The topic to discuss here is that of Open Boarders for refugees and a vision for the future.
As a Baha'i there is a picture of what must and will unfold in this world before we can find peace. Unity of the human race is a pre-requisite
Part of this picture was given back in the mid to late 1800's, when Baha'u'llah wrote to all the kings and rulers of the world and advised them what must happen if they wanted to secure peace, no one replied and He wrote a 2nd time and this is an extract from the letter to Queen Victoria;
"....O rulers of the earth! Be reconciled among yourselves, that ye may need no more armaments save in a measure to safeguard your territories and dominions.
Beware lest ye disregard the counsel of the All-Knowing, the Faithful.
Be united, O kings of the earth, for thereby will the tempest of discord be stilled amongst you, and your peoples find rest, if ye be of them that comprehend. Should any one among you take up arms against another, rise ye all against him, for this is naught but manifest justice. Thus did We exhort you in the Tablet sent down aforetime, and We admonish you once again to follow that which hath been revealed by Him Who is the Almighty, the All-Wise....."
Humanity did not follow that advice and now we have had the 1st and 2nd world wars, which Baha'u'llah foretold in these tablets.
We now live in an era where terroisim has taken hold, many areas of the world still have conflict, the result is refugees fleeing and following on from the quote above, Baha'u'llah wrote this;
"......Should anyone seek refuge with you, extend unto him your protection and betray him not. Thus doth the Pen of the Most High counsel you, as bidden by Him Who is the All-Knowing, the All-Informed....."
So the questions are;
Should all Refugees be granted safe passage?
Do you see a time when we will be free citizens of the world, but residents of a Nation?
Can you see a time when the Nations will work together, restrict arms for internal order only and hand over world control to a world elected body, a body that will have the ability to cut off rouge uprisings?
I am happy to discuss your thoughts and in the process share more of the vision that I have embraced and that I see needs to and will unfold in the years to come.
