This A.C. Ross character is something else, HE is not Baha’i as far as I know:
1746. Astronomy is a Science, Astrology is Not
“Astronomy is a science, astrology does not come under the same category, but we should be patient with people who believe in it, and gradually wean them away from reliance on such things.” (From a letter written on behalf of Shoghi Effendi, dated December 24, 1941, to an individual believer: Ibid.)
1748. Horoscopes
“We should attach no importance to astrology or horoscopes. No exact science is involved, though sometimes some truth seems involved, but the percentage is small.” (From a letter written on behalf of Shoghi Effendi, dated January 15, 1951, to an individual believer: Ibid.)

The Influence of the Stars and the Interconnectedness of All Things
QUESTION: DO THE stars of the heavens have a spiritual influence upon human souls or not?Answer: Certain celestial bodies exert a physical influence upon the earth and its creatures which is clear and apparent and which requires no explanation. Consider the sun, which, through the help of divine grace, nurtures the earth and all its creatures. Indeed, were it not for the light and heat of the sun, all earthly things would entirely cease to exist.
As to spiritual influences, although it might seem strange that these stars should exert a spiritual influence upon the human world, yet were you to reflect deeply upon this matter you would not be greatly surprised by it. My meaning, however, is not that the deductions that the astrologers of old made from the motions of the stars and planets were true, for these were mere figments of the imagination which had their origin with the Egyptian, Assyrian, and Chaldean priests, or rather stemmed from the idle conjectures of the Hindus and the superstitions of the Greeks, the Romans, and the other star worshippers. My meaning, instead, is that this endless universe is like the human body, and that all its parts are connected one with another and are linked together in the utmost perfection. That is, in the same way that the parts, members, and organs of the human body are interconnected, and that they mutually assist, reinforce, and influence each other, so too are the parts and members of this endless universe connected with, and spiritually and materially influenced by, one another. For example, the eye sees and the entire body is affected; the ear hears and every limb and member is stirred. Of this there is no doubt, for the world of existence is also like a living person. Thus, the interconnection that exists between the various parts of the universe requires mutual influences and effects, whether material or spiritual.
For those who deny the spiritual influence of material things, we mention this brief example: Beautiful sounds, wondrous tones, and harmonious melodies are accidents which affect the air; for sound consists in vibrations of the air, and through these vibrations the nerves of the tympanum are excited and hearing results. Now consider how the vibrations of the air, which are an accident among accidents and which are accounted as naught, attract and exhilarate the spirit of man and move him to the utmost: They cause him to laugh and to weep, and can even induce him to throw himself in harm’s way. Observe, then, what a connection exists between the spirit of man and the vibrations of the air, that the latter can transport him to another state and so overwhelm him as to entirely deprive him of patience and composure. Consider how strange this is, for nothing comes forth from the singer and enters into the listener, and yet great spiritual effects are produced. This intimate relationship between all created things is therefore bound to give rise to spiritual influences and effects.
It was already mentioned that the parts and members of the human body mutually influence one another. For instance, the eye sees and the heart is affected. The ear hears and the spirit is influenced. The heart finds peace, the thoughts expand, and all the members of the body experience a state of well-being. What a connection and relationship this is! And if such relationships, such spiritual influences and effects, are found among the various members of the body of man, which is only one particular being among many, then there must assuredly exist both spiritual and material relationships among the countless universal beings. And although our present methods and sciences cannot detect these relationships among the universal beings, their existence is nonetheless clear and indisputable.
In sum, all beings, whether universal or particular, are mutually connected in accordance with God’s consummate wisdom and mutually influence one another. Were it not so, the all-embracing organization and universal arrangement of existence would become disordered and disrupted. And as all created things are most soundly connected one with another, they are well ordered, arranged, and perfected.
This matter deserves close examination and calls for careful attention and deep reflection.

