Anyone aware that yesterday was the birthday of the Bab, prophet of the Baha'i faith?

The Unity of God is the revelation of Baha'i believers everywhere, and the Bab was one of the most effulgent manifestations. Prayers from every religion are recited in Baha'i gatherings around the globe, to stress the commonality between peoples of every faith. Wikipedia Baha'i to learn more about this enlightened, ecumenical religion of reconciliation.

Unaware.
And unaffected.
Did you celebrate?

I did not. I probably should have, though, as I have some friends who are members of the Bah?'? Faith. May peace be upon the Bab's memory, and I will belatedly say a Bah?'? prayer today in his honor.

"Prayers from every religion are recited in Baha'i gatherings around the globe..." - because you lack confidence in your own prayers!

It may be called as Babylon - confusion!

I'd have known if they didn't use that bizarre 19-month calendar!

Yes, I did! Allah'u'Abha!

EDIT: The Bab was actually the Prophet of the Babi Faith, precursor to the Baha'i Faith.
