Dear anon,
Please consider my words,>You know well that before Bahaullah's declaration about Aristotle as "the well known man of knowledge" Kepler & Galileo had rejected Aristotle's theories about celestial sciences and numerous discussions & debates have been examined amongst well-educated persons of the era. According to our present knowledge That was the time when human knowledge had been started to correct its errors of understanding the facts of the universe, but instead of Kepler or Galileo, Bahaullah admires a philosopher of old ages and gives him a title of "the well known man of knowledge" and an inspired person from the Divine knowledge, so very essential for you to believe all theories of Aristotle if you accept inspiration of Bahaullah a true Divinely exactness. <
You are a well-educated person & know well that if you prefer a person certainly you accept his theories or otherwise may be possible that you are admiring him in misconception. Basics of religion never change except social practices. As God says in Holy Quran,äHe has prescribed for you the religion which He enjoined on Noah, and which We have revealed on thee, and which We enjoined on Abraham and moses and Jesus, saying, Remain steadfast in obedience, and be not divided theirin. Hard upon the idolaters in that to which thou callest them. Allah chooses for Himself him who turns to Him.ä (Al-Shura-42/13)
With regards,
Munir A. Qurershi.
