“ The earth is but one country and Mankind its citizens. ”
The earth is but one country and mankind its citizens
~ Bahá'u'lláh
Religious fanaticism and hatred are a world-devouring fire, whose violence none can quench.
The utterance of God is a lamp, whose light is these words: Ye are the fruits of one tree, and the leaves of one branch. Deal ye one with another with the utmost love and harmony, with friendliness and fellowship. ... So powerful is the light of unity that it can illuminate the whole earth.
We desire the good of the world and the happiness of the nations that the bonds of affection and unity between the sons of men should be strengthened... what harm is there in this?... these fruitless strifes, these ruinous wars shall pass away, and the 'Most Great Peace' shall come.
