Certainly not through messengers. That can't work unless the messages simply couldn't have been written by a human being. Imagine how spectacular a message would be if it authored by a deity who created the universe. Yet there isn't a sentence in any holy book today that couldn't have been written by a human being, and anyone today could easily improve on any of the holy books that people still follow. So what does that say when anyone can improve any holy book, but very few can improve on a book by Newton or Hawking? It says the latter are smarter than the authors of the former.
You still don't seem to understand that atheists don't believe in gods, and want and expect nothing from them. What we want and expect is coherent arguments for gods before believing in them. The faithful simply don't have them as this thread attests.
You must be using a different definition of wise than I do. If one wants to be honored and revered, or even believed, he should make himself known.
Would you like to hear the results of the test? I'm with the majority on this one. And are you sure that you're fair-minded and not biased in favor of belief? An honest appraisal of the evidence offered finds it not evidence of a deity.
Not necessary. I can't prove it false, either, but I still reject it as truth because it hasn't been demonstrated to be correct, either.
Humanity's principal reaction to Baha'u'llah - skepticism - doesn't surprise me a bit. Most people simply don't consider great what you call great. More surprising is why people think that his life or words aren't ordinary.
There is nothing exemplary to me about a life lived spreading religious ideas. I consider it a life lived unwisely if one could have actually been of service to others instead. What did you do for a living? Did you help people? Maybe you were a furniture maker. If so, you gave humanity more than itinerant preachers. We have a few animals rescue and neutering groups around where I live that reduce suffering. Everybody volunteering there is leading a more exemplary life than such people. In the meantime, the local priests do nothing equivalent. Almost everybody I know (not know of, but continue to socialize with) has lived a more productive life than they would have as professional religionists.
I realize that that comment is offensive to some, but refute it if it's wrong. If it's correct, isn't it worth knowing? Isn't one doing a service pointing it out to those who simply assume that those who say God and love a lot are really living exemplary lives so much so that we should recognize them as messengers of a god? That's what's being by many here including you. If it's correct, then you can show why. If it's wrong, then you can't.
Are you sure that you want to propose that as the test of Baha'u'llah's message? Have you seen what Iran is like? They're still decadent and living in a failed state.
We are to recognize God by assuming God sent us a message? More of circular argumentation. Are not interested in reaching those who know that this argument is flawed and its conclusion unsound? Are you not interested in being correct yourself? This is not the way to do that.
And more circularity.
