Publication |

Abstract

This article examines interpretations of Christianity in Babi and Baha'i religions with focus on development of tolerance to another religions. I am showing that the Baha'i approach has not changed too much from Babism, which is generaly intolerant to other religions, despite the fact that the Baha'i texts tend to emphasize unity of all religions.

This can be demonstrated by using writings of Abdulbaha's, whose texts are authoritative for Baha'i faith, for whom is true only his own specific interpretation of Bible and not normative Christian self interpretations.
