    Should the oneness of humanity be taught in all schools worldwide

    The original natives of many countries should have equal rights to everyone else is what I believe. White people have often oppressed and or invaded the natives and treated them very badly. One example is the stolen generations of aborigines in Australia. Injustices done need to be remedied as...

    Should the oneness of humanity be taught in all schools worldwide

    We are all imperfect as humans. So we try and look with a sin covering eye and not at peoples shortcomings because we have our own. But if a wolf was intent on destroying a flock of sheep not to stop it would be an injustice to the sheep. For the sheep’s protection the wolf would need to be kept...

    Should the oneness of humanity be taught in all schools worldwide

    No. It’s up to the world to decide whether they take the best of each system or establish a new one. I would think part of a better system would be based upon universal human rights and recognition of the oneness of humanity above national interest. So in the new world humanity not national...

    Should the oneness of humanity be taught in all schools worldwide

    Incorrect. We do not discriminate against anyone. But we do not endorse homosexuality or same sex marriage two entirely different things. We don’t endorse holy war so should Muslims say we are prejudiced against them? No they have their belief and we ours. But we don’t interfere.however in our...

    Should the oneness of humanity be taught in all schools worldwide

    We don’t add fuel to divisive issues. We are building a world civilisation as this one collapses. Putting a bandaid on it won’t help as it is cancerous with division and prejudices. A new world needs to be built upon universal human rights and the oneness of humanity and that’s what we’re doing.

    Should the oneness of humanity be taught in all schools worldwide

    It’s not a matter of convincing it’s a matter of reality. We have a united world community comprised of a cross section of the human race which gets along. Your world is daily descending into conflicts and war. Likely a third one. Go figure why you guys can’t get your act together but Baha’is...

    Should the oneness of humanity be taught in all schools worldwide

    Another extremely important point about the oneness of humanity. Not to force our beliefs on others. I come across this too often where one group wants to discredit another group for not accepting its viewpoint. This is the problem the world has. USA wants to force democracy on other nations...

    Should the oneness of humanity be taught in all schools worldwide

    Just because a religion doesn’t endorse homosexuality doesn’t mean we discriminate against gays. Just because a Muslim or Jew doesn’t accept the Baha’i faith does not mean they discriminate against Baha’is, you are claiming that lack of endorsement is discriminatory which is patently false and...

    Should the oneness of humanity be taught in all schools worldwide

    I don’t get involved in politics because it’s forbidden by Baha’i law and it’s divisive. So that would be a no and Baha’i involvement or influence? I’m not sure what you’re referring to specifically but no I would definitely not oppose.

    Should the oneness of humanity be taught in all schools worldwide

    Not at all. I was first taught about the Baha’i Faith by gay Baha’is. They are human beings like anyone of us.

    Should the oneness of humanity be taught in all schools worldwide

    We have consultative ngo status with the UN and UNESCO and most governments and share public discourse with governments on matters of concern to the community. We date back to the League of Nations. Many ideals such as the oneness of humanity have been promoted by the UN in such things as the...

    Should the oneness of humanity be taught in all schools worldwide

    Well I believe that teaching children that all humanity is one family and not to discriminate or hold prejudices against anyone will have a good effect on them. If you compare with organisations like Hamas who teach to hate and to kill and rape Jews you can see the results of that type of...

    Should the oneness of humanity be taught in all schools worldwide

    Nothing. You are fellow equal human beings. You have every right to believe or disbelieve. That is not our business. Onenesss of humanity means to treat with love and respect all people believers or not so it’s inconsequential you disbelieve in God or such. You are a fellow human that’s all...

    Should the oneness of humanity be taught in all schools worldwide

    We Baha’is follow the major religions but not the man made doctrines or interpretations of the clergy. The Bab and Baha’u’llah have always said that God will guide those who are sincere. We only teach children the essence and virtues of religion and moral stories from other religions. They are...

    Should the oneness of humanity be taught in all schools worldwide

    I was speaking about Christ’s resurrection which Christians believe to have been bodily but we believe were visions and spiritual awakenings of the disciples. After Christ died His disciples had doubt about His divine station but after 3 days they became confirmed as to His true station. It was...

    Should the oneness of humanity be taught in all schools worldwide

    To add to my previous post re interpretation. Baha’u’llah states: Those divine verses concerning the Resurrection and the Hour, whether they were revealed in past scriptures or in the Qur'an, are for the most part to be interpreted figuratively. "And none knows its interpretation, save only...

    Revelation 5:1-5 NIV [1] … Then I saw in the right hand of him who sat on the throne a scroll with writing on both sides and sealed with seven seals. [2] And I saw a mighty angel proclaiming in a loud voice, “Who is worthy to break the seals and open the scroll?” [3] But no one in heaven or on...

    Should the oneness of humanity be taught in all schools worldwide

    The Baha’i World Community offered its experience as a global community to the United Nations in 1986 so it’s up to world leaders to decide for themselves if they wish look at using some or all of it. The Foundation is the oneness of mankind. Its existence is yet another convincing proof of the...
