The Baha'i Predicament
#1
The Baha'i Predicament
Hello all,

My friend (an atheist) is married to an Indian woman (with a trend to believe that there must be some supernatural cosmic power out there, but with no ties to a religion and an astrology believer). Her parents are Baha'i and as of late they really tend to impose on their relationship in a matriarchical/patriarchical kind of way. Before they got married they really pushed em to get married because they wouldnt allow premarital sex and/or being the two of em alone in a house.

I would like to know what are the Baha'i beliefs in such cases, and some cons for being a Baha'i. Do they have any absurd ideas like the rest of religions do?

If anyone has any link of their holy scripts or some verses with spicy content that'd be lovely too.

Thank you.
