The Baha'i Studies Listserv To copy and paste from a prior email. The Baha'i Studies Listserv 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, which means I left without dis enrolling, so I still keep getting Baha'i emails and mail. I did discover Unitarian Universalism, Humanism, and Buddhism over the time afterwards. I also do study Adi Dam, Ahmadiyya, Foundation International, I Kuan Tao aka Yi Guan Dao, Mission of Maitreya - Eternal Divine Path, Neo Gnosticism, Raëlism, and Scientology as well regularly.
