The Baha'i faith is really interesting because it emphasizes a unity of major world religions. This got me thinking: how separate are each individual religions underlying ideas from one another? Don't all religions essentially build off each other? This definitely seems to be the case. All the religions we've studied so far deal with one particular figure that represents an all-knowing, transcendental figure. Why is this? Why do most religions, mainly the ones we've discussed thus far, deal with the notion that we are inferior. Why must we be guided? What is this idea of guidance? I wonder if there is truth to this. Are all human beings in need of guidance? Is it possible to live a life with out a set of rules to follow? Is that is behind Atheism? Is there a need for a God like figure always? These are just some questions i wanted to raise that came to mind after reading about the Bahi'i.
