Baha'i Exclusivism

Baha'is are becoming exclusivist, but not me. I am a Baha'i and I accept 
many things that you can't. Even if you can't accept those things, you
have 
to accept that I do for the sake of the religion we both love.

Further, over literalizing may be a spiritual disease defined by 
Baha'u'llah.  The greater reasoning He gave us does not allow us to 
literalize His lexicon to find words in Ocean to sup****t our puny
assertions 
about what He meant.  He meant what He wrote, and we need no books to tell

us what He meant, based upon which word or words were translated here as
one 
thing and there as another.

If the meaning isn't immediately clear then several interpretations are 
acceptable.  The best interpretation is the one most likely to help people

better their lives and the lives of those around them.
