Here is a debate between a researcher searching in the field of Baha’ism and a Baha’i proselytizer in order to investigate violence and pacifism in this cult:

Researcher: Why do you follow Baha’ism blindly contrary to your slogans?!

The Baha’i proselytizer: No, it isn’t so. The teaching of removing bigotry is of our leaders inventive teachings[1].

The researcher: Why do you commemorate the Excellency Ali Muhammad Shirazi well if you aren’t bigoted. Your forged prophet writes concerning his book and commandments:

“فوالَّذی روحی و ذاتی بيده حرفٌ مِن البَيان لأحبُّ عندی عن كلّ مَن فی السموات و الأرض “

“I swear by the one whom my soul and essence are in his hand, a word of the Bayan (Ali Muhammad Shirazi’s book) is more popular to me than all exist in heavens and the earth.[2]”

The Baha’i proselytizer: Is there any difference between Bab’s creed and venerating his beliefs and the teaching of removing all prejudices?!

The researcher: The problem is that Baha’ism introduces itself as a peaceful and anti-war creed; while Abdul Baha confesses that the book Bayan consists of aggressive and warlike commandments: “Be fair, the commandments of the book Bayan (Ali Muhammad Shirazi’s book) are as follows: beheading all people on the earth and igniting all books and writings and conquering the east and west and destroying shrines.[3]”
