What happened to the independent investigation of truth?

By Janet Steele

To the followers of the headless "UHJ":

The first principal of the Faith is being attacked by your organization.

The "UHJ" is dictating what you can read, who you associate with and what your personal relationships should be. Can you truly support an organization that is virtually eliminating a fundamental principal of the Faith that you love? What other principals of this Faith will become obsolete so they can stay in control?  The "UHJ" has taken away the Living Guardianship from you and now they are taking away your independence to search for truth.  What else will they take from you? How would it be if scientific study were conducted this way?

I'm guessing we would still think that the world was flat. We do not live in a flat world.

Read the "Tablet to the True Seeker", "The Will and Testament of Abdul Baha" and the one and only Proclamation of Shoghi Effendi.

The search for Truth does not end when we find the Faith, it begins.

I pray that the friends are fearless and brave in their quest for Divine Truth and that your search be fruitful.
