What are the Bah teachings on morality, drugs, alcohol, etc.?
Human society can only exist and flourish if its members learn and obey the very real laws that govern its existence. “Morality” is a code of conduct, which if followed by the generality of society, will allow that society to flourish, and if not, will cause it to collapse. The Bah’ ethical teachings toward which the Baha’is reach, include a high degree of moral behavior. Bah’s are not allowed to lie, are required to abstain from alcohol or drug use, unless ordered by a doctor; and are instructed to lead a chaste and holy life and abstain from sex outside the bonds of matrimony.
