again with the hope that the guidance of Baha;u;llah will awaken
them. Warmest regards to all.........Gio

"Consort with all men, O people of Baha, in a spirit of friendliness
and fellowship. If ye be aware of a certain truth, if ye possess a
jewel, of which others are deprived, share it with them in a language
of utmost kindliness and goodwill. If it be accepted, if it fulfill
its purpose, your object is attained. If anyone should refuse it,
leave him unto himself, and beseech God to guide him. Beware lest ye
deal unkindly with him. A kindly tongue is the lodestone of the hearts
of men. It is the bread of the spirit, it clotheth the words with
meaning, it is the fountain of the light of wisdom and understanding."
(Baha'u'llah, Epistle to the Son of the Wolf, p. 15)

" Likewise, when you meet those whose opinions differ from your
own, do not turn away your face from them. All are seeking truth, and
there are many roads leading thereto. Truth has many aspects, but it
remains always and forever one.
Do not allow difference of opinion, or diversity of thought to
separate you from your fellow-men, or to be the cause of dispute,
hatred and strife in your hearts.
Rather, search diligently for the truth and make all men your
friends " (Abdu'l-Baha, Paris Talks, p. 53)

BAHAIM Tactics & Techniques

1. As far as possible they hold back from responding
2. Then they claim no knowledge [of the given issue] by feigning
ignorance
3. After the exposer has exposed they will try to divert to secondary
and totally peripheral and irrelevent side-issues
4. The exposer is then painted as someone with an axe to grind,
biased, deluded (while they, the bahaim, still have not responded to
the main issue exposed)
5. Next they relate mental instability and insanity to the exposer
[i.e. shoot the messenger]
6. Then, the last tactic, is to wheel out several dubious personas on
the scene who claim to be neutral non-bahai observers who then begin
attacking the exposer as well as the issue exposed and supporting the
bahais and their issues as so-called non-bahais
