One Country
Newsletter of the bahai international community
866 United Nations Plaza, Suite 120
NY, NY 10017 1country@bic.org

Please remove me from your mailing list. While I was an accredited
participant at the Millennium Forum (May 22-26, 2000), I never gave
permission to the bahai international community to use my private
information for the delivery of its deceptive and hypocritical propaganda.

RECID#: 26201
Mr. FG
INDEPENDENT PARTICIPANT
[address withheld to protect me from further recriminations]


EXCERPTS:

The human spirit must be free to know. Apprehending who we are, for what
purpose we exist, and how we should live our lives, is a basic impluse of
human consciousness. This quest for self-understanding and meaning is the
esssence of life itself. The innate and fundamental aspiration to
investigate reality is thus a right and an obligation of every human being.

To search for truth--to see with one's "own eyes and not through the eyes of
other"--is to undertake a procvess of spiritual discovery with a keen sense
of justice and openness....

The right to freedom of thought, conscience and belief now codified in
international human rights instruments directly finds its roots in the
scriptures of the world's religions. This fact should assure each of us that
truth need not be feared, as it has many facets and shelters all of our
diverse expressions of faith. If, after all, people of religious faith
believe that the Creator is eternal and the center of all existence, then
they must also believe that the unfettered and genuine search for truth will
lead to truth.... Etc., etc., etc....

NON-BAHAI OBSERVERS:

Please compare these dishonest claims with the 50+ megabyte record of bahai
coercion and suppression of conscience available on my website below.

The bahai international community is abusing its access to the
Millennium Forum's list of participants by improperly using
people's addresses. See link below for the list of participants:
https://www.millenniumforum.org/html/MFParticipants.pdf

"This information is intended strictly as a reference and
should not be used in any other fashion without the
written permission of the Millennium Forum."

There are 335 pages of names and addresses, mine being
only one among the many thousands to whom the bahai
international community has been sending its deceptive
propaganda piece now for over two years.

Notice that the contact email for the Millennium Forum
has a "bic" domain, bahai international community,
mngof@bic.org and can hardly be trusted to handle
properly any complaint since THEY ARE the problem,
which leaves little choice but to appeal elsewhere:

On the first page of the list of participants it is
clearly stated that

"This information is intended strictly as a reference
and should not be used in any other fashion without the
written permission of the Millennium Forum."
https://www.millenniumforum.org/html/MFParticipants.pdf

As an accredited participant, I ask does the bic have
such explicit WRITTEN PERMISSION from the Millennium Form?

You dodged, not answered, my question. On the first page
of the list of Millennium Forum participants it is clearly stated that

"This information is intended strictly as a reference
and should not be used in any other fashion without the
written permission of the Millennium Forum."
https://www.millenniumforum.org/html/MFParticipants.pdf

As an accredited participant, I ask does the bic have
WRITTEN PERMISSION from the Millennium Form?
(That's a yes or no question.)

My name and address NEVER appeared anywhere else
other than the Millennium Forum list and I immediately
began receiving unsolicited copies of One Country
following the Forum in May of 2000. Your explanation
is false.

Dear Mr. Glaysher,

We get our lists from a variety of sources.  Your name may have been from
any
one of a number of conference lists, directories, or submissions from other
organizations with whom we associate. Our list generally consists of
prominent
people and organizations active in matters of global concern. Perhaps your
name
made it to one of these lists and was entered to our complimentary mailing
list.

The publication is sent at no charge to the recipients and many of our
readers
are interested in the articles about NGO conferences, development activities
and
in the book reviews and other items that relate to their field, as well as
in
learning more about the philosophy and activities of members of the Baha'i
Faith.  If they are not interested, they ask to be removed from the list, as
you
did, and their record is deleted from our files.

I'm sorry this seems to have caused you such distress.  As I said, your name
has
been removed from our mailing list.

Sincerely,

Veronica Shoffstall, Editorial Assistant

Please note how convenient it is that "Posting to this group has been temporarily disabled" at this time. I believe it constitutes an obvious attempt by bahai fundamentalists to suppress knowledge of their abusing their access to the Millennium Forum's mailing list and thereby from reaching  others associated with the Forum:
