Well, it would be nice to have a good clean, clear statement by the Porte that Jews could return to Israel, it is not absolutely necessary to have it. That the Porte stopped killing apostates out of hand is certainly a major break in their policies and by extension it means not only that those of a Christian tradition could go back to Christianity it also means that those of Judaic traditions could go back to being Jews without fear of execution for it. Its "toleration" enough in my book. I would suppose opponents of the faith might be gleeful about it, but we'll survive their temporary glee.   Regards,   Scott __________________________________________________ You are subscribed to Baha'i Studies as: mailto:archive@mail-archive.com To unsubscribe, send a blank email to mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] To subscribe, use subscribe bahai-st in the message body to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Baha'i Studies is available through the following: Mail - mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Web - http://list.jccc.edu/read/?forum=bahai-st News - news://list.jccc.edu/bahai-st Public - http://www.escribe.com/religion/bahaist Old Public - http://www.mail-archive.com/bahai-st@list.jccc.net New Public - http://www.mail-archive.com/bahai-st@list.jccc.edu
