Sure why not, better borrow from B/net than Bollywood. If  Noddy the
Bahai loopy story teller Abdul Baha was alive today he would have to
eat his own prophetic words. Here is an example of his makebelieve
storytelling which would fit better into an Enid Blyton novel instead
of truthful fact.

Subject: Noddy the Bahai loopy story teller Abdul Baha

The year is 2003 and according to Bahai prophesy made by Noddy the
Bahai loopy story teller Abdul Baha over 80 years ago we were supposed
to have UNITY OF NATIONS at the end of the last century. Instead we
have nothing but disunity and in March this year the US and UK went to
war with Iraq against the UNITY OF NATIONS. So was Abdul Baha just as
much of a bluffer, spindoctor and liar back in 1912 as US president
George Bush and UK Prime minister Tony Blair were in 2003?

Just as untruths were told about large quanties of Weapons of Mass
Destruction in Iraq have not been found neither did Noddy the loopy
story teller Abdul Baha story about The fifth candle or *unity of
nations* ever materialise at the end of the last century.


"The fifth candle is the unity of nations--a unity which in this
century will be securely established, causing all the peoples of the
world to regard themselves as citizens of one common fatherland."
http://bahai-library.org/writings/shoghieffendi/wob/19.html

‘Behold how its light is now dawning upon the world's darkened
horizon. The first candle is unity in the political realm, the early
glimmerings can now be discerned… The fifth candle is the unity of
nations—a unity which in this century will be securely established,
causing all the peoples of the world to regard themselves as citizens
of one common fatherland… (p. 361)

Bahais live in a a little make believe world of Noddy and (tell me a
story before I go to sleep mummy) passed on to them by Noddy the Bahai
looper story teller Abdul Baha, when any 14 year old today could tell
you *The first candle is unity in the political realm,* has not even
happened yet.

Well, apart from the gratuitous insult to Abdu'l Baha, Error finally
has a good point here.

I guess I should congratulate him!

Anyone have any thoughts on what the true meaning of Abdu'l Baha's
predictions of an end of war and the beginning of a Lesser Peace might
mean?

(btw, Errol, you ought to make the distinction between Noddy, a
fictional character, and Enid Blyton, the actual storyteller)
