Bahai’ = the latest Dispensation from God = Progressive Revelation Imagine my astonishment when I happened across the teachings of the Bahai’ Faith, which came into being in the latter part of the nineteenth century. Its teachings are revolutionary. It allows one to keep the faith of one’s birth, in my case, Christian, but it opens up so many avenues to a faith greater than all religions, including itself. The Bahai’s firmly believe that theirs is not the last revelation, that more are to come. This sets them apart from all past religions. Unlike all previous religions of the past, the Bahai’ faith firmly counsels universal education, the education of women and the equal rights of women and men, the promotion and teaching of technology and science, and the list goes on and on. This sort of religion truly appeals to an intellectual such as myself. I shall be posting the tenets of the Bahai’ faith on a regular basis here on Minoan Linear A, Linear B, Knossos & Mycenae. Here are the first three observations from the faith:![]()

They are real eye-openers!
Who the hell?Matthew 16:23 Get behind me, Satan! As madness burrows through the psyche’s realm, it means to chew her up and spit her out. I ask you, who the hell was at the helm? And who was God to prove, “What’s that all about?” It rankles me too few will dare to ask why some of us are sane and others not, why some are not, while some are called to task, while others see their faith is come to naught. If faith in God were not enough, then what in hell would satisfy our lust for love, and what in Heaven’s name has madness wrought to place us altogether on the spot? Since your concern was just an empty show, Don’t ask me why. You know I’ll never know. Richard Vallance, January 10, 2017
POST 1,400: another sonnet of mine, based on the previous 2 haiku in Mycenaean Greek: Never fearMatthew 14:27 But Jesus immediately spoke to them, saying, Take courage; it is I: do not be afraid.
The Temple of Bahai’, Tel Aviv, Israel While you are so afraid of your own life, never fear for me, for I fear as well as well as you for every scrap of strife we shall have all endured by spiting hell: and it’s just as well, heaven willing earth shall allow Bahai’ the inspiration to distance wisdom of our precious worth, our spirit His, His imagination ours the “forever Was”, forever shared with every single soul, however ill: We’ll know the love of God has always spared us all and embraces us in his Will... ... and it’s just as well I can hear Him spell his Word on us to see us faring well.
