IV. BIOGRAPHICAL AND HISTORICAL; AMBASSADOR TO HUMANITY V. A SERIES OF ILLUSTRATIVE STUDIES BEARING ON COMPARATIVE RELIGION BAHAI BIBLIOGRAPHY INTRODUCTION TO MEN AND WOMEN OF GOODWILL IN THE BRITISH EMPIRE _A Message (reprinted by permission) from the Religious Society of Friends_ We find ourselves to-day in the midst of what may prove to be the fiercest conflict in the history of the human race. Whatever may be our view of the processes which have led to its inception, we have now to face the fact that war is proceeding upon a terrific scale and that our own country is involved in it. We recognize that our Government has made most strenuous efforts to preserve peace, and has entered into the war under a grave sense of duty to a smaller State, towards which we had moral and treaty obligations. While, as a Society, we stand firmly to the belief that the method of force is no solution of any question, we hold that the present moment is not one for criticism, but for devoted service to our nation. |
