Core Axiom: “The earth is but one country, and mankind its citizens.” — Baháʼu’lláh (1817–1892).
Epistemic Framework: Progressive Revelation—the belief that religious truth is not static or final, but continuously revealed across human history to match humanity’s evolutionary development.
The Harmony of Science and Religion
One of the most striking tenets of Baháʼí philosophy is the explicit declaration that science and religion are two wings of a single bird: “Should a man try to fly with the wing of religion alone he would quickly fall into the quagmire of superstition, whilst on the other hand, with the wing of science alone he would also make no progress, but fall into the despairing slough of materialism.” Any religious dogma that contradicts proven empirical science must be abandoned.
The Structural Elimination of Prejudice
The Baháʼí teachings identify racial, national, and religious prejudice not merely as moral failings, but as systemic pathologies that threaten human survival. Long before modern international institutions, Baháʼu’lláh addressed letters to the reigning monarchs of Europe, America, and Asia, urging the establishment of a collective international tribunal and universal disarmament.
