They are not my words they were Fredrick Glaysher's words, and I support them 100% http://www.fglaysher.com/bahaicensorship/Kelly100502.htm The tradition of Bahaism have a tendency to view western politics through their own writings and moral spectacles. To have a top Microbiologist like Dr Kelly involved in high goverment imbrace the Faith was a great catch for the Bahai faith. But only when his name and vocation were known to a few high up in the AO. Once his name became world media news because of his suicide over the controversial argument between the BBC and the British Government and finally the Hutton inquiry, the Bahai AO will distance itself like they did with the murder of Dan Jordan. The evidence given by Barney Leith at the Hutton Inquiry was 100% behind protecting the good name of the Bahai Faith, not protecting the good name of Dr Kelly. This is why Barney contradicted Geeta and Roger Kingdon story they told the media about the talk Dr Kelly give to 30 Bahais in October 2002. Geeta and Roger Kingdon were honest Bahais who had nothing to hide, when interviewed by the media, but Barney leith had to change the story to protect the UK NSA and the UHJ. Below is a more truthful Bahai admittance with regards the actions of Dr Kelly, which were a contradiction of the bahai teachings...........Errol "A glance around the Bosch Baha'i School's bookshop reveals some possible sources of tension for Dr Kelly. Several tomes focus on the divine importance of the UN, which was eventually ignored by the United States and Britain after it refused to support a military campaign to remove the Iraqi regime. With that in mind, it is hard to see how Dr Kelly could ever have supported an Iraq war without UN approval. "Even more ominous, however, is a tract entitled Political Non-Involvement and Obedience to Government, compiled by Peter J. Khan. The book spells out the Baha'is' belief that they should not become involved in any form of politics, because politics can create divisions that could destroy the Baha'i community. As part of this argument, Baha'is believe that they should support their government, whether just or unjust (there are, however, exceptions). On page 28, Khan poses a question that Dr Kelly himself could have asked: What should we do when controversies arise as a result of government policies? The answer, provided by the Guardian of the Baha'i faith, the late Shoghi Effendi Rabbani, is this: "In such controversies they should assign no blame, take no side, further no design, and identify themselves with no system prejudicial to the best interests of that worldwide fellowship which it is their aim to guard and foster." Khan's book makes it clear that any Baha'i who does not follow this advice is ultimately weakening the Baha'i religion. Given this official position from the Guardian, it is not hard to imagine Dr Kelly's horror when he was named as the alleged source of a story blaming Britain's decision to go to war on a press secretary who "sexed up" intelligence reports. But would the Guardian have condoned suicide? "Let's just say," says Mrs VonBerg, "that it would not follow the teachings of the Baha'i faith." http://www.uga.edu/bahai/2003/030903-9.html
