I'd never even heard of the "Baha'i faith (BH)", but it seems respectable as religions go:The Baháʼí Faith has its most prominent temple in the United States located in Wilmette, Illinois.
Drive north from Chicago on Lakeshore Drive and you can’t miss it. It is beautiful. The public is welcome to stroll its grounds and enter the temple.
Its adherents tend to be quiet. You may already know some of them and not be aware they are Baha’i.
Seals and Crofts for instance- their easy rock provided much of the backdrop for the 70’s-early 80’s.

I’ve known a few Iranian Baha’i. They fled Iran in 79 and have now become part of the beautiful cultural tapestry of America.
