Dear Susan,
How about Hidden Words saying "Treasure the companionship of the
righteous and eschew all fellowship with the ungodly". I don't think
ungodly really means atheist here. Thinking about the Persian word
(ashrAr) means more to me as "enemies". I think your quote below is
out of context. I think we should look at all the quotes of
Baha'u'llah, Abdu'l-Baha, and Guardian in this regard. Can you
consort with Jihadist or Shia ruling clerics of Iran with spirit of
joy and spirituality?
It doesn't say *all* followers of all religions.

Even if you think we believe in stupid things, your religion
says you have to respect people of all religions. It doesn't say, "respect
people of all religions, only if they agree with Baha'i teachings."
The Writings go further than that. They say we should consort with the
followers of all religions with joy and spirituality. I don't see much
of that evident here of late.

Understood properly, all man's problems are essentially spiritual in nature.
