Discrimination
The Bahá’í Writings . . . answer the question of minorities with a call to "unity in diversity," in Mr. Eide's words "pluralism in togetherness" . . . To preserve and honor diversity without making differences a cause for conflict requires a new way of thinking, based on respect for the rights of every individual. This new way of thinking, characterized some years ago as a "culture of human rights," must be developed and supported by human rights education.

Quote of the Day
Kamal 2 Sultan 182 B.E.
Special regard must be paid to agriculture. Although it hath been mentioned in the fifth place, unquestionably it precedeth the others. Agriculture is highly developed in foreign lands, however in Persia it hath so far been grievously neglected. It is hoped that His Majesty the Shah -- may God assist him by His grace -- will turn his attention to this vital and important matter.
