About this blog

May 14th, 2008 by admin

The Baha’i religion, like all religions before it, has faced oppostion since its very beginning. This personal blog intends to look at the nature of that opposition, occasionally refute specific attacks made upon the Baha’i Faith, look at previous attempts at Baha’i apologetics including my own, and, in so doing, reflect on the process by which individual Baha’is engage in defense of faith discourse, or apologetics. My hope is that the effort here will come to reflect Baha’i best practices.

This blog is a repository of my personal reflections and, like every blog, it is always “under construction,” just as every soul including my own is forever developing.

Thanks to all of the Friends who have given me such helpful feedback, both unsolicited and requested, on my blogging efforts.

George Wesley Dannells
