Default Could someone that knows about it please explain the ideals of the Baha'i faith?

I know some people that are Baha'i, and was just wondering about their beliefs. If someone out there is Baha'i, could you just give me an overview of what it is about and what it is based on. Thanks, I appreciate it.

I am a Christian, but I agree with progressive revelation, so i can comment on that, but not any other parts of their faith.

Basically, it means that every religion on earth was started by a messenger of God, and therefore all religions are based in the truth of God's word, pr oven by the fact that they all share the same codes of ethics.

Do you mean B' Nair Noach? Non-Jews who obey the 7 commandments of Noah that G-d gave the humanity before he gave the 10 commandments to the Hebrew people (Jews) and only them. So the Gentiles (non-Jews) have the responsibility of obeying the 7 commandments of Noah plus 66 laws we should follow. I'm not the best person to explain this so you might want to go to WNW.noahide.org

Generally, the Baha'i faith is a monotheistic faith from present day Iran, founded in the 19Th century that believes in the spiritual brotherhood of all mankind. The abolition of prejudice and acceptance of almost all religions is central to their beliefs. They also believe in prophets like Abraham, Mohammed(pub) etc, but believe different things about them and that each prophet prophesied the next.
