Hi Stuart,

You raise an interesting point about "perfect errors". An example that comes to mind is the test of faith that Abraham subjected his followers to, which is documented in the Kitab-i-Iqan by Baha'u'llah. Very interesting and mysterious concept.

I still do not believe the Manifestations of God make errors per se. I think "infallibility" is pretty straightforward. Having a Manifestation of God say something which doesn't end up happening is, I believe, more a test of faith than anything else.

Just my two cents... again, a very interesting and thought provoking concept in my humble opinion...
