Independent Investigation of Truth for People Raised as Baha’is

Baha’is are expected to raise their children as Baha’is – to give them training and Baha’i education aimed at giving them a Baha’i identity from a very early age. There is even a Baha’i prayer to whisper into the ears of infants. The one thing they don’t teach their children is how to be objective about doing an independent investigation of truth.

It is interesting to me that one of the basic principles of the Baha’i Faith is to do this independent investigation of truth, yet most Baha’i parents don’t think to encourage this in their children because as parents, they are emotionally invested in trying to get their children to sign a declaration card to become a Baha’i at age 15. If the kids don’t sign that card, the parents are devastated and feel themselves to be failures at their children’s Baha’i education and upbringing.

Last night I decided to try to record something about this, and it turned out better than I expected, so I made a video out of it.

I'm a former Baha'i; now a Christian.

    Thank you for producing this video. Its good that you are making statements of ethical dilemnas you feel you need to express. My blog which might not be allowed a direct link here, ( bahaipdxwitness1984 dot wordpress dot com)’s core statements has been continuously upgraded with all the names of people of my past totally doxxed as the pedophile enabling scum they were, but I also discovered the real “Glory of God” “Baha’u’llah” wants pedophilia to be destroyed where he writes: “We shrink, for very shame, from treating of the subject ofboys.”(Baha’u’llah, The Kitab-i-Aqdas, p. 58 Unfortunately the hypocrits followers are so insane that I was surrounded by that to the point where I see little choice than voluntarily demoting myself to an admirer of Baha’u’llah rather than a Card carrying member of the Bahai Faith because I was surrounded by hypocrisy. I still maintain The Bahai Faith is a beautiful revolutionary improvement specifying a very comprehensive and complete “prescription for living” of [Universal ethical principles or what Mark Passio might call “natural law” over the vast majority of religions today especially fraud forms of Islamic dictatorships and fraud forms ofJudeo/Christianity/ or Church-ianity Insanity. I will continue to advocate and study Bahai principles and write the Bahai’s own Universal House of Justice on Mount Carmel about common goals to restore and promote the traditional nuclear family of 1 man and 1 woman as consensual adults (husband and wife) and completely annihilate all the perversions of creeping gender estrangement and the slippery slope lies of “born that way” lgbtq off the face of the earth and would gladly be part of a Christian group that sees me as a Spiritual seeker and admires Jesus Christ too. Thank you for your message. https://bahaipdxwitness1984.wordpress.com/2020/08/30/big-quote-where-shoghi-effendi-kind-of-answers-my-own-statements-and-concerns/

“Don’t let anyone capture you with empty philosophies and high-sounding nonsense that come from human thinking and from the spiritual powers of this world, rather than from Christ.” (Colossians 2:8)

I lost thirty years of my life to the Baha’i cult. I hope that won’t happen to you.
