If you'd like to talk about becoming a Baha'i, please feel free to post your questions in this board.
The following is from the U.S. Baha'i web site:
A person becomes a Baha'i by recognizing Baha’u’llah as the Messenger of God for this age, and by following His laws and teachings and the guidance of the administrative institutions He established for the unification of humankind. Baha'is enjoy the right to vote in Baha'i elections, serve as members of Baha'i administrative institutions and contribute to Baha'i funds.
We invite you to declare your belief in Baha'u'llah by contacting Baha'is near you.
Please call 1-800-22-UNITE to locate Baha'is in your area. A member of the Baha'i Faith will contact you to confirm your wish to become a Baha'i and will invite you to participate in Baha'i activities.
Generally, the enrollment of a new believer involves three steps:
- Declaration of faith
- The processing of your declaration by a Local Spiritual Assembly (the Baha’i administrative institution)
- The recording of your enrollment by the Membership Office of the National Spiritual Assembly
