Dear Stephen, They launched a big newspaper campaign in the '90's but as far as I've been able to determine they only attracted disaffected Baha'is. The problem is the Remeyites don't have a positive message. They are so focused on what is supposedly wrong with us that they aren't able to present anything of interest to the rest of the world. This was not the case with the Jensenites. For the very reason that their beliefs were so different from regular Baha'is, they had a unique message, weird as it was, to present to everyone else. warmest, Susan __________________________________________________ You are subscribed to Baha'i Studies as: mailto:arch...@mail-archive.com Unsubscribe: send a blank email to mailto:leave-483479-274...@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...@list.jccc.net New Public - http://www.mail-archive.com/bahai-st@list.jccc.edu
