Did you know that Baha’i worship services are for Baha’is only?Although religion is meant to create love and unity it represents probably the largest group of ‘us and thems’ on the planet.
Some religions instead compete with one another for the number 1 spot and some leaders teach their followers that any other religion but theirs is satanic thus creating prejudices and hate between religions. There have even been wars so deep has the prejudice and hatred become.
But does it have to be like this?
Outwardly the different religions have different customs and traditions but inwardly they all strive for a higher purpose.
What would be the harm if we prayed and meditated and visited each other’s places of worship? In my travels I’ve visited Hindu Temples, Christian Churches, Muslim Mosques, Jewish Synagogues and Buddhist Pagodas and I found they all believe in truth and goodness.
So why don’t the religionists visit and worship together and establish friendship and fellowship because they all teach love and unity?
My wife and I who are of a different Faith have been visiting our local Catholic Church and we have made so many friends. They are so welcoming and loving. I believe if each religion extends true friendship to the other religions the time will come when diversity of religion will cease and we will be as one family.
What do you think?
