Baha'is have been some of the most loving, compassionate, and peaceful people I have met on the planet. If the government worries that the Baha'i Faith intends on being a "successful" religion in this world, well what religion <em>doesn't</em> intend to be successful? If there are some prophecies that indicate the Baha'i Faith will be a major religion in Iran, that doesn't mean the Baha'is are going to <em>force</em> God's hand to make it happen, or to speed up its process. If it's going to happen, it's going to happen. You can fight the ocean coming your way, or you can ride its waves.

Lord Kavi: Thank you. It is wonderful to hear this and I believe it is true. I guess those speeches about "Baha'i danger" give rise to more curiosity about Baha'is :) I hope you are safe, and wish that the day comes soon for Iran to see freedom. In words of Baha'u'llah: "Let nothing grieve thee, O Land of Ta (Tehran), for God hath chosen thee to be the source of the joy of all mankind." Neil: exactly! :) Thank you…

I've seen those University teachers' speech against Bahai's faith at university whom were connected to government. And also have seen those muslim and atheist students who were challenging these professors and never believed in his speechs. It was amazing that these speech always took place to inform students about Bahai's DANGER!!! The result always was inverse! I believe there is a big difference bewteen what people in Iran believe and think and what the government thinks and acts. Great article Daniela,