No proper tribute to Pete Mesteth would be complete without the legend of those who go the Heyoka route for the greater good
and poke fun at all cultures from the perspective of other cultures worldwide:
Pete Mesteth Talks Coming to the NW and His Lesson Learned
IN previous core blog entries I am highly critical of Pete Mesteth for allegedly scamming my Dad and my Dad’s alleged stint of romantic proclivity towards Pete’s way too young sister Stefanie (who is about a year older than I ), alleging the highly suspect possibility that Pete was pimping her out off to my Dad around the late 1980’s, as late as 1988 (when she was 17 going on 18) or perhaps she was willfully pulling tricks on her own initiative to my Dad?
I cannot verify my Dad was this far gone pursuing sexual relations with Stephanie Mesteth while she was underage, or ever, as a fact. There was a habit of nagging relentless complaining that all might have been 1 of many of my mother’s own vindictive exaggerated complaints which was way too excessively abusive for any child of such a parent ever have to endure.
What is true was at some point in the 1980’s starting around 1982 my Dad turned into a wannabe inverted Tonto speaking White man, and had lost his identity and a lot of good Baha’i principles in favor of chasing the drumming and American Indian spirituality. It was though my Dad had been brainwashed into a cult.
In favor of Pete’s commitment to Pete’s American Indian spirituality, PowWow trips and drumming circles which in turn lasted well up until 1996 with Pete Mesteth securing routine Sweat Lodge at the Haines’s residence in Rural Clackamas County near a little town of Mulino.
The gullibility and doormat following of Pete got so bad that a substantial amount of quality authentic parental support was lacking in my most formative years of my youth, as Pete’s family was given priority over me as my Dad was played and scammed like a fiddle one way or another. So the culmination of frustrated feelings was 1 of the reasons I was so furious in 1996 seeing that sweat lodge out in the Haines as Pete’s legacy scamming my Dad. I’m not proud nor am I ashamed of kicking the antlers off the damn sweat lodge alter in 1996. I’m not proud nor ashamed of snapping the eagle bone flute of my Dad’s in half around 1987.
I feel like my Dad following Pete had a twisted demented weird penitence for a respect for my mother’s distant American Indian heritage, her history of child abuse, that he couldn’t appease by any other means except simping in total white guilt. That is sad, it’s what I couldn’t help observe and it’s part of my experience to see such deception from a front row seat that needs to be shared.
I don’t need to belabor the issue. I describe in detail in previous posts that aren’t even worth linking anymore that’s filled with too much anger. It’s rather unfortunate and tragic and if there’s any point now in bringing this up, it’s that I don’t wish that kind of child abandonment on anyone.
How Bahá’u’lláh Fulfilled Native American & Indigenous Prophecies
IT’S FAR MORE IMPORTANT NOW THAT I SAY SOMETHING POSITIVE about PETE MESTETH, the Baha’i interactions with American Indians in the Pacific Northwest and the American Indian culture I was exposed to via both my parents.
Here his an old video of Pete, already looking like a double leg amputee from extreme Diabetes complications by 2002 when he’s not even hardly 49 years old and his obituary is June of 2006
Duly noted, the matron of fat gelding ranch, where the sweat lodge was hosted, had a biological dad, who was also a double leg amputee during his waning years (from diabetes or injury? ) I’m not sure at all. I feel like the fact that Pete submitted to having his sweat lodge based at such at fat gelding ranch, the abode
Washishi redneck daughter of an alcoholic, and whatever weird covens or pacts she had with the likes of Ann Fillmore and god only other bizarre unknown witchcraft. Re Why So Many Girls Are Obsessed With Horses MGTOW.mp4
Somehow I can’t help but think of Pete’s Jar head (USMC) basic training being reflected back at my Dad.
I know of Brave Buffalo and Martin HighBear who both had interactions with Baha’is during the 1980’s, particularly Arlene Dryer whose name is now commonly known as Rose Highbear.
Quoting that video
“2:27
she told me she said
2:31
i can tell these people a lot of things
2:39
you know i’ll translate it for you
2:43
and she said no she said these people
2:46
are gonna
2:47
are gonna realize it somedayAnd the irony of that is some whites interacted with Oglala Lakota Sioux a long, long, time ago. No one taught me anything about Black Elk and his historic interactions with John G. Neihardt
John G. Neihardt https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Neihardt
2:26 + “Those people are gonna realize it someday”
!
“3:30+ that podium and that in that way of explaining all of that kind of stuff you know for me you know in retrospect looking at what my grandmother had to say about our way of life she didn’t want anybody (you know) she didn’t want to tell these people anything because 4:01 she never (you know) never talked english anyway and she didn’t she didn’t care for them( you know)
And so you know what i got out of that was you know you don’t need to stand up there in front of everybody and tell them about your way of life you have it for your people you save it for your people. Don’t be telling these people this stuff. 4:24 that’s kind of like what i got out of it “
I don’t know exactly what Pete meant by that account of his grandmother, but I’m under the impression Pete then and here, in depreciating pitiful double leg amputee from diabetes, done with the pow wow gamut and a lot of extreme energy trying to educate whites and non-natives by public speeches, saw a certain amount of burnout futility in it all. It’s striking how he defers to his Grandmother and a certain respect for feminine divinity or primal matriarch programming.
In that same light, it is for this reason when I found this video of this flippant arrogant bratty toned little smirking ginger young woman in the White Nationalist bullshit forums on gab : https://www.tiktok.com/@mr_nine95/video/6978488703241030918 she was correct, but at the same time, who doesn’t wonder what could she possibly know of being tested in each and every one of those areas? And that’s when I knew
I don’t see any difference between how that bratty Ginger lady, who spoke some based truth, as much different from Pete Mesteth’s vision of his Grandmother advising him not to be stupid about expecting white Libtards to understand speeches in a Podium like-lecture as any less stupid than the reality of how “podium” style lectures trying to teach about sacred based authentic spiritually can be as fucked up as this Pfizer convention with an audience full of zombies
who are determined to learn things the hardway, and never hardly give a dman about the principles here:
With Dolores Riordon’ screaming zombie, zombie, zombie at all the damn zombies determine to learn things the hard way https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OnMu0WBcbCE
I realized the bratty little flaming haired / ginger / pure white woman was a psyop going viral on White separatists groups on gab.com appealing to those common white ancestry and so that’s why I made this and many other extreme images collages of Amatu’l-Baha’ Ruhiyyih Khanum explaining the Baha’i concepts of Youth tempering their wayward ways
And teach Unity in Diversity for her own fellow whites as I’m mostly white myself. (it’s a kind of inverse stubborn sense for one’s own people that Pete Mesteth was talking about), for them to have snowball’s chance hell to crawl out and finally learn to stop their wicked racist ways and endemic stockholm syndrome.
Ruhiyyih Khanum interacted with diverse people but didn’t compromise her white identity at all. Bright red hair like that is an eccentricity no doubt, but an immutable identity appearance carrying a lot of bright undivided attention no doubt.
The Baha’i principle of “unity in Diversity” needed to be clarified and emphatically emphasized and needed to be shared validating authentic self respecting whites and white separatists’ grievances, while showing Baha’is denounce the Triple false gods of racial supremacism or the opposite extreme of forced diversity!
TRANSCRIPT OF CLOSING SPEECH
Pete was determined to do the pow wow drumming and ceremony circuit and revise his own heritage self esteem and pride, as well as participate in the Sun Dance regularly. He was passionate about that. He wanted his own people to evolve and be loved. Near the later years he was really beginning to see the Baha’i Faith beyond my Dad’s bizarre guilt piss generosity and white guilt complex.
Pete was a Marine Corps Veteran whose tour of duty was the last part of the Vietnam War when he evacuated the damn place. Pete knew Oglala Lakota language fluently and had a passionate way of singing.
The person “Brave Buffalo” was some kind of Plains Tribe Indian, I think Lakota who was married to a German Lady. The first Sweat Lodge Ceremony I went to was in Siletz while I was barely 12 years old and I was impressed by the way Brave Buffalo delivered the ceremony. My brother who was barely 9 went crying out when it got too hot, I stayed all 4 rounds. I remember there was some sense for camaraderie and encouragement at some of those sweat lodge ceremonies. Pete dissuaded me from being a faggot by these words: “Life does not revolve around penises in anuses” one time when he described his encounters with gays rights activists, which is flawless front of authentic American spirituality, beyond the pervert libtards who want to continue genocide:
10:54 Facts about the term “two-spirit” & Ojibwe gender culture
‘Two Spirit’ Tradition Far From Ubiquitous Among Tribes
Oct 13, 2016, 9:55am
