>>>This is particularly sad in that of the many ways to search for meaning, Baha'i has always represented one of the sanest, with tolerance and co-existence with others built into its fabric. While Christians and Muslims particularly have never been slow to persecute non-believers or apostates, the believers of Baha'i seem to represent a sincerity without aggression that really has to be admired.

>>>Of course, one can see how their existence is a threat to the mullahs, who cannot be accused of sanity and who never shrink from aggression. I wish the Friends well and hope that they are not forgotten and at least their current problems may help publicize the plight of the large Baha'i community in Iran.

>>By the way, I mentioned this as a recent event, but it is only "the tip of the iceberg"; Bahá'ís are barred from universities, from many jobs, and their cementeries have been desecrated, to name but a few of the problems that occured during the last few years.

>And persecution continues in Egypt and other countries.
