Solution to the problems of humanity lies ...

However, it should be recognized that the ultimate solution to the problems of humanity lies not in penalties and punishments, but rather in spiritual education and illumination. Abdu'l-Baha has written:
 It is incumbent upon human society to expend all its forces on the education of the people, and to copiously water men's hearts with the sacred streams that pour down from the Realm of the All-Merciful, and to teach them the manners of Heaven and spiritual ways of life, until every member of the community of man will be schooled, refined, and exalted to such a degree of perfection that the very committing of a shameful act will seem in itself the direst infliction and most agonizing of punishments, and man will fly in terror and seek refuge in his God from the very idea of crime, as something far harsher and more grievous than the punishment assigned to it. It is toward this goal that the community of the Greatest Name is striving, aided and reinforced by the limitless power of the Holy Spirit.

 Abdu'l-Baha, qouted in Letters of The Universal House of Justice.

    Asking again, what YOUR religion OR ones BEFORE it
    has ever achieved anything as the performance of
    the past is an indication of future performances ?

  2. Dear Anonymous,
    I have answered this question many many times.
    But where is the hearing ear?
    I will ask again when are you going to be kind enough to address my questions?
    Or are you going to ignore them?

    1. If you have ever read any of my comments you would have seen them.
      So now I am assured you have never read any of my comments.
      Go and read my comments, and see my questions.
      Here is one for you.
      Through your comments you have shown a great dislike towards Baha'i Gardens. I wonder why? All The Baha'i Places and bought, built and maintained by the donations from Baha'is throughout the world. Why do you care? It's not your money. You are not contributing towards any of it. So what's with anger and bad mouthing? They are open to all people from all walks of life, colour, back ground, religion ....
      What's wrong with people coming together in a beautiful garden and feel united?
      This must really get under your skin, since you can't even attract ONE SOUL.

  4. Dear Mehran,

    Did you get to compile your questions you always complain about ?

    Should you have questions, I will try to answer!

    But I know, it is just yet another excuse to divert attention,
    push your agenda and kick the can down the road.

    How typical!

  5. Regarding your question, I wonder why? Because I know your cult is a deceive-ful, dishonest that aims to use humanity with words.

      How is The Baha'i Faith using humanity?
