Re: A Prophet before one thousand years? - genetic lines

[Scott Saylors]

So who do we dig up to get the DNA baseline? The Bab, since we have no direct descendants left, for sure - we need both his "Y" Chromosome DNA and his matrilineal mitochondrial material. Then we'll need the same for the line of Baha`u'llah - so we'll need to disinter either Bahas`u'llah or Abdu'l Baha.

 

I think you might appreciate the idea that this might be considered desecration by many.

Scott

For you a “historian” is the same as a “bahá’í historian” or

a “bahá’í who is an historian”? – why you worry?

 

Islam has something like fifteen centuries but not all people

 of the world have siyyids’ roots. Have you?

Yeah, because the wore special turbans. ;-}

I think I’m getting your point… but with technology we can

 trace these blood lines, don’t you think?

Does that need to be understood literally? I
think the common Baha'i
belief that Zoroaster, Buddha and Krishna are
from the seed of Ab! raham
is probably a myth.

Yeah, but for example:

 Adam, Enoch, Noah, Abraham, Moses, Jesus (“city-State unity”)

 and Muhammad (“nation unity” sealing Prophets) are from

 Israel’s prophetic root.

So, Abraham is the seed of all them (Israel’s root).

As you know (not common history)

 there WERE Prophets in all parts of the world, but for some reason

 Israel’! s root is the main root.

 My logic sense says that Abraham has nothing to do with

 Wiracocha, an ancient Prophet of my country Peru.
