Avoiding extremes of liberality vs. dogmatism

From Bahai9
Jump to:navigation, search

Not to be so liberal nor fanatical[edit]

"We believe in balance in all things; we believe in moderation in all things -- we must not be too emotional, nor cut and dried and lacking in feeling, we must not be so liberal as to cease to preserve the character and unity of our Bahá'í system, nor fanatical and dogmatic."

(On behalf of Shoghi Effendi to an individual believer, 5 July 1947, in Science and Technology (compilation), no. 7)
