That is how religion works, sweetie. The rules only apply to your own village.

Uniting the world under their religion would mean that helping anyone would be helping a Baha'i so it isn't really hypocrisy.

That's not true. My mother has several very good friends who are Bahai and they help her all the time in things big and small. NEXT!

Is there some kind of respected survey you are quoting? This kind of statement based on one individuals biased and prejudicial views does NOT serve to unite mankind......it only divides people. There are Baha'i service projects to benefit mankind all over the world. Are Baha'is perfect? No.....but they have a long-term plan and vision to uplift the world and eliminate all prejudice.

It is always interesting to hear a statement without backup or detail - it makes it hard to provide any coherent response. In any case, as mentioned in the previous statement, Baha'is are not perfect but to say that Bahai's only help Baha'is is on its face incorrect. Just as a small example, this web page list dozens of Baha'i inspired projects from around the world that help Baha'is and non-Baha'is alike:

However, the fact that you made the statement must mean that something happened that you strongly disagree with. It would be helpful to understand what happened to see if there is a more specific response that could be made to your statement.

Take care...
