Talk:Horace Holley (Baháʼí)

untitled
I believe that the correct information is that Horace Holley was the Editor of World Order Magazine, not World Unity Magazine. He was much more than that. He was the Secretary of the U.S. National Spiritual Assembly for many of its formative years. He authored the book "Religion for Mankind", a series of well-written essays addressed to an intellectual readership. He compiled and published an early volume of Baha'i Writings known as "Baha'i Scriptures." He was selected by Shoghi Effendi to author the summary of activities throughout the worldwide Baha'i community which was published in the "Baha'i World" volumes, as attested by Ruhiyyih Khanum: "[Horace Holley] whom he himself [Shoghi Effendi] had chosen as the most gifted and informed person to write the International Survey of Current Bahá'í Activities, to which he [Shoghi Effendi] attached great importance." (Ruhiyyih Khanum, The Guardian of the Baha'i Faith, p. 90). Note by Brent Poirier, a Baha'i. Nov. 12, 2008.24.63.162.219 (talk) 03:38, 13 November 2008 (UTC)
