"... That the divers communions of the earth, and the manifold systems of religious belief, should never be allowed to foster the feelings of animosity among men, is, in this Day, of the essence of the Faith of God and His Religion. These principles and laws, these firmly-established and mighty systems, have proceeded from one Source, and are rays of one Light. That they differ one from another is to be attributed to the varying requirements of the ages in which they were promulgated..." – Bahá'u'lláh, Epistle to the Son of the Wolf, ¶17

Consort with the followers of all religions in a spirit of friendliness and fellowship." – Bahá'u'lláh, Tablets of Bahá'u'lláh, Bishárát (Glad-Tidings). "... That the divers communions of the earth, and the manifold systems of religious belief, should never be allowed to foster the feelings of animosity among men, is, in this Day, of the essence of the Faith of God and His Religion. These principles and laws, these firmly-established and mighty systems, have proceeded from one Source, and are rays of one Light. That they differ one from another is to be attributed to the varying requirements of the ages in which they were promulgated..." – Bahá'u'lláh, Epistle to the Son of the Wolf, ¶17
