National rivalries.. will cease.. racial.. prejudice will be replaced by racial amity.. The causes of religious strife.. economic barriers.. distinction between classes will be obliterated. The enormous energy dissipated and wasted on war.. will be consecrated to.. human inventions.. productivity.. to the extermination of disease, to the extension of scientific research, to raising the standard of physical health.. sharpening.. the human brain, to the exploitation of the unused and unsuspected resources of the planet, to the prolongation of human life, and to the furtherance of any other agency that can stimulate the intellectual, the moral, and spiritual life of the entire human race. (107:1)

A world federal system, ruling the whole earth and exercising unchallengeable authority over its unimaginably vast resources.. a system in which Force is made the servant of Justice, whose life is sustained by its universal recognition of one God and by its allegiance to one common Revelation-- such is the goal towards which humanity, impelled by the unifying forces of life, is moving." (Shoghi Effendi).. (107:2)
