     Bahaismiran:

Abdul Baha says in the book "Makatib", vol. 3, p. 104: "One of the teachings of Bahaullah is religious prejudice, sexual prejudice, political prejudice; economic prejudice and homespun prejudice. If this prejudice and hostility is from religion, religion must cause friendship; otherwise it will be vain… So; according these new teachings, it will be necessary: 1- people mustn't be interested in what have selected or mustn't disagree with false and opposed religions 2- people mustn't be intensely interested in the homeland they live, 3- A nation mustn't be bond with a definite policy.

     In Mirza Baha'is creed; in order for people to be free from religious and homespun bonds or other imitations, such prejudices and imitations must be removed.

     Yes, when the commandments and laws are different based on time and place expediencies and based on discretion of the members of the universal house of justice and also when the religious commandments are accepted based on comparing with various and limited wisdoms of people and when the previous commandments and religions are abolished and the next ones depends on founding the universal house of justice it will be necessary for the religious prejudices to be removed in the first stage.

     The Excellency Mirza hasn’t been contented with such freedom and asked his followers to be free in all aspects (of religion, homeland, economy, sex and policy).

     In the book "Makatib", Vol. 3, p. 104, Abdul Baha says: "One of the teachings of Bahaullah is religious prejudice, sexual prejudice, political prejudice, economic prejudice; and homespun prejudice… If this prejudice and hostility is from religion, religion must cause friendship; otherwise it will be vain…

     Again on page 276 it is said that: The following teachings are of the new teachings of quitting religious prejudices, sexual prejudices, and political prejudices.

1)   Consequently; according to new teachings, it is necessary:
people mustn't be interested in what have selected or mustn't disagree with false and opposed religions.

2)   People mustn't be intensely interested in the homeland in which they reside.

3)   A nation mustn't be bond with a definite policy.

4)   It mustn't be persevered or intensely been in favor in the path of economies of a country or nation.

5)   The followers of various religions mustn't be bigoted against each other.

6)   People must abandon ethnic and sexual bigotry.

7)   According to Excellency Mirza, people must make themselves free from these bigotries and enthusiasms and must make themselves free from all bonds.

So, Mirza Baha says: The aim and the last object is removing difference among nations and removing privileges and destroying homespun allocations and national and religious interests.

     According to this new teaching: An Iranian person mustn't step on the path of development and special progress of Iran and a Muslim mustn't show special interest in the religion of Islam. The people of a nation or a country mustn't try for economy and policy which are specially belonged to a nation or a country. Generally speaking, the world people must be free from all bonds and privileges.

     This vain teaching must be related to the relationships of aliens and must be included in their teachings and inspirations. Indeed, this teaching is the best and most complete one for decadence of a nation.

     Meanwhile, the Excellency Mirza has wanted to say a word to attract irreligious, incontinent and unbridled youth.

    Bravo! 19th century prophet!!!
