..Certain races have assumed themselves to be superior to others and have taken for granted, on the principle of "survival of the fittest, " that this superiority gives them the right to exploit.. or even to exterminate, weaker races. (160:1) "Concerning the prejudice of race; it is an illusion, a superstition pure and simple, for God created us all of one race... In the beginning also there were no limits and boundaries between the different lands; no part of the earth belonged more to one people than to another.. Why should man invent such prejudice?. (160:2) The only real difference lies in the degree of faithfulness.. to the laws of God. (161:1) The lovers of mankind, these are the superior men, of whatever nation, creed or color they may be." ('Abdul-Baha)
(161:2)
