Default Can you be apart of Bah?'? and still be an atheist? Is that possible?

I am asking because they see Buddha as one of their Prophets.
The Happy Murcia: Thats not true actually, plenty of atheists are Jains and Buddhists.

I doubt it since the concept of a monotheistic God does exist within the Baha'i faith;

"All-praise to the unity of God, and all-hon our to Him, the sovereign Lord, the incomparable and all-glorious Ruler of the universe, Who, out of utter nothingness, hath created the reality of all things, Who, from naught, hath brought into being the most refined and subtle elements of His creation, and Who, rescuing His creatures from the abasement of remoteness and the perils of ultimate extinction, hath received them into His kingdom of incorruptible glory. Nothing short of His all-encompassing grace, His all-pervading mercy, could have possibly achieved it"

Well I guess you could adopt their teachings for yourself, yes that would be possible, but I'm afraid that the Baha'i community would not accept you as a Baha'i.

To be accepted as a Baha'i you would have to register with the Baha'i world counsel (or something like that) and they would not allow you to register if you are an atheist, I'm sorry.

The Baha'i I've encountered say we are all Baha'is and just don't realize it yet.

How arrogant. They began as a special assassin squad for Islam but broke away. In fact, prior to today's version, they have a pretty bloody history. Look into them.
