I'd like to know more about this faith. Any info would help. I've looked it up on the net but still don't quite understand it. Is it considered "Christian"? What I mean by that is, do they believe that Christ is the son of God and our savior? Like I said, any info would help but serious answers only. Please.

Baha'i is a Sufi cult that originated in Iran. The founder of the cult, Mirza Husayn Ali Nuri (aka Baha'u'llah) was a Persian man who was arrested for collaboratign to assasinate the Shah of Iran. He was put on death row but was saved by the intercession of the Russian Ambassador who was at that time at war with Iran. He was then exiled out of the country and started making claims about recieving revelationd from God and later on claimed to be God Himself. He practiced polygamy and had 3 concurrent wives (according to some sources 4) and brought laws that include burning arsons alive and marking thieves (like cattle?) on their foreheads. Currently the cult is administered from its headquarters in Israel and enjoys great relations with the child murdering zionist regime. The worldwide Baha'i population is extremely exxaggerated and its followers strictly submit to orders that come from cult headquarters known as the Universal house of Justice (UHJ). Disobeying orders can have severe consequences like being excommunicated in a manner that even your closest friends and relatives are not allowed to speak or have any connections with you.

It is a relegion comes after Islam, and was founded in Shiraz city of Iran. Some thinkers consider it as a branch of Islam and that it is not an independent faith. But the Baha'es themselves say it is an independent relegion but it declares the past relegions came from God. They believe that all relegions have being come from the same source (God). This faith is founded to integrate all faiths into one faith. They call for "the unity of all relegions".
They believe in God as the only God, no sons... no partners..
They beleive in "Baha'ollah" as a founder and they have their own book, prayers and teachings.
Hope I helped.

Bahai's believe that every so many years, another manifestation of God comes along. It's kind of like avatars in Hinduism. They (Jesus, Muhammad, Adam, Krishna, Buddha, Zoroaster, Bahaullah etc.) actually are God. They come with a new message that is compatible with the time. Therefore, Jesus's teachings were for his time, and Bahaullah's are for today.

It was found in Iran. They hung their founder and Baha'i people are saying that he was rose again and went to heaven. they believe him as god.
Jesus to them was a prophet. they are saying the world will get better and every thing will be so good.
they do not believe hell. because to them God is so good and He would never put anyone to hell.
their greetings is Allah abha ( Abdul vahab is god).
their mecca is in Haifa Israel. their fast and calender and they have other things that is base on #9.
they are lost and it is very hard to bring them to Christ because they are Happy go lucky people and they do not accept hell and wrath of God.