Mary Annette Pember copied:As a journalist and Ojibwe woman, I am troubled by the claims that Native peoples historically described LGBTQ folks as two-spirited and celebrated them as healers and shamans, because the claims are mostly unfounded or only partially true.
My concern is not so much over the use of the words but over the social meme they have generated that has morphed into a cocktail of historical revisionism, wishful thinking, good intentions, and a soupcon of white, entitled appropriation.
Oliver Bunica/AFP/Getty ImagesA fellow journalist once described me as a “Native-American scold” in his editorial supporting the use of Native-American sports mascots. He disagreed with my objections to their use. As a result, I pictured myself standing with one hand on my hip and the other holding my mother’s fry-bread skillet as I took folks to task over questionable usage of Native-American images, culture, or spirituality.
At the risk of forever branding myself as that skillet-wielding scold, I am now voicing my concern over the use of the term “two spirit” to describe LGBTQ people.
My concern is not so much over the use of the words but over the social meme they have generated that has morphed into a cocktail of historical revisionism, wishful thinking, good intentions, and a soupçon of white, entitled appropriation.
One image in particular that comes to mind is a 2013 Google Plus post of a Native American elder with the following quote:
Christian leaders, stand on our soil and claim: “gay marriage” has never occurred here. Over 130 tribes in every region of North America performed millions of same-sex marriages for hundreds of years. Their statements are both hateful and ignorant. Your “homosexual,” was our Two Spirit people… and we consider them sacred.
Unfortunately, as often happens, the complex work and research of anthropologists has been used to paint an overly wide brush of Native culture, conveniently overlooking distinct cultural and language differences that Native peoples hold crucial to their identity.
As a journalist and Ojibwe woman, I am troubled by the claims that Native peoples historically described LGBTQ folks as two-spirited and celebrated them as healers and shamans, because the claims are mostly unfounded or only partially true. These sort of simplified black-and-white depictions of Native culture and history perpetuate indiscriminate appropriation of Native peoples. Although the current new meme or legend surrounding the term two spirit is certainly laudable for helping LGBTQ people create their own more empowering terminology to describe themselves, it carries some questionable baggage.
Wikipedia has a refreshingly nuanced definition for the term. Two spirit, it explains, “is a modern umbrella term used by some indigenous North Americans to describe gay, lesbian, bisexual and gender-variant individuals in their communities. The term was adopted in 1990 at an Indigenous lesbian and gay gathering to encourage the replacement of the anthropological term berdache [a non-Native word associated with prostitutes] … While some have found the term a useful tool for intertribal organizing, not all Native cultures conceptualize gender or sexuality this way, and most tribes use names in their own languages. While pan-Indian terms are not always appropriate or welcome, the term has generally received more acceptance and use than the term it replaced.”
Non-Native anthropologist Will Roscoe gets much of the public credit for coining the term two spirit. However, according to Kristopher Kohl Miner of the Ho-Chunk Nation, Native people such as anthropologist Dr. Wesley Thomas of the Dine or Navajo tribe also contributed to its creation. (Thomas is a professor in the School of Dine and Law Studies.)
Despite New Age and popular ideals to the contrary, there is no universal Native-American culture or spirituality. There are over 500 federally recognized Native tribes in the United States speaking several hundred languages. I would never primarily describe myself as “Native American.” I am Ojibwe of the Red Cliff Band of Wisconsin.
Most of us feel quite strongly about the distinct nature of our tribal cultures and languages, most of which are oral and handed down through generations.
Unfortunately, depending on an oral tradition to impart our ways to future generations opened the floodgates for early non-Native explorers, missionaries, and anthropologists to write books describing Native peoples and therefore bolstering their own role as experts. These writings were and still are entrenched in the perspective of the authors who were and are mostly white men.
Miner, who is currently working on a film about LGBTQ elders and spirituality, said to me during a recent phone call, “Two spirit is a totally contemporary term. It was brought to the table because anthropologists referred to us as berdache. Native LGBTQ people wanted a term that could give us the opportunity to take back our identities.”
Although Miner was raised in a Wisconsin family that spoke the Ho-Chunk language, he has been unable to find any reference to LGBTQ people from elders or scholars.
“So much has been lost. [LGBTQ] people had to go underground for so long. I don’t even know who to talk to back home; they are all in the closet.”
Anton Treuer of the Leech Lake Ojibwe tribe and professor of Ojibwe linguistics at Bemidji State University explained to me that “most of the written archival information that we have about our people begins with European contact.”
For instance, the writings of Jesuit priests from the 1600s contain references to “berdaches” and often focus negatively on cross dressing among the Ojibwe.
If we are to truly gain an understanding of the role that gender-variant people held in pre-contact tribal life, however, we must look to the language, according to Treuer.
In Treuer’s stunning book The Assassination of Hole in the Day about the great 19th-century Ojibwe chief, he notes, “Sex usually determined one’s gender, and therefore one’s work, but the Ojibwe accepted variation. Men who chose to function as women were called ikwekanaazo, meaning ‘one who endeavors to be like a woman. Women who functioned as men were called ininiikaazo, meaning, one who endeavors to be like a man.”
He further notes, “the role of ikwekanaazo and ininiikaazo in Ojibwe society was considered to be sacred, often because they assumed their roles based on spiritual dreams or visions.”
In addition to written scholarly documents, Treuer regularly works with elders and speakers of the language on his work. Far more than mere consultation, working with elders and other community members ensures that the essence of the language, the primary conveyor of spirituality and culture, remains strong and true.
As elders age and die, much of the past dies with them. Therefore, much of what we know about the roles of the ikwekanaazo and the ininiikaazo has been given to us by the conquerors.
The legacy of Western domination robbed many, including Native Americans, of any religion or culture that fell outside of narrow Western norms.
As many of us have suffered under the unfair shame and blame of this legacy, it is tempting to privilege a more idyllic view of society, such as the imagined world of pre-European contact Native America. Indeed, mainstream media depicts Native Americans with little gradation; they are either romanticized as noble environmentalists driven only by selfless idealism or as the gold standards for poverty, social disease, and despair.
I have often been cornered by well-meaning liberals who hold forth authoritatively about the esteem in which traditional Native-American culture holds LGBTQ folks.
I like to imagine the reception some of my Carhartt-wearing relatives out tending their livestock would offer this homily. I fear it would be a preamble to an ass whooping, much as it would be in other rural areas.
Years of colonization and appropriation by European invaders, as well as the well-intentioned religious hegemony that demonized our spirituality and way of life through boarding schools and other means, has made Indian Country much like the rest of rural America in terms of enlightened treatment of LGBTQ folks. In fact, some tribes have created laws specifically banning same-sex marriage. Gender-variant individuals have a hard way to go, in and out of Indian Country.
Miner agrees. Now living in Minneapolis, he described an especially painful incident when he returned to the Ho-Chunk Nation in Wisconsin a few years ago to attend a traditional cultural event.
“When I brought my husband to a feast, I was told that I was flaunting my sexuality and instructed not to sit with my clan,” he said. Clan identity and affiliation is central to the Ho-Chunk and other tribes and often defines spiritual and social activity.
“I asked my elders what was going on but they just shook their heads. I was so disappointed; I haven’t returned since,” he said.
Native Americans are disappointingly and inconveniently human, just like the rest of the population. Describing us in any other terms reflects a particularly resistant form of racism called entitlement.
“Human beings are pretty complicated,” Treuer notes. “Each tribe had their own way of describing gender variation.”
“There was probably a spectrum of how people lived their lives prior to European contact. The Ojibwe family at that time revolved around physical survival; sexual orientation was only one part of life,” he added.
Overall, however, Treuer opines that people trying to reconstruct an indigenous version of gender as that of greater acceptance, are at least partially correct: “Traditionally, it’s not our way to judge.”
The Ojibwe worldview is the great leveler. According to elders, all beings, human and otherwise, possess one spirit. All are equal and have their own destiny.
As one of our Ojibwe priests has said, “We are all spirits, having a temporary corporeal experience.”

