The Catholic Church differs somewhat from the Baha'i Faith, because it 
has a very long and well documented history.   So the Catholic Faith, at 
any point in time, consists of the historic faith AND the summation of 
all faith of its current members.   If every Catholic were to die today, 
and the Church ended, then the faith would still live on to a great 
extent because of its impact on history and society.

The Baha'i Faith is different because it does not have a long and well 
documented history.  So the Baha'i Faith, at any point in time, consists 
more of the summation of all faith of its current members, than does the 
Catholic Church.   So an attack on the members is more of an attack on 
the faith itself than would be in the Catholic Church, or any other of 
the major religions.
