Will the world ever be unified?

I believe humanity is far too diverse ever to be unified. Instead of being unified, maybe someday we can at least be peacefully diverse.

"White doves and gray doves associate with each other in perfect friendship. Man draws imaginary lines on the planet and says, "This is a Frenchman, a Musselman, an Italian!" Upon these differences wars are waged. Men are fighting for the possession of the earth. They fight for that which becomes their graves, their cemeteries, their tombs.
In reality all are members of one human family -- children of one Heavenly Father. Humanity may be likened unto the vari-colored flowers of one garden. There is unity in diversity. Each sets off and enhances the other's beauty."
(Abdu'l-Baha, Divine Philosophy, p. 25)

Do not put your trust in nobles, nor in the son of earthling man, to whom no salvation belongs." (Psalm 146:3)
(Psalm 62:9) Indeed the sons of earthling man are an exhalation, The sons of mankind are a lie. When laid upon the scales they are all together lighter than an exhalation.​

(Psalm 118:9) It is better to take refuge in Jehovah Than to trust in nobles..............
And in the days of those kings the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that will never be brought to ruin. And the kingdom itself will not be passed on to any other people. It will crush and put an end to all these kingdoms, and it itself will stand to times indefinite;........... Daniel 2;44
(Psalm 110:5) Jehovah himself at your right hand Will certainly break kings to pieces on the day of his anger.
(Isaiah 60:12) For any nation and any kingdom that will not serve you will perish; and the nations themselves will without fail come to devastation.

We deliver!

And now you have at least TWO Baha'is commenting here! :)

World unity is not only desireable IOV, but inevitable!

It's as a famous Baha'i saying goes:

THE KINGDOM OF GOD ON EARTH
.....(Some assembly required.).....

We're working on it! :)

Best,

Bruce