I remember once years ago a journalist asking me what I thought about women’s lib. I think this was 1970? I said, “What’s that?” I’ve been traveling in jungles and things. I hadn’t seen any newspapers. I didn’t even know what women’s lib was. I said, “What’s that?” “Oh,” he said, “it’s this and that.” He explained the women’s liberation movement. I said, “I don’t approve of it. But if you want to start a men’s lib society in the United States, I would be glad to join it.” And he was delighted. It came out in two-inch headlines. But although women should have equal opportunity and equal rights and social justice with men, I don’t believe in any attitude on the part of either men or women that leads to disputation and assertion of rights at the expense of harmony and so on. And I think that this is often what happens in marriage. The woman or the man, conditioned by the psychology of the society in which we’re living nowadays, enters it with a me-first attitude. You know, people have called this the me-first period of this century. And this is really what’s one of the fundamental things that’s wrong with the whole century is that it’s me-first.

The synchromystic Irony of discovering Mysterious Miss Alm Mothers’ (78 years old) her facebook page, her intense bloodline Scotch heritage, the 2 eclipses in particularly when I was age 45 in 2017 going on 46 and age 52 now in most 2024) is particularly ironic.
In 2017 I first started praying that maybe it wasn’t too late to discover Miss ALM (and all the over the top mythological legendary weight and erotomania I felt for her might mean something). And so it’s ironic the band “Armed Love Militia” – Dream 45 and this song compliments that.
I may die never know what all this rabbit hole of weird patterns of incidents in my life might actually mean.

