Stephen: Logical people will side with logic; religious people will side with
the religion of their choice. Emotional people often fly their passions in the
guise of religion or logic or both. Sometimes religions and logic and emotion
work together to express truth passionately. Baha'is try to be logical, but
always in the service of what we worship. Individual sensitivities do indeed
get trampled smetimes in our pursuit of what we believe to be the Divine Plan,
inadvertantly by some or even uncaringly by a few. We must have hurt you
terribly to arouse such passions as drive your religious logic.

If logic and religion conflict, people should side with logic and rationality.

Hmmm...Logic is also not on our list of world religions. Have you ever been
diagnosed with OCD?

It's a treatable disorder.

Like just assuming since Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, Judaism,
Bahai Faith, Zoroastrianism, and Bayaniism are the only world religions
mentioned in the Baha'i Writings, they're the only world religions that exist.

I generously bless people. It's what I do. Also, I'm trained in logic and can
notify people when they're using fallacies. Also, I'm an ex non dis enrolled
Baha'i who left because of the logical inconsistencies.

You seem to study everything and commit to nothing. This can be a path
to insanity. I hope that is not your fate.
