Oneness of Religion

Corsort with the followers of every religion in a

spirit of friendliness and fellowship. ~Baha'i Faith

In reality, there is only one religion, the religion of God. This one religion is continually evolving, and each particular religious system represents a stage in the evolution of the whole. The Bahá'í Faith represents the current stage in the evolution of religion.

Diversity

A rainbows beauty is in its diversity, the same is true of humanity- R.George

Baha'is view racism as America's most vital and challenging issue. Baha'u'llah, the prophet-founder of the Baha'i Faith, taught that the world's peace, prosperity and well being ultimately depend on the recognition of the oneness of humanity.

(Quoted from www.bahai.us)

Hear no evil, and see no evil, abase not thyself, neither sigh and weep. Speak no evil, that thou
mayest not hear it spoken unto thee, and magnify not the faults of others that thine own faults may not appear great; and wish not the abasement of anyone, that thine own abasement be not exposed. Live then the days of thy life, that are less than a fleeting moment, with thy thoughts pure, and thy nature sanctified, so that, free of content, thou mayest put away this mortal frame, and repair unto the mystic paradise and abide in the eternal kingdom for evermore.

~Baha'i Faith
