I have been a Baha`i for over 30 years. This is a legitimate world religion, not a branch or a cult. There is no clergy; but I have served on the local and national administrative bodies and as a public speaker, teacher, international pioneer, delegate to National Conventions, etc. The Faith teaches the Oneness of God, the Oneness of religion and the Oneness of mankind.
