      @@curtrice6060 Hi Curt, Perhaps one of the reasons our attention is being directed to Iran is because of the struggling and relatively new (1844) faith of the Báb and Bahá'í Faith(s). This has been a long fight and the message of the Bahá'ís is to have love yet to have justice. To stand up to tyrannical governments, but otherwise do your best to live in accord with governments striving to be just and offer people freedoms as well as the independent investigation of religion. The equality of men and women, the elimination of prejudice are just some of the guidance for this day and age. The over arching them is unity of religion as it follows the idea of progressive revelation where different messages of the God that is beyond human understanding (we are God's creation, so creations are in a subordinate relation to their creator) have been presented to different people at different times (consider the major religions from Hinduism to Buddhism, Judaism, Christianity, Islam...). Bahá'ís ask so much of themselves and are working hard to bring a message where we are allies with one another in our efforts to bring about a better world.💞🙏🏼🎵

    All that Masih Alinejad said about her childhood resonate with me. My father and my mother were the harshest morality Police that I had known. I was like a prisoner in my own home, in my own skin. From the age of 9 I knew that family and country was not for me. I had to wear Hijaab / Chador even long before the Islamic Revolution. I was 9 & 1/2 years old when the Islamic Revolution Occurred but I had to wait another 17 years until I could successfully ran away from that frenetic Muslim family and the society. I have been living in Canada for soon to be 27 years and never stepped back in that country with those oppressive rules and regulations. I don't have anything to do with change of the current government or anything. If the regime changes, I will be simply happy for the people living in Iran.

Still, even in Canada we have struggled for equal rights, and opportunities and pay for women. I dream of the day where women will have equal regard, all over the World. A World where the Heads of State of at least half the countries, will be women. I will not live to see it, but that day will come.
