Default What is Baha'i?

I'd like to know more about this faith. Any info would help. I've looked it up on the net but still don't quite understand it. Is it considered "Christian"? What I mean by that is, do they believe that Christ is the son of God and our savior? Like I said, any info would help but serious answers only. Please.
Thank you all for the info. I wish I could choose a best answer but each of them has given me more info than I had before. Again, thanks.

It is a re legion comes after Islam, and was founded in Shiraz city of Iran. Some thinkers consider it as a branch of Islam and that it is not an independent faith. But the Baha'es themselves say it is an independent re legion but it declares the past re legions came from God. They believe that all re legions have being come from the same source (God). This faith is founded to integrate all faiths into one faith. They call for "the unity of all re legions".
They believe in God as the only God, no sons... no partners..
They believe in "Baha'ollah" as a founder and they have their own book, prayers and teachings.
Hope I helped.

It was found in Iran. They hung their founder and Baha'i people are saying that he was rose again and went to heaven. they believe him as god.

Jesus to them was a prophet. they are saying the world will get better and every thing will be so good.

they do not believe hell. because to them God is so good and He would never put anyone to hell.

their greetings is Allah ab ha ( Abdul Ahab is god).

their mecca is in Haifa Israel. their fast and calender and they have other things that is base on #9.

they are lost and it is very hard to bring them to Christ because they are Happy go lucky people and they do not accept hell and wrath of God.

Hi, i am a Baha'i. The Baha'i faith is a new world independent religion founded by Baha'u'llah in 1844. We want Unity in Diversity, peace on earth. We accept all the Manifestations of God, so we believe in Christ, Mohammed,...

Bahai's believe that every so many years, another manifestation of God comes along. It's kind of like avatars in Hinduism. They (Jesus, Muhammad, Adam, Krishna, Buddha, Zoroaster, Bahaullah etc.) actually are God. They come with a new message that is compatible with the time. Therefore, Jesus's teachings were for his time, and Bahaullah's are for today.
