	5. THE BAHA'I COMMUNITY
		Adjacent to the shrine of the Báb in Haifa is a semicircular pathway, known as "the arc", on which are the main administrative buildings of the world centre.
		Bahá'ís, therefore, consider the Bahá'í administration as being sacred in nature and as integral a part of the Bahá'í Faith as the Bahá'í teachings; indeed the Bahá'í administration is seen as the incarnation of the spirit of the Bahá'í Faith.
		The central institution of this appointed arm of the Bahá'í administration is the International Teaching Centre, which is based in Haifa.

	Shoghi Effendi: Guide for a New Millennium
		In addition to completing the edifice for the Shrine of the Báb, which `Abdu'l-Bahá had commenced at the instruction of His Father, Shoghi Effendi traced in the form of an arc the path along which the buildings for the administrative institutions of the Faith would be erected.
		The community's burgeoning along the lines traced by Shoghi Effendi strongly suggests that the demonstrated efficacy of his guidance and its salience for social reconstruction of the planet are bound increasingly to impress themselves upon public consciousness and inevitably to influence the shaping of a millennium.
		That Shoghi Effendi was able to inspire such a movement of scores of volunteers who were unschooled in missionary work, and whose sole qualification was their profound devotion to the Cause of Bahá'u'lláh, is an impressive index of the dynamism of his Guardianship.

		The subject is particularly apt, as, only a few months ago the Seat of the International Teaching Centre was officially opened and the Arc was completed.
		Its inception will synchronize with two processes operating within the Bahá’í Faith - the maturation of local and national Bahá'i institutions and the completion of specified buildings around the Arc on Mount Carmel - and will portend the coming of he Most Great Peace."
		It will involve fixing every nation's boundaries, strictly limiting the size of armaments, laying down the principles underlying the relations among governments, and ascertaining all international agreements and obligations.

		The fruits of the earth and of all labor shall be cast into the rab'bah's house, and by him delivered unto the needy.

		Hence they are direct worshippers, being taught to worship Jehovih with their own prayers and songs.

		101 In a memorandum prepared for the Universal House of Justice dated 6 Nov. 1990, Esslemont’s reference to the prophecy of ‘Abd al-Baha’ is dismissed by the Research Department by referring to it as belonging to “pilgrims’ notes”.

	Paganism & Heresy
		Paganism and sorcery were always favourite targets of the Inquisition, particularly in France, where Joan of Arc was burnt as a witch in 1431, but wholesale persecution of adherents of the old religion did not take hold until Innocent VIII became concerned about the spread of Witchcraft in Germany.
		In 1484 he published a Bull 'Summis Desiderantes Affectibus' (approx: 'The highest desire for the beloved'), inspired by a one-liner in Exodus Ch 22, V 18: "You shall not permit a sorceress to live".
		The Dominicans were given the job, and this was doubtless made easier 20 years later when Innocent IV published the Bull 'Ad Extirpanda' which allowed the Inquisition to use torture.
