I view God as a transcendent architect and prime mover, yet a small question has arisen for me: what would be the reason for creating the universe? If He possesses some form of personal intellect, wouldn't it make sense for Him to already know the outcome of His project—from the Big Bang to the Big Freeze? On the other hand, if He is an impersonal entity, what would be the logic behind His creative nature? Perhaps it is overly anthropomorphic to think that everything must have a motive, but I believe that even the law of causality must have a reason, however simple.

I found out that there is one in my country, and I plan to visit it one day, but I don't know much about the service or what can and cannot be done. I don't want to accidentally offend anyone out of ignorance. In all my life, I have only visited churches, and even in them I'm somewhat shy, so I would like to ask if there is anything I should know beforehand.

Hello, recently I have been very interested in studying the Baha'i Faith, but there is a doubt that gnaws at me. In previous revelations of each Prophet, even if their teachings have been corrupted, it is accepted that there are at least small parts that are still true, such as in the Torah or the Gospels. But in other traditions, specifically Buddhism, it feels as if there were not even the slightest effort to read the Tripitaka or Sutras and say, “Yes, this was probably an original teaching from God.” Instead, it seems to simply say that Buddha was a Manifestation of God, but his revelation was lost—and now millions of Buddhists have been following the wrong teachings for thousands of years, and that's it?

I know perfectly well that there is no eternal punishment and that even a lost soul will eventually draw closer to God. He is merciful. But what about all these traditions? Were they really not given a chance in this life?

Imagine that your community failed and your tradition was lost, it would simply be the bane of humanity and there would be no way to save yourself anymore or some other tradition would have a partial part of the truth or the truth itself in Imagine that your community failed and your tradition was lost, it would simply be the bane of humanity and there would be no way to save yourself or some other tradition would have a partial part of the truth or the truth itself in the absence of yours?
