…the principle of the oneness of humankind, as proclaimed by
Bahá’u’lláh, is inconsistent with any attempt to impose uniformity. Its watchword
is unity in diversity. To accept it is to embrace the rich diversity that
characterizes the human race. To promote it implies helping every soul to
develop and express his or her God-given talents and capacities in service to
humanity.
(The Universal House of
Justice, from a message dated 28 July 2008 to the Baha’is in Iran)