4/21/2024 There was some bad context issues that needed resolved
It’s doubtful this woman here “Nadema Agard Winyan Luta” is a Baha’i or if she is , it’s in name only. I came to this conclusion for no other reason than her standalone statement Lakota woman she said her mother had to “take a step down” by becoming a Baha’i
no compunction resisting the face diaper
to get a platform to speak, but that’s kind of understandable for elderly people with uncertain health issues or scheduling a lecture, especially around the time of the mandates. Nevertheless here’s my sentiments repeated that these were just a bunch of slave vetting compliancy masks all along.
Nadema Agard Winyan Luta ‘s bio is kind of bizarre with nothing saying she is Baha’i. I have no problem with her getting a platform on Wilmette institute, because she is a brilliant agitator (not sure to what degree there is discord between me and her beyond feeling compelled to respond to a petpeeve of prattling old boomer “feminist girls are better than boys nyah nyah nyah” power stuff and to absolve & vent away some of the heavy burden of once upon a time simping for that bullshit hook, line, and sinker like a fish to water. here’s what her bio says:
” Nadema Agard Winyan Luta |(Woman Holy Red} is a Cherokee/Lakota/Powhatan artist, illustrator, curator, educator, lecturer, storyteller, writer, poet, published author, museum professional and consultant in Repatriation and Multicultural/ Native American arts and cultures. She earned a B.S. Degree from N.Y.U. and M.A. in Art and Education from Teacher’s College, C.U. Her work spans more than four decades and includes multiple solo exhibitions, group exhibitions, and guest curatorship’s nationally and internationally. Describing her work, Nadema states: “My artwork has an individualistic style that draws upon cosmic subject matter. It has a global agenda from an Indigenous perspective and reflects the interconnection of myself as woman, mother, Indigenous world citizen, Native North American, spiritual being and warrior. My work has been influenced by the ceremonies of the Onondaga Longhouse, the Hopi Kiva on Second Mesa, the Full Moon and Sweat Lodge ceremonies of the Ojibwe, the Sundance of the Lakota, a pilgrimage to Medicine Wheel, Wyoming, Nanih Waiya Mound of the Choctaw, the Mayan Pyramid in Chichen Itza and Kilauea Volcano in Hawaii, home of goddess Pele.”

