"If all people would practice the Golden Rule: "Do unto others as you would
have them do unto you" we can not imagine any better form and foundation
for the end of war, a spiritual solution to the economic problem, and the
establishment of a universal and everlasting Kingdom of justice and peace on
earth for all mankind. (From the website of Universal House of Justice of Baha'i Faith):

But do good to him, therefore add to his days of happiness as you add to your own. Do not
wrong or hate your neighbor, for it is not him that you wrong, you wrong yourself. But love him,
for The Great Spirit (Moneto) loves him also as he loves you."
(Shawnee)
