As a matter of fact, the people of the west didn\u2019t know about Baha\u2019ism hypocrisy and crimes and this issue caused them to believe his humanitarian slogans easily.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">However, the prevalence of Baha\u2019ism in Christian communities of the west cause the cultural and religious combination for this cult. Of course, the slogan of the oneness of religions and tribes in which Baha\u2019ism didn\u2019t believe<a href=\"#_ftn1\" name=\"_ftnref1\">[1]<\/a> created a new challenge for the Baha\u2019i cult. For example, the Christians who had become the Baha\u2019is were celebrating the Christmas celebrations which had caused the Baha\u2019i leaders angry.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">This issue caused the Baha\u2019ism leader, Abdul Baha opposed the Christmas angrily and called the celebrations as illusions and the holders of them as foolish: \u201cAs a matter of fact, those who rejoiced in the celebrations and enjoyed the Christmas tree which was decorated according to ancient traditions and habits are the people of illusions and superstitions. I swear by the Lord that if they were living in Jesus Christ period of time, the Excellency Jesus would turn against them.

The Baha\u2019ism leaders claimed for passing from the religious, sexual, national and political differences which are destructive and must gain unity.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Abdul Baha has said in this regard: \u201cThanks God, we are all the slaves of the only one God and are sinking in the mercy sea of Him. So, the Muslim or Christian bigotry is meaningless. We must entreat for the divine heavens to act based on <a href=\"https:\/\/bahaismiran.com\/?p=4127&amp;lang=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bahaullah<\/a>\u2019s teachings.