I don’t care to know hardly anyone in the Baha’i Faith who won’t have the courage to admit to these these principles of curbing homosexuality https://bahai-library.com/compilation_homosexuality_bwc/ , discouraging child molestation and encouraging heterocentric superstraight traditional nuclear families.
‘Two Spirit’ Tradition Far From Ubiquitous Among Tribes https://rewirenewsgroup.com/2016/10/13/two-spirit-tradition-far-ubiquitous-among-tribes/
AFTERMATH with a Wellbriety Facebook Group and the big simp admin / moderator who threw down a gauntlet and there’s nothing that isn’t obvious to him and me why (even if he’ll never admit it) just based on what I witnessed about him.
REPEATING CHALLENGING IMPORTANT QUESTIONS: The woke agenda intimidated chickenshit people don’t want to discuss much:
Do you bother to give much critical thought what that might mean in a Nomadic society of Indigineous people of North America? Of any society with definite distinctions between different gender roles and different capacities? where boys have bit more than a snowball’s hell to become men? and girls have a chance to become women? I’d love to make friends with Wellbriety regulars who bother to distinguish the great most Spiritual Societies of American Indian people, their authentic traditions, from a lot of incindiary divisive libtard modern feminist supremacist standalone talking points!. I disagree with that standalone statement. No one is automatically gifted to love just because they have a body where baby making happens neither baby making ingredient spreading organ [gives some innate capacity to love either].

RE: Don Addison I wish I really got to know Don Addison better while he was alive. I met him in 2005. I have some trust issues and areas I need work on reconciling appreciating interactions between whites embedded with American Indian heritage better. Part of that journey is finding Authentic White spiritual heritage advocacy with integrity. if there ever might be a root secret to the way Don Addison redeemed himself (as I think he’s mixed heritage and looks very white like me.) I think this woman ( Ruhiyyih Khanum ) had some exemplar influence who most definitely was the Late Wife of the One and only Guardian of the Baha’i Faith, Shoghi Effendi who Baha’is believe was the biblical child in the book of Isiah 11:6 “and a little child shall lead them”. https://youtu.be/pW4qAmfpjG8 9:24 + 11:11 “Blessed Mother” This is interesting https://bahai-library.com/pdf/k/khanum_message_indian_eskimo.pdf +

“Roadmap for a Moral Society # 69”
This blog entry is far beyond another Clearwater Baha’is RoadMap #69 critique as a major petpeeve of classic boomer feminist sexism seems revealed in entirely another video
“– 92 – O ye two believers in God! The Lord, peerless is He, hath made woman and man to abide with each other in the closest companionship, and to be even as a single soul. They are two helpmates, two intimate friends, who should be concerned about the welfare of each other. If they live thus, they will pass through this world with perfect contentment, bliss, and peace of heart, and become the object of divine grace and favor in the Kingdom of heaven. But if they do other than this, they will live out their lives in great bitterness, longing at every moment for death, and will be shamefaced in the heavenly realm. Strive, then, to abide, heart and soul, with each other as two doves in the nest, for this is to be blessed in both worlds.” – Abdu’l-Baha Selections from the Writings of Abdu’l-Baha https://www.bahai.org/…/selections-writings-abdul-baha…

