UK Census 2011, Exposes the false Claims of Baha’is

 

 

 

“Baha’is in the United Kingdom”m”

 

There are only 5021 Baha’is in UK against claimed to be more then 34,000. Adherents of the Baha’i Faith increased to 5,021 from 4,645 in the 2001 census; that is an annual 0.78% growth per year. Put more simply, between 37-38 new Baha’is have been added per year since 2001. I’m not sure if you can call this ‘growth’? It is slightly higher than the general population growth of 0.70% per year. Which means nobody has accepted the Baha’i Faith in the last ten years except the children of Baha’i parents!

One hundred years ago, ‘Abdu’l-Bahá, the son of the Founder of the Baha’i Faith, arrived in the United Kingdom for the first of his two visits. He was 66 years old. He wasted no time in taking His Father Bahá’u’lláh’s message of peace and religious renewal to western societies. His visits were crucial in the establishment of the Baha’i Faith in the UK. In London, ‘Abdu’l-Bahá gave public lectures at City Temple, St John the Divine in Smith Square, and elsewhere. At City Temple, he said that, “The gift of God to this enlightened age is the knowledge of the oneness of mankind and of the fundamental oneness of religion.” At St John, the translation of ‘Abdu’l-Bahá’s remarks was read by the Archdeacon of Westminster, Albert Wilberforce.

There are many stories of ‘Abdu’l-Bahá’s activities in Britain. His acts of charity at homeless shelters and for the poor; His audiences for hundreds of well-wishers and questioners; His constant emphasis on political reconciliation in the pre-war period; His call for racial harmony and an end to prejudice; all of these episodes set for Baha’is an enduring example of a life dedicated to the service of humanity.

In response to such services of Abdul Baha, The British Government honored Abdul Baha with a Knighthood, which he accepted as a gesture of honoring formally by a just king.

Abdul Baha wrote a letter of gratitude “O God, the tabernacle of justice has truly been erected on this holy land, and we thank and praise Thee. O God, may Emperor George V, Ruler of Britain, be assisted in his divine achievements, and May his shadow over this realm be everlasting.”

Abdu’l-Bahá’s visits were seen by Baha’is as a blessing, as inspiring today as they were a century ago. In celebration of His visits, Baha’is in the UK are rededicating themselves to the service of others.

Despite such a “glorious background” of the Baha’i Faith in the UK and a massive investment of resources over the years in the form of planning of BA for implementation of MASS TEACHINGS and RUHI BOOK curriculum, the Baha’i and the Baha’i Faith has failed to gain acceptance in the British Society.

The program of “Moral Classes” for children and “spiritualizing” the Jr. Youth and thereby attracting the parents of these children and youths has failed miserably. The official census of UK of 2011 states that there are only 5021 Baha’is. The figure is not subject to inaccuracies as can be expected in some other countries, as publishing false census is a punishable offence strictly enforced in the country. Why is then, that Baha’is of UK keep claiming since 2004 that there are 34,000 Baha’is in UK? Is it not deceiving people and going against the laws of the country? Baha’is keep on struggling to advertise their success forgotten the very principles truth and justice.

The figures clearly speak that despite the impetus provided by the Abdul Baha, Baha’is have not been able to sustain it. Rather they have regressed. Rastafarianism another religious cult, whose founder died in 1974, is better accepted in the British society as they have more followers then Baha’is. They have 7,906 adherents which is more than the Baha’i Faith.

Baha’is claim of highly exaggerated Baha’i population for every country. Thanks to Various Government agencies and the Internet their lies are getting exposed.
