> how much emphasis on laws do Baha'is have?
>From the beginning of the Kitab-i-Aqdas:
"The first duty prescribed by God for His servants is the recognition of Him
Who
is
the Dayspring of His Revelation and the Fountain of His laws, Who representeth
the
Godhead in both the Kingdom of His Cause and the world of creation.
Whoso achieveth this duty hath attained unto all good;
and whoso is deprived thereof hath gone astray, though he be the author
of every righteous deed. It behoveth every one who reacheth
this most sublime station, this summit of transcendent glory,
to observe every ordinance of Him Who is the Desire of the world.
These twin duties are inseparable. Neither is acceptable without the other.
Thus hath it been decreed by Him Who is the Source of Divine inspiration."
