In the Baha'i faith, how many months are there in a year?
This religion appeared only in the 19th century so one could consider it a new one – in comparison with the three prevalent ones. The religion is interesting in many aspects. It's a monotheistic religion with some traits of Islam and the main subjects of the faith are the oneness of God and of the human race. There is also a stunning fact that Baha'i have 19 months in a year, besides each month is given a name of one of the various God's attributes such as Knowledge or Beauty.

Johnny Rock, that's because it doesn't follow your commandments which many Christians don't.

I don’t and am only aware of it because I was in a toddlers group which had an American whose parents were of The Baha’i faith.

Michele Barnett, I think I could live in Texas then. I'm getting too old to deal with -30 degree weather, here in Canada. It doesn't get that cold where I live, but it's the idea of it. I could live with summer all year round
