I was visiting a new acquaintance over the weekend who happens to be a solar astronomer. I noticed while in her Lab that she had a lot of books about the Baha'i religion, which I knew next to nothing about. I was curious. During our discussion she told me that the Baha'i accept the teachings of most all the major religions as ingredients that make up one big pie. But then I began to wonder, where did they all come from? There seem to be a lot of similarities Hell? Angels? Satan? An original Paradise etc Lately the nefarious (though interesting) influence of the Catholic Church has been highlighted in movies like National Treasure and the Da Vinci Code, movies I know are fictionalized...but do they touch on grains of truth? How heavy of a silent influence does religion play today? ...outside of Al Qaeda of course!
