Personally, I'm more of a fan of the Unitarian-Universalists. They're more tolerant and open than the Baha'is and more about community and philosophy than they are about doctrine.

No alcohol? Well that's no good. I read about their openness to all religions and such and I have a friend in it so I was just wondering. I'll have to do some research on Unitarian Universalists.
