what makes you so certain that Abdu'l-Baha envisioned a Universal House of Justice that would have a living Guardian serving on it all the time? I have not read all the posts in this thread, so I may be making a stupid comment here. I thought this too, until someone suggested to me that the guidance of the first Guardian as laid down in numerous letters could be seen as that there is still a Guardian, and that the Universal House of Justice consults with the Guardian when they consult his letters. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