Mr. J.A. Pilz writes in facebook dialogue: “The principal role of the assembly is to engage in teaching efforts… and assemblies currently don’t have the capacity to act as houses of justice. we need to rely on the USA judicial system for these types of things.”
TRUE to some degree or another! And for this purpose in the USA there is still a constitution that at least ostentatiously supports this right of our 1st amendment: and
New York Times Co. v. Sullivan, 376 U.S. 254 (1964)
Go back to the damn Howling Towelhead Siyah Chal Hole countries if you’re some kind of #fakebahai who’d dare coverup child abuse! in the name of preventing alleged “discord” or “contention” or “backbiting”
re: “The principal role of the assembly is to engage in teaching efforts” A religious assembly, Whether it’s Baha’i administration, or anywhere else, is going to encounter and feel obliged to respond and welcome refugees from disparaged, despondent, and demoralized people 1 way or another! It’s the nature of decline of Civilization any Baha’i can’t fail to notice. There’s no way around encountering child safety issues and policies of how children’s activities are organized! Without Adult maturity overseeing a playground for children, children descend into vicious games of a cruel “law of the jungle” pecking order we see in public schools all over the the damn USA.
These Baha’i principles of protecting children are crucial beyond crucial. They can’t be repeated enough! That’s why I ZEALOUSLY spam these image collages
to every corner of the universe I possible Can!
CHILD ABUSE FILM STAYING SILENT (a dramatization of Jeremy Indika’s experienc) of his childhood being cajoled in to homosexual child molestating baby sitter way back in the 1990’s. Jeremy is about 10 years younger than me.
As far as my personal situation was concerned, I’ve repeated this many, many times in many blog entries: Essentially my young naive parents then and there in Milwaukie, Oregon 1977 through 1982, and the community of Adult Baha’is thought nothing of abandoning me with older children and youth, 2 of whom ended up sexually molesting me, one of whom is about 5 years older than me). Even though he was a Youth or Pre-youth, and I was a child at the child.

Keith wants to be remembered as for their fine stellar poster ANATHEMAS to the Baha’i Faith’s principles of child rearing for what he did to me in the early 1980’s !
Ruhiyyih Khanum talks of anathema to Bahai’s what the consequences of child abandonment are:
The same Grooming tactics that Jeremy Indika dramatizes applies: that naivity of a child naively fawning at benevolent older brother, especially if he is refugee from mean and violent tempered bullies, makes
that child totally gullible and suggestible that a sick predator can exploit!

4/7/2024 8:35 pm UPDATE Roadmap for a Moral Society #67 – Prohibition of Contending with One Another
Proverbs 6:16-19 16 These six things doth the Lord hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him: 17 A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, 18 An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief, 19 A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren.

3 MINUTES PLUS JL PILZ https://www.facebook.com/mrjapilz SAYS:

“Disagreement between people however in our circumstance, beyond simply being a Discord that is by the dictionary definition we have defined it: specifically in the context of engaging in certain negative behavior and engaging in certain practices that is inappropriate. And these inappropriate behaviors would include: acting very badly towards someone to,
for example:to try to destroy them in a spirit that is not befitting for one who wishes to love all humanity, but rather in a spirit that is very negative self-seeking destructive and generally one that wishes to advance one over their brother, their sister, and their family.
What have you with that being said just to be clear we’re not talking about any kind of Discord we’re talking about a certain type of Discord and we’ve defined that earlier
but it was I think on the first

