Where do the prophets of the Baha'i from Persia fit into the lives of angels on Earth? If at all.

I'm not well versed on Bahai's except to the extent I know they are a peaceful and tolerant group living in a land where they've been persecuted.
As to prophecy - the relationship between source and prophet can only be determined via the accuracy of the prophecy

I think I misused the word Prophet, at least in the sense that you interpreted it. I suppose the better word would be their "fathers." I do not believe that their faith's fathers prophesied much of anything other than tolerance of everyone of good faith. Their unique belief that I was interested in is that most Abrahamic faith's end time prophecies are fulfilled by the coming of the next Abrahamic faith. Thus the Jews end times was satisfied by Jesus, Christians by the coming of Mohammed, and Islam by the coming of the Bab. While I realize that this is not true in the context of the Revelation Code and your place in things, is there some truth to it?
And of course the core question: was the Bab or Baha'u'llah an angel as Christ, Mohammed, and so many others were?

I'd have to know more than I do in order to answer intelligently. Keep in mind, I've been in skin since 29 AD. So, unless its relevant to my particular issues - it isn't floating between my ears.
That said, the truth will be the same wherever you find it and no one has a monopoly on it.
What gives me the edge is that I know more of it than others. One would expect this to be the case and so it is.
As I said, I know little of the Bahais.
