Have you ever heard about Iranian Bahai?

I have read alot of books written by women in Iran and I would say most of them were not very happy living a life where they felt they had no freedom in their own home. Besides that, I am fascinated with other cultures and religions and have many friends from the middle east through the internet and have come to the conclusion that each family is different in each town and country everywhere and you can not judge a country by looking at a few people in it.

I like Iranian people with different religions. Specifically Iranian Jews.

Most Iranians are Muslims; 90% belong to the Shi'a branch of Islam, the official state religion, and about 8% belong to the Sunni branch, mainly Kurds and Iran's Balochi Sunni. The remaining 2% are non-Muslim religious minorities, including Bahá'ís, Mandeans, Hindus, Sikhs,Yezidis, Yarsanis, Zoroastrians, Jews, and Christians. The latter three minority religions are officially recognized and protected, and have reserved seats in the Majles (Parliament). However the Bahá'í Faith, Iran's largest religious minority, is not officially recognized, and has been persecuted during its existence in Iran.

i don't know what you are asking. But I know there a Jews in Iran - they are protected by law under the Islamic government. Did you know there are also ski areas in Iran also? I don't know for sure if any of the Iranian Jews ski but they probabyly do (except on Sabbath).

I'm not sure what specific kind of answer you are asking, but I have dated a man from Iran (breaking up with him was a big mistake and I miss John), but he was very spiritual. Did not define himself as religious, neither devout Christian nor devout muslim, but was spiritual, and always kind. I broke up with him because I was divorced and starting to fall in love with him, but we were totally opposite. We did discuss religion many times, and spiritual is how he described himself.

I live in California, very close to a very large Baha'i community. A good deal of them are from Iran and many of them have told me that they faced great persecution while living there, hence their immigration to the US and/or Israel.

I think everyone on this earth has the right to worship or not to worship any religion that they feel is right for them. If it gives them faith and strength to make it through the day, then they shouldn't be prosecuted for believing in something.
