I hope that people becoming aware of this open letter will become curious about the circumstances surrounding the birth of the Faith. "According to historical documents and evidence, from the commencement of the Babi Movement followed by the appearance of the Baha’i Faith, thousands of our countrymen have been slain by the sword of bigotry and superstition only for their religious beliefs. Just in the first decades of its establishment, some twenty thousand of those who stood identified with this faith community were savagely killed throughout various regions of Iran. We are ashamed that during that period, no voice of protest against these barbaric murders was registered;" http://www.iranpresswatch.org/2009/02/we-are-ashamed/ While I cannot be ashamed as an Iranian for silence in the face of injustice, I CAN be ashamed of every time I did not share the healing Message of Baha'u'llah from every receptive heart I may have chanced to meet. I'm doing something about that now. Thank you for this timely post.
