I'm actually rather suprised that somebody who's been a member of this site for so long knows so little about the Baha'i faith. 1.The Báb was actually exectued for his teachings. You can find out more by looking at Baha'i history. 2. look here: http://bci.org/prophecy-fulfilled/index.htm 3. Baha'is ...

"Seal of the Prophets"
Okay, I would like to be clear on this whole thing. I have heard multiple explainations to what this means, and I really think I need an answer. I am thinking of becoming a Bahá'í and this is a major roadblock for me.

I think now. It would help over-population and we'd have a backup world if the earth is hit by a huge meteor or something.
