Unfortunately, the Baha\u2019is have been accustomed to this idea that everything said by the universal house of justice has been the revelation and opposing the universal house of justice is opposing God.<\/h3>\n<p style=\"direction: ltr;\"><strong>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Confronting the universal house of justice and the continental consultants and the local and national assemblies against the Baha\u2019i critics and the open-minded is offensive, immoral and this is a complaint made by most educated people in Bahaism. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"direction: ltr;\"><strong>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The universal house of justice which shout the slogan of the oneness of human being in the world not only confront non-Baha\u2019is severely but also quarrel with the Baha\u2019i educated and open-minded ones. Everybody imagines that the Baha\u2019i creed is the enemy of freedom of thought and speech. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"direction: ltr;\"><strong>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 As a person who has been in Bahaism for years and is familiar with Bahaullah and Abdul Baha&#8217;s ideas completely has criticized this behavior of the universal house of justice in various cases. For instance! he writes in this regard: <\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"direction: ltr;\"><strong>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 To real test of morality of each religion does not depend on the behavior towards those who keep their mouths closed ( That is, those who don\u2019t think and don&#8217;t question), but it depends on their behaviors with authors and the educated<\/strong> <strong>of that religion. This issue is deeply related to the history of their open-minded people and the rituals been applied in their culture. The Baha\u2019i creed has completely failed in this test.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"direction: ltr;\"><strong>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0Glyther writes in another article: <\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"direction: ltr;\"><strong>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 &#8220;The organizational Baha\u2019is have gotten used to \u201cpower&#8221; and &#8220;position&#8221;. The <a href=\"https:\/\/dictionary.cambridge.org\/dictionary\/english\/religious\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">religious<\/a> positions, the spiritual positions and gnostic positions. That is right. That is wrong. This is Bahaullah method. That is not Bahaullah&#8217;s method. This attention and dependence on the superior\u2019s power and position resemble a poison in the hearts of the members of the Baha\u2019i community. According to me, this is the mere.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"direction: ltr;\"><strong>reason for the lack of influence of Bahaullah\u2019s thought on the essence of reality seekers during the contemporary periods of time. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"direction: ltr;\"><strong>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Bahaullah has been put into a tight frame and his teachings have been changed into tablets written on stone. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"direction: ltr;\"><strong>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Unfortunately, it seems some of the complications existing among Haifa Baha\u2019is including needing the central power or boycotting, cursing or excommunicating others are also existent among the ex-Baha\u2019is, too. Although this relaxed behavior seems navigable, but it is practically a kind of aggressive one. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"direction: ltr;\"><strong>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The prophets speak powerfully and firmly in order for anybody else not to be similar to prophet. For instance, the universal house of justice can&#8217;t and must not to exert such tone to be accompanied by holiness and power. God possesses the definite power, but human beings aren&#8217;t so. The universal house of justice (residing in Haifa) has preached this viewpoint that the answer for each question is in their hands. They are seeking for power, control, and dominance.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"direction: ltr;\"><strong>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The universal house of justice says to<\/strong> s<strong>end it each question you have to be answered!

I think the Baha\u2019i reform must avoid interpreting each issue, too. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"direction: ltr;\"><strong>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 I advocate incoherent organization, the freedom of belief and thought.
