"Religion is the light of the world..."

Religion is the light of the world, and the progress, achievement, and happiness of man result from obedience to the laws set down in the holy Books.

“…a great unifying, cleansing force in the world…”

Put all your beliefs into harmony with science; there can be no opposition, for truth is one. When religion, shorn of its superstitions, traditions, and unintelligent dogmas, shows its conformity with science, then will there be a great unifying, cleansing force in the world which will sweep before it all wars, disagreements, discords and struggles—and then will mankind be united in the power of the Love of God. 
- ‘Abdu’l-Baha  (From a talk, November 12, 1911, Paris; ‘Paris Talks’)
