Hi Susan, I am not sure the writer of Tahirih's Letter has "gone of the
deep
end".
It is always easier to tell others to arise and teach than it is to do it
ourselves. And I find it distasteful personally when I read such letters,
but I trust the motives asking us to arise and teach are good motives.
Tahirih's Letter says what I believe, that in whatever name we demonstrate
God's attributes is fine. I believe anyone who arises to serve God under
the name of any religion is welcomed.
I believe that is what Tahirih's letter says, and that is not wacko, in my
opinion. It is correct, but we all know it is correct and we have
committed
what we can to the Cause. It is nice that such letters circulate, in my
opinion.
