Can't We All Have A Peace?

In religious studies we are reading Baha’u’llah: A Short Biography. Throughout this biography we get to understand Baha’u’llah’s faith and why he believes in it. The Baha’i is the religion or faith that was established and pushed forth by Baha’u’llah. This faith is based on unity and compassion. It is the faith of unifying but having religions excel and move forward. What strikes me interesting about this religion is that Baha’u’llah believes in a reoccurring system of faith. He believes that god has spoken to not only him but other messengers of the faith. He is not trying push religious ideology onto people however stating that religion evolves or that faith evolves. Religious faith has different eras. If this is so then the system of symbols must be all over the place. It incorporates different faiths and the symbols of those religions. This is why their churches have symbols of different religions reflecting the unity that should be perpetuated by the faith. Faith should be what one believes in, whether that be a god, idle, toy, or comic book character, people should follow what is in their heart while understanding that there should be peace among all.
