Baha'i?

Didn't research it, but the name sounds like what I would say: Blah!

There is but one God Almighty, but others call on false gods. Our God would not inspire the false doctrine other faiths adhere to. :nono They do NOT call on the same God by another name, based on that.
 
I figured the response would be something like that. They do have some interesting practices though, like fasting from dawn til dusk for 20 days straight.
 
Do any of them live in Alaska? :toofunny (ya, know...3 months of daylight)

Still, BLAH!

Without researching it why would you come to that conclusion? Sounds like personal opinion that you have it right and everyone else is wrong? Doesn't leave much room for 'growing' does it?

Three core principles establish a basis for Bahá'í teachings and doctrine: the unity of God, the unity of religion, and the unity of humankind.[3] From these postulates stems the belief that God periodically reveals his will through divine messengers, whose purpose is to transform the character of humankind and develop, within those who respond, moral and spiritual qualities. Religion is thus seen as orderly, unified, and progressive from age to age.

Who are these messengers? These messengers have included Abraham, Buddha, Jesus, Muhammad and others, and most recently the Báb and Bahá'u'lláh.

Doesn't sound to 'blah' to me, in fact some good points are raised. I plan on doing a little research and looking into this set of beliefs and will comment back. I would suggest a little research wouldn't hurt you as well. Here's a start.

Sounds real pretty! Unfortunately your messengers bring different messages.
