** The Charade of Dialogue and Consultation **
I refuse to participate in the CHARADE of dialogue.... THAT
is what has infuriated fanatics like Susan Maneck and others....
And I have found ways to reach non-bahai observers with the truth
about my fellow bahais, in the best interest of both the Baha'i
Faith and of my fellow citizens. More on Susan Maneck, Baha'i

The fundamentalists among my fellow bahais no longer uphold
the principles and Teachings of Baha'u'llah. Their only standard
is their desire for power and control, while the crushing of the
individual is merely a corollary of that goal.
Baha'i principles include opposing, identifying, and denouncing
the tyrant, as Baha'u'llah did, with integrity, for decades....
I have long been a defender of Abdul-Baha's clear, undeniable,
and perspicuous Words, while the fundamentalists seek to cast me
as an opponent and heretic, which is slander, pure and simple.
Susan Maneck and the other fundamentalists may ignore others and
spam their spin control year after year with impunity. That's the
way it works in bahai cyberspace, while maligning anyone with
even a modicum of integrity and courage. Usually, newcomers are
too innocent to know the difference, is their hope. In the end, the
truth will out, which is the fundamentalist fear.
Polluting the atmosphere with moles, who are wildly erratic
and aberrant, is one of the tactics that the fundamentalists
use (on talk.religion.bahai and elsewhere) to discredit
dissenters and liberals before non-bahais and newcomers.
Slander and backbiting are powerful forces, employed nowhere to
better effect than by the fundamentalists among my fellow bahais.
Many observers, though, have not been deceived:
