This is pretty honest and straightforward proclamation if you ask me. It is a genuine statement, and quite truthful. What am I missing in your question? I don't feel that the evangelical Baha'i marketing material you come across on the internet really tell you the "unveiled" picture of Bahaullah. I consider that stuff to be veils as they (the marketing material) only claim to target theists.
You seem to be dodging the question. I'm asking why should I adhere to the baha'i religion... It's a very simple and non complex question.
By your logic, anyone who claims to be holy or divine is worthy of being followed by a group of believers.
If I proclaimed to be god's hand on earth, would people create a religion around me?
I'm asking what evidence is there that the baha'i god exists, and not merely belief or faith.
Where can I sign up to be a Blackoutian?

Han Solo: Kid, I've flown from one side of this galaxy to the other, and I've seen a lot of strange stuff, but I've never seen *anything* to make me believe that there's one all-powerful Force controlling everything. 'Cause no mystical energy field controls *my* destiny. It's all a lot of simple tricks and nonsense.
