Default so anyone heard of the baha'i group?

I can go to any web page for standard answers, am interested rather in personal experiences with Baha'i people
potheads, as in Rastafarian type who use the ganja to get spiritual?

that would be interesting

When I was in College I hung out with a group of Baha'is. They were very open to all religions, and at the time I still believed in God. However, they're still rejecting of homosexuality, and so I cannot recommend that anyone who still is a theist consider them as an option. Unitarians and Buddhists are much more reasonable, and just as open and accepting of other faiths.

Bah?'u'll?h calmed to be fulfilling all the prophecy of the world religions and so it is the only religion to follow [sound familiar}. The people I have talk to were nice but they say all other religious people are out to get them?? I don't fully understand, but this is what I have been told. http://bahai.org/

Well, you seem to be collecting quite a variety of answers! May I clarify one or two things?

1. Baha'is are not potheads. Drugs are specifically forbidden by Baha'u'llah.

2. There is some persecution, mostly (if not all) from Muslim governments. Iran under the Ayatollah Khomeini was particularly hostile. The Baha'i Faith was outlawed and Baha'is lost their jobs, their possessions, their freedom and, sometimes, their lives. It had gotten better, but the current regime seems to be heading back to the bad old days. I hope that does not happen.
