    The only solution is to love all mankind

    The problem as I see it is us. We all want a quick fix. Even religious people are amongst the most superstitious thinking Christ returning or the Mahdi in Islam will fix things up. We live in complete denial. To fix our civilisation up my religion tells me it will take humans centuries to...

    The only solution is to love all mankind

    Baha’u’llah said that all the nations need to come together and to consult on how to establish peace. That time is fast approaching. Could happen any day but things will have to get a lot worse first. The time must come when the imperative necessity for the holding of a vast, an all-embracing...

    The only solution is to love all mankind

    Firstly we do not follow or support every person but there are good people who we have much in common with. As to tyrants and oppressors we believe in collective security. But it is up to a united world to enforce.

    The only solution is to love all mankind

    Baha’is don’t really get involved in negative things like protests. For example instead of being ‘anti-racist’ Baha’is will deal with that by promoting the oneness of humanity or ‘black lives matter as ‘racial harmony’. So instead of being against darkness Baha’is will use light.

    What practical function does religion hold?

    I think to counter that would be to say we were created pure and without fault or sin but that God has always sent us Educators or Prophets to guide us. However, He does not force us to follow their guidance so a Prophet may counsel us to love one another but we choose hate instead and wars etc...

    What is God's highest priority?

    God does not need us or anything so I believe His ambitions are for us alone, that we may be happy. The primary purpose, the basic objective, in laying down powerful laws and setting up great principles and institutions dealing with every aspect of civilization, is human happiness; and human...

    What practical function does religion hold?

    We are doing that now and descending further into wars and chaos. We have chosen man’s way instead of God’s ways and that is leading us i feel to destruction. God tells us to be at peace with one another but we think of brilliant ideas like nuclear weapons. We need God’s guidance to teach us...

    The only solution is to love all mankind

    I agree with much of what you say and that justice is so important. There is so much oppression on earth. My dear wife her family lives in Myanmar where there is civil war and it is too painful for her to see so much suffering. Yet no one comes to help these victims of injustice. That’s my point...

    The only solution is to love all mankind

    It’s difficult to say something that has never yet been tried won’t work. We can always try it and if it doesn’t work or we don’t like it then we can go back to our warring ways.

    The only solution is to love all mankind

    In the circumstances you mentioned that is where justice is the form of love that is exercised in order to protect all humanity from the aggressor, tyrant and murderer. As to love not being able to be taught. Did you not learn this love from Jesus where He gave a new commandment to love one...

    The only solution is to love all mankind

    I agree it’s not easy but that’s because it’s new to many , not because it is difficult to achieve in itself. Gandhi of course practised love for all and was a saint and example to all humanity. You might like to explain more about his concept of love for all humanity.

    The only solution is to love all mankind

    Love for all humanity is the ideal but it also includes a wider loyalty than humanity has ever known.

    The only solution is to love all mankind

    It’s a concept like i suppose nationalism except the loyalty is to humanity. So it’s a wider loyalty. So how did people learn to love their country? It began from a concept that was promoted until it became part of each countries culture. Loyalty to humanity works the same way but without...

    The only solution is to love all mankind

    I’m talking about how to remove prejudices between people and i believe that education to love all humanity will be a step forward towards peace. There are many other groups and people beginning to realise that treaties and pacts aren’t changing things and looking at how we are educated. If we...

    The only solution is to love all mankind

    It can be group learning without a lecturer.

    The only solution is to love all mankind

    Removing prejudice involves accepting all humans as equals regardless of religion, race and nationality. That’s nothing to do with religion.

    Humans will never be perfect but we can always strive for excellence.

    The only solution is to love all mankind

    Yes true but you could still ‘choose’ to blindly believe that even though you did not understand it.

    The only solution is to love all mankind

    You must really have my religion on your brain as this is about loving all humanity as a panacea for ridding the world of prejudice, hate and war. I bet if you sit on the psychiatrists couch and he shows you a number of cards with a figure of a black blog on each and asks you what it is i know...
