make such a statement you should be aware of how Muhammad, the Bab and Baha'u'llah also changed and effected the lives of people of that time. Regards Tony

    True and False Prophets - Just and Honest Determination

    It was just one article. Jesus said Elijah always comes first, so there would have been an Elijah for Muhammad. Maybe the Muslims know the history, they can respond if they are reading this. The Elijah for Baha'u'llah was another Messenger the Bab, the Bab had two Elijah, one who became the...

    What if we accepted each others Religion?

    Then you will need to read the independent press reports, which were all mostly favourable. It maybe that records were kept by many that attended those talks, but I have not heard if any of them published their records. Luckily the Baha'i did. I actually just found some of them published, here...

    Building Bridges to the Unity of Humanity

    Still not addressing what was offered, as good advice, or not good advice that would solve many issues we face in this age. I am offering, and it is becoming more and more obvious, that you and many, will try every path of rejection, before they will say, hey that sounds like a good idea...

    No,not our way. I would offer we should do it God's Way, using the advice God has given us via the Messengers. The well-being of mankind, its peace and security, are unattainable unless and until its unity is firmly established. This unity can never be achieved so long as the counsels which the...

    What if we accepted each others Religion?

    Nothing in the press, but content about the talks, one newspaper posted the entire talk. Mahmúd's Diary is most likely a better source recording some reactions. https://bahai-library.com/zarqani_mahmuds_diary&chapter=8#n313 This is the Diary entries. Saturday, October 12, 1912 [San...

    What if we accepted each others Religion?

    Well done, I have it on my desk. Will let you know. But I must tell you you have interpreted what I said incorrectly. The response to that talk was most likely recorded by the Baha'i that were there are published in other places, not necessarily the news articles, but let's see, it may have...

    Building Bridges to the Unity of Humanity

    The response to the talks are irrelevant. It is therefore essence of the talk where the wisdom is found, not in how people responded to it. Remember the response to the Message of Jesus (All Messengers), who gives a hoot about those that rejected at that time the essence of the Messages they...

    Building Bridges to the Unity of Humanity

    One does not have to be a Baha'i, want to be a Baha'i and is not being asked to be a Baha'i, to note what was said and the wisdom it now reflects. It is a big "If only they had" done so. To say otherwise is being dishonest. One is only stating the obvious solution given in that talk, as being...

    True and False Prophets - Just and Honest Determination

    Elijah always comes first, it just may be that history did not see that significance and thus many was not looking. Here is one record for Muhammad. ".....One story that is accepted by most Islamic scholars and historians is the account of one of Prophet Muhammad’s trips to Syria. The story...

    What if we accepted each others Religion?

    Not able to research at this time. The talks were recorded in the press, there are independent news articles, someone has complied all these and put them in two books, 1000's of news articles. Volume 1 goes up to 1912. I have both volumes twice...

    Building Bridges to the Unity of Humanity

    This is only one Synagogue Abdul'baha talked at, and only one of the talks, all the others had the same theme and challenges, all these stories are recorded in detail in many works. One can look up the responses if they are interested. The response I make is one of unity, the talk is sound and...

    Verses such as these can guide us. 1 Thessalonians 5:21 "Test all things; hold fast to that which is good". Virtues and morality, being kind hearted, compassionate and forgiving are all good. Those are the teachings that bind us Regards Tony

    Abdu'l-Baha told them what they needed to know, is there any doubt about that wisdom now? Regards Tony

    What if we accepted each others Religion?

    The response was recorded, the response was predictable. Orthodoxy walked out, middle of the road complained and the progressive welcomed the talk in the Spirit it was given. Regards Tony

    True and False Prophets - Just and Honest Determination

    It that is an interest for you, all the Writings are available on Bahai.Org in the Library section. All the currently English translated works of the Bab and Baha'u'llah are available. One can bring them up online and search the texts. You may be interested in this link...