slide of this PowerPoint right can we quickly go theresince we know the slide number we’re on U sorry I don’t have
4:16
that opened up it’s okay that’s okay but I think it’s very important for all ofre: Tom Price. Even though I AGREE with Tom Price’s statements. The context can be totally golden, but this is the truth of what some of the audience finding his vido might react:
Idiocracy: Your Shit’s All Retarded & you talk like a 3-letter “F”word 4 bundle of Sticks!
3:15 FOR THOSE of you Baha’is who think you know what “discord” is and isn’t and have the absolute handle on truth of what discord is, I beg to differ. I DOUBT you will ever really start to even HAVE A CLUE what discord is until you’re faced with extreme tests and really look into a lot of ethical dilemmas unfolding ALL around you worldwide!
HERE this dialogue with an extreme homophobe:
THAT IS AN EXTREME EXAMPLE OF DISCORDANT COGNITIVE DISSONANCE in my interactions with BUMKIN expressing deluded extreme homosexual hostility from gab accounts to the point of perpetuating pedophilia due to incredulity and alleged “discord” tabboo!.
THE ULTIMATE “DISCORD:” expense of ignoring child abuse to where the child OR YOUTH victim commits suicide because of the community’s incredulity!. #OKGROOMER
THE MASS INCREDULITY for being too much A COWARD to nip ROOT CAUSE discord in the bud HAS consequences! Survivors of that incredulity have a duty to whistlebow and PUBLICLY post Testimony!
Root Cause and Contributing Factors https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=70DabkIHWK0
, out of ! has consequences. Survivors of that incredulity have a duty to whistlebow and PUBLICLY post Testimony!
This incredulity was the prevalent attitude of deluded cognitive dissonant 1st generation Baha’i Boomers I was raised around! at the notion of a child being groomed (as though it was the child’s fault for being abandoned) was all too true!
in 1996 2 conniving STEP PARENTS along with my mamby pamby mother Mother were determined to see that I was silenced and destroy any credibilty I had!
HERE IS drama that is very essential as it relates to a lot of teen suicides, and this asshole fraud alpha tough guy is very similar to the likes of 1 George Edwin Field &1 Donald Wind d.o.b. ~ 1/10/1950 and both of those (these hard ass working class grunt men,
both of them had daughters or a step daughter that were abused & nearly committed suicide afraid they were COMPLICIT! and would be blamed! ) #OKGROOMER:
There’s nothing more pathetic than an institution that’s tyrannical (whether it’s a secular city council, A SCHOOL BOARD, a Baha’i Local Spiritual Assembly, a committee of catholic priests, or Mormon Bishops
or Islamic terrorists theocracy presiding over the fate of Baha’is in Iran!
BULL SHIT under the AUSPICE of SAID “UNITY” and discord prevention will be REMEMBERED, RE-VISITED, and Taken account, by the once upon a time but no longer helpless child victims, 1 way 1 way OR ANOTHER!

or the inner workings of a Communist bureaucracy under Pol Pot or Jim Jones or Josef Stalin or Maoism in the 1960’s Chinese cultural revolution,).
There’s nothing worse than a committee of tools so brow beaten into cowards under the mercy of 1 or 2 ambitious dictating pontificating ARROGANT dorks. This is ridiculous. while all other assembly members or a majority are compliant brow beaten are just “silent” compliant cowards!
and just “going along to get along” for the auspice of “UNITY”
are BOTH examples of horrible egregious DISCORD TOO !
re: Thumper the Rabbit being scolded by his mother: This superficial attitude, as though we’re children AND kowtowing like a bunch of CHICKENSHITS
to the prevailent domineering wealthy heavy handed assembly members or chairperson with the “clout”, is bull shit
, and the complete AND utter TOTAL discord TOO !
The reason why I say this so Vehemently isn’t some ambition to “advance” myself over others. NO, that’s not even possible even if that’s what I did want,
BUT RATHER, to spare the innocent from imposition of cruelty of INCREDULOUS MAJORITY, dominance, or PREVALENT THOUGHT OR TREND that’s DELUDED!

Unless you live under a rock and fail to notice, there’s been several draconian brow beating committees pushing “woke” communism in the USA. That is the true instigation of discord. THESE kind of committees maybe totally UNIFIED and can easily dress up in all sorts of Baha’i scriptures against alleged,”discord” , but if they’re’re stupidly cognitive dissonant and quash and ignore child abuse!
SUCH so called “unified” administrative branches ARE the true instigators of DISCORD! The aftermath consequences will haunt each and every last 1 of you arrogant fake Baha’is who disrespect the safety of youth and children!
” Among the young ones in the community are those known as junior youth, who fall between the ages of, say, 12 and 15. They represent a special group with special needs as they are somewhat in between childhood and youth when many changes are occurring within them. Creative attention must be devoted to involving them in programmes of activity that will engage their interests, mold their capacities for teaching and service, and involve them in social interaction with older youth. The employment of the arts in various forms can be of great value in such activity.” https://bahai-library.com/uhj_ridvan_2000/
“1734. Evil Exists “We must never take one sentence in the Teachings and isolate it from the rest: it does not mean we must not love, but we must reach a spiritual plane where God comes first and great human passions are unable to turn us away from Him. All the time we see people who either through the force of hate or the passionate attachment they have to another person, sacrifice principle or bar themselves from the Path of God. “We know absence of light is darkness, but no one would assert darkness was not a fact. It exists even though it is only the absence of something else. So evil exists too, and we cannot close our eyes to it, even though it is a negative existence. We must seek to supplant it by good, and if we see an evil person is not influenceable by us, then we should shun his company for it is unhealthy.” (From a letter written on behalf of the Guardian to an individual believer, October 4, 1950: Spiritualism, Psychic Phenomena and Related Subjects, a compilation from the Universal House of Justice, February 14, 1973 to National Spiritual Assemblies)What is“Amr va Khalq“? it’s a compilation https://bahai-library.com/pdf/m/mazandarani_mccants_khalq_contents.pdf
