The Baha'i Studies Listserv Hmmm. I got to the page through a Google search. Not sure why it's not working. It comes from an old Delphi forum called planet bahai. The poster claims that Greer has the full support of the House. Reading on in the thread, it seems that the letter from the House supporting Greer may or may not actually exist, you have to ask him for it, but in any event he says he has the support of the House, and he certainly wouldn't lie about that, and if the House has not written such a letter we would certainly like to see one from them supporting his work, there's a compilation from the House on extraterrestrials that's a "real eye opener" (which I can't find any evidence for), and on and on it goes. It all leaves me a bit speechless.

This page, of course is somewhat bizarre but not so far from average. The problem of social network is that some bahá'ís don't understand they have to separate with a bold line what is from the Faith and what is not, as Jeanine mentioned in her last email.

Asunto: Re: Steven Greer The Baha'i Studies Listserv The "full backing" phrase should be "full support" (was working from memory), and came from thus thread: http://forums.delphiforums.com/n/main.asp?webtag=planetbahai&ctx=&cacheTag=24-4&msg=9829.3&gid=2028608331 And here's a link to a Facebook page called "Baha'i Spirituality", which I find to be rather bizarre in it's own right. http://m.facebook.com/bahaispirituality?id=192060820834972&refsrc=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fbahaispirituality&_rdr And just to clarify, I think the guy is a fraud. That some Baha'is on Facebook, who I know personally and consider to have good judgment, are on board with him and seem to give him credibility because he is a Baha'i, really bothers me.

I don't know what Mike read, but those commenting on his Baha'i connection have generally suggested this is a reason to discredit his claim. But I agree, it makes the Faith look bad. __________________________________________________ You are subscribed to Baha'i Studies as: mailto:mike.m...@gmail.com Unsubscribe: send a blank email to mailto:leave-707360-1129213.c7a4f86ddd44f9911d3b661f6441b...@list.jccc.edu Subscribe: send subscribe bahai-st in the message body to ly...@list.jccc.edu Or subscribe: http://list.jccc.edu:8080/read/all_forums/subscribe?name=bahai-st Baha'i Studies is available through the following: Mail - mailto:bahai-st@list.jccc.edu Web - http://list.jccc.edu:8080/read/?forum=bahai-st News (on-campus only) - news://list.jccc.edu/bahai-st Old Public - http://www.mail-archive.com/bahai-st@list.jccc.net New Public - http://www.mail-archive.com/bahai-st@list.jccc.edu __________________________________________________ You are subscribed to Baha'i Studies as: mailto:arch...@mail-archive.com Unsubscribe: send a blank email to mailto:leave-707372-27401.54f46e81b66496c9909bcdc2f7987...@list.jccc.edu Subscribe: send subscribe bahai-st in the message body to ly...@list.jccc.edu Or subscribe: http://list.jccc.edu:8080/read/all_forums/subscribe?name=bahai-st Baha'i Studies is available through the following: Mail - mailto:bahai-st@list.jccc.edu Web - http://list.jccc.edu:8080/read/?forum=bahai-st News (on-campus only) - news://list.jccc.edu/bahai-st Old Public - http://www.mail-archive.com/bahai-st@list.jccc.net New Public - http://www.mail-archive.com/bahai-st@list.jccc.edu
