To join

How do I become a Bahá’í?

A person becomes a Bahá’í by recognizing Bahá’u’lláh as the Messenger of God for this age and accepting to follow His laws and teachings and the administrative institutions He established for the unification of humankind. People enroll in a Bahá’í community by signifying such belief and commitment, orally or in writing, to the responsible Bahá'í institution.

Just e-mail them. Unfortunately I couldn't get an adress.

Answer 3

My view is that religions are pointless. They cant help you, no matter how much you want it. Read there scriptures, take what you can from them, and then if it still suits you, move on to the next and take what you can from them. Most have nothing to offer, christianity for instance.
