In my opinion the permissive disease originating with Covenant Breakers
is not limited to them, and we should be very wary of their associates
or anyone actively trying to undermine the Baha'i Faith and its
institutions.
I do not think that the Universal House of Justice has ever declared
someone who has left the Faith as a Covenant Breaker. Only someone who
has accepted a covenant can break it. It seems to me that when the
Universal
House of Justice does not declare an antagonistic ex-Baha'i a Covenant
Breaker it is because they no longer have jurisdiction over them. God
does!
In my mind they still have the disease and should be avoided. I have
communicated with two well known Baha'is who have left the Faith rather
than
risk being designated Covenant Breakers. I consider this a cop-out. If
they
were so sure of their views they should have defended them. I no longer
communicate with either of them.
