Are you seriously honest? You respect Christianity but think their book has
errors in it? Is that really respectful? What that means is that you believe
in "another Christianity" that doesn't even exist (nobody follows the
Christianity that you have in mind), one that had a book revealed to Jesus
similar to how a book was revealed to Muhammad?
Now you should think about what Bahais mean by "respecting Christianity".
And you should think about what Bahais means by "revelation" and it's
time-dependent qualities. Even "how" revelation place is dependent on the
capacity of mankind.
For example, Moses and Jesus didn't directly dictate their teachings to scribes
but they were written down times afterward, and Muhammad didn't actually write
anything down himself, but people wrote them down after memorizing them.
But in this day, Bab and Bahaullah actually wrote their revelations themselves
or directly dictated them to secretaries and then stamped them after review.
The nature of "revelation" itself is time-dependent, let alone the contents of
"revelation"
